I abhor the SWP tribute acts now running the Labour Party - their antisemitism, their Russophilia, their Assad apologism, their simplistic anti-west positioning. I despair that Labour has been turned into an anti-EU party against the express wishes of its members. I am
frustrated by the vacuity of the calls for nationalisation as if it magically fixed problems in public services; the dishonesty of misrepresenting parliamentary votes to make internal opponents look bad; and the sheer self harm of the constant attacks on past Labour governments
which did so much good. I want to see the back of Corbyn, Milne, Murray, McDonnell and all their backroom bullies and sycophants. I want to see those who have defended them despite knowing how dreadful they are apologising and fading into the background. I recognise the Corbyn
faction now has an iron grip on every lever of power in the party and wrenching it away from them is going to be incredibly hard if it is possible at all. Given all of that, I struggle daily to justify to myself maintaining my membership and continuing to contribute my subs. But
it's my party too, and today I refuse to abandon it to this bunch of fakers, haters and fools. Who knows what might happen tomorrow. But today I'm still fighting.
