Is it dead?

[seagull]

I wasn't aware that the TUSC had died. Is there conformation as there website is still running and the last news update was in June

[Village Idiot]

The website doesn't have any news of the organisation itself. If TUSC is really still active, they'd tell us about it. They're probably putting it on 'standby' - keeping it registered as a political party until the next round of elections. TUSC activists have probably reverted back to TU work or to the Left sects.

As an aside - It will be interesting to see how the Left capitalise on the upcoming public sector cuts - will they grow and expand as a consequence? The cuts are something that the BNP and other nationalist groups should pay close attention to as well.

I think only the Socialist party have the abiltiy to grow and expand with their links to the Unions. i agree that the nationalist groups should pay close attention to the cuts. I think the EIP will take this on

I used to be a socialist, no honestly. I was bought up in a mining community where for the most part times were hard and loyalty to unions socialism and the Labour party were a given. At that time it worked but things move on. Deep down I still belive in socialist principles but I'm a pragmatist and I can see that Labour have been Tory since 1997 and we havent had a socialist government for...well, since the 1960's, in fact Michael Foot was probably the last socialist leader of the Labour party. Which makes me think the future for socialism is, bleak.

There are a lot of us ex socialists about red. I think the future for organisations like the socialist party are bleak because they are stuck in a marxist-leninist time warp. They appear to have the inability to adapt to the modern world.

TUSC was barely alive in the first place, it was just a front for the totally unelectable Socialist Workers Party. With SWP leaders like Martin Smith and Weyman Bennett getting themselves arrested on a regular basis at anti-EDL demos, they are hardly doing their credibility any good.

It is interesting that both the SWP and the Socialist party used the TUSC as a front organisation. These two groups hate each other but work together to further their aims. It is a shame that nationalists can't do the same.

You destroyed the modern world, you were elected in 1945 and singularly did what Germany couldn't...you brought this country to it's knees through a nationalisation experiment, which anhiliated all our industry....I'll have an example of where nationalised industry worked then?....North Korea?

The NHS was made for us, it has attracted everyone else to this country as part of the benefits package.

Yes your right Nationalised industry is subsidised by the public purse and it doesn't have any share holders, but it does turn employees into lefties who vote Lab governments in and the whole thing becomes a vicious circle.
