beware to people who want to live without leaders. They've got big hands, skirt their shite, what is now happening worldwide, is far too important to allow political descendents of 1921, to infiltrate and lead (destroy)it.
for anarchy.........

First of all, the Revolutionary Communist Group/FIGHT RACISM! FIGHT IMPERIALISM! has absolutely nothing to do with the RCP, which by the way liquidated itself at least five years ago. (You can see the completely bourgeois rightwing rubbish their remenants produce at their trendy site 'Spiked' www.spiked.org, have a look in their 'anti-capitalism section especially)

Secondly we don't operate any "fronts" unlike some organisations (eg the SWP's Globalise Resistance). We do not hide the fact we are communists because we are not ashamed of who we are.

Thirdly the RCG has nothing to do with old Trotters (we're not Trotskyist)

So wrong on all counts!

NB, the public meeting is this Saturday 3 November, 4 which is a Sunday.

FIGHT RACISM! FIGHT IMPERIALISM!
STOP LABOUR'S IMPERIALIST WAR

As US and British forces bomb Afghanistan night and day, the British Labour government continues to let the world know that this is not merely a revenge attack by George Bush's government. This is Britain's war too and Labour is setting about it with jingoistic determination.

Blair led the 'diplomatic initiative' which preceded the start of military aggression, building up the 'alliance against terrorism' through bullying and bribing any state which might otherwise have dared to dissent. Home Secretary David Blunkett announced a series of repressive measures to 'combat terrorism'. Most of these measures, in reality, will be used to further attack and criminalise asylum-seekers.

If 'democracy' and 'civilisation' are measured by the presence of a McDonalds on every street and are to be paid for by the oppression of half the world, we are not 'with them', but against them. We are against the imperialist war on Afghanistan; we are against George Bush and the Republican Party's 'crusade' and we are against the imperialist war-mongering British Labour Party.

Labour's barbarity is not new. Every single previous Labour government has been willing to use military means to defend the interests of British imperialism:

Between 1945 and 1951 Labour:

*Brutally put down the liberation struggle in Malaya
*Assisted the restoration of French colonial rule in Vietnam and Dutch rule in Indonesia
*Blockaded Iran, following the nationalisation of the Anglo-Persian oil company
*Ruthlessly exploited the British empire in Africa to aid post-war reconstruction in Britain

Between 1964 and 1970 it:

*Unconditionally supported the US onslaught on Vietnam
*Defended apartheid South Africa and on every occasion used its veto to block sanctions
*Sent troops into the north of Ireland

Between 1974 and 1979 it:

*Continued to defend apartheid South Africa at the UN
*Supported the Shah of Iran as he faced a popular uprising against his tyrannical regime
*Began the sale of Hawk aircraft to Indonesia at the height of the genocidal war in East Timor

Back in opposition, it supported the war in the Falklands/Malvinas, and egged on the Tory government against Iraq during the 1991 Gulf War. Between 1997 and 1999, British forces dropped more bombs than they did in 18 years of Tory rule. The attack on Afghanistan is the fifth overseas military intervention Labour has organised. Anyone who remains a member of this racist, imperialist party demonstrates nothing but contempt for the working class and oppressed. This includes the ridiculous 'left wing' - Jeremy Corbyn, Tony Benn and so on who have no intention of challenging British imperialist power.

Building an effective anti-war movement means we have to challenge the Labour government and the Labour Party. As in the Gulf War, and during the onslaught on Yugoslavia, the SWP and the rest of the social democratic left are trying to prevent any criticism of Labour. Their strategy is to tailor any anti-war movement to what is acceptable to the narrow, self-interested sectarianism of the Labour left. It will police its so called 'broad based' movement to drive out any anti-imperialist tendency. It will prove once again that there is no crime that Labour can commit which will drive the social democratic left into open campaigning opposition. But it is clear that there can be no anti-war movement unless it is anti-imperialist and therefore anti-Labour. We have to break with the imperialist Labour Party now. This is the movement that Fight Racism! Fight Imperialism! is building. We call on all socialists and democrats to join us.

Fight Labour racism and imperialism!

FRFI! are of a much higher calibre than yer average Labour party supporting SWP type. The FRFI! are not "Trotskyists" if i understand their ideology, although they dont condemn him outright either.
on this point, bear in mind that the SWP are clearly "False Trotskyists", for they reject much of his ideology, and oddly enough they even dismiss the Marx-Engels Manifesto of 1848! funny "Marxists" the SWP, you might think! in the 80s they allied themselves with creepy christians at one point , and even now they admit such types to the party, more easily than they would a worker !
to hell with the SWP!, but if you want a better Marxist party to join (I dont personally ) try FRFI!

thanks for the invite-but no thanks, far too busy laughing at the spectacle of marx inspired sects slaggin' each other off again. thinks-handy hints for anarchists......

Anarchist mush doesn't do anything more than a bit of sniping. Which is why the SWP/GR have been able to systematically liquidate what was once quite a vibrant anti-capitalist movement and divert into harmless and respectable channels (appealing to the government to spend money on the welfare state instead of bombs, inviting old Jeremy Corbyn MP along etc).

They thought if they ignored the SWP/GR it would go away or all they had to do was a bit of sniping, but the opportunists are winning easily because they are well organised and well resourced and experienced and the movement was completely unprepared for the attack. We could see this in Brighton at the Labour Party conference where in the city that the 'anti-capitalist' movement developed in and became strong in, they were not even confident enough to be sure of being able to organise an even independently of GR's respectable one.

The RCG knows that to build a genuinely revolutionary, anti-imperialist anti-war movement we have got to battle those like the SWP who defend the imperialists all along the line. We don't underestimate them, we know it is a long and hard battle not just a small skirmish and that is why we are organising against them. We need to build a strong anti-imperialist movement that can withstand attack, we want to build links with different anti-imperialist struggles such as the one in Turkey where at the moment over 2,000 political prisoners of the Revolutionary Peoples Liberation Party-Front (DHKP-C, recently banned in Britain by the Labour imperialists), Communist Party of Turkey (Marxist-Leninist) (TKP (ML)) and Turkish Union of Revolutionary Communists (TIKB) are on hungerstrike against the fascist imperialist puppet regime.

FIGHT RACISM! FIGHT IMPERIALISM!

Unity is weakness! Anyone who disagrees with me is an authoritarian! Trotsky lives in a little box under my bed and he says you're all fakes..
