In a scene straight out of East Germany's Stasi playbook, a grandmother got a visit from two plainclothes police officers ? not for committing a crime, but for daring to criticise Labour councillors online.

Left-wing activists in Britain are less likely to work with their political opponents and more likely to think that those who think differently have been misled, a study has found. Leftists are intolerant? Who knew.

Toby Blair's Institute for Global Change has published a report that apparently tells Ed Miliband his Net Zero plans are unrealistic. But look closer and you find the same Green Blob pushing the same agenda, says Ben Pile.

I see the SWPhave called an event for that night also-very surprising..

I doubt very much if the SWP called their meeting in order to cut across the Socialist Party event. I know that the SWP don't have a good reputation on this kind of thing, but their own meeting is more likely to be hurt by the clash. It looks reasonably interesting but it has a lower profile platform and is on a subject with less immediate appeal. It seems to me more like an unfortunate coincidence.

The point of calling a rival meeting for sectarian reasons after all is to hurt somebody else's meeting, not to hurt your own. The only sectarian benefit which might accrue to the SWP from the clash is that their own less firmly attached supporters are less likely to go the SP event.
