I would very much like to know my way around an expensive wine rack.

I strongly suspect that the 72 "delegates" were actually delegated by no-one but themselves......from this report I think we can probably confidently say they've got 72 members who are in any sense active.

Worthy of the Daily Mail itself that one CR! Any evidence WHATSOEVER for your 'strong suspicions' and 'confidence'?

Its a bit different tho, as the LP although on a rightward shift were actually a mass party with a significant power basis in its own right.

Solidarity are just the SWP and the Sheridanistas, with the SWP being by far the largest grouping. What the CWI hopes to gain by this unholy alliance I'll never know.

Yes but Militant were supposed to be revolutionary marxists and they came across as more reformist than some Labour lefties - I've said it many times, but the Falklands/Malvinas was their nadir.

You are right though - the Solidarity escapade is totally bewildering in terms of where CWI think they are going.
