    The only trouble with that is that SNP and Labour are not socialist, as we define it, and never have been. Both these parties only want to manage capitalism not change the basis of how society is organised. I suggest you read some of the introductory articles on this website…

    Does the figure of 744,374 include visits to the forum?

    Yes, but excludes repeat visits to individual pages and visits by spambots. Including repeat visits to pages the total is 982,752 made by 366,696 users. The most popular forum thread was the "Science for Communists" one but that's at around 100 in the charts…
