    Trotsky's book is given a lot of analysis in The Experiment, I think the book even suggests at one point it could be thought of as a rebuttal to Trotsky's account.

    Why is this titled 'The Road to Socialism'?

    The title of this topic should be changed to reflect the article, but yep it is a good long read.

    Is the burden of taxation why employers are so keen on salary sacrifice schemes?

    I think there's two different uses of the word 'banner' being employed here.

    Topping reddit.com/r/socialism earlier today was an image of Glasgow May Day March. It pictured a horizontal red banner reading 'Our Flag Stays Red' with little yellow stars. This was described as a 'red bloc' but I believe it also appears on the facebook page of the 'Scottish Communists', a branch of the 'Communist Party' (Morning Star).https://www.reddit.com/r/socialism/comments/8hha7a/may_day_red_bloc_in_glasgow_scotland_today/Here's hoping the Marx and Engels banner of Glasgow SPGB branch saw the sunshine too!

    Comrades in Canada have requested a high definition photo/ scan of the 2013 trade-union type banner to adapt for their own purposes.

    Because the  Socialist Party is not based on bourgeois reformisma, bourgeoise nationalism,  and the so called national liberation, and we do not support Leninismbut this is a tautology. It is saying Turks based in London join marxist Leninist groups because those groups are nationalist. Why are Turks any more nationalist than Brits?

    According to Wikipedia

    Quote:
    In 1984, Boaks was injured in a second minor road traffic accident while getting off a bus. His death in hospital two years later was the result of complications from the head injuries sustained.

    Three members ran a small stall and handed out leaflets (surplus London election ones). Sunny day but the turnout for the march was pathetic. Without the Turkish, Kurdish and Tamil "Marxist-Leninists", some brandishing pictures of Stalin, there'd have been hardly anybody on it.  Hardly any trade unionists as such. In fact it was a "Marxist-Leninist" rather than a Trotskyist convention. Still, we met some old contacts and had some interesting conversations.There's an official TUC march and rally on Saturday 12 May at which there will be many, many more.

    How come Turks based in London join 'Marxist-Leninist' groups and not us?
