It's probably worth reminding people that the SWP has never fully addressed its handling (i.e. covering up and defending) of rapists and abusers within its own leadership - and their current leadership is mostly the *same* people as 2013-14. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

This article - and associated image - has now been updated with the amended demands of Palestinian organisers in Norwich.
