Jump To Comment: 1 2 3I 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.
John Newsinger is scheduled to speak at the Irish Labour History Society conference on the anniversary of James Connollys execution on the Saturday 21st in Liberty Hall so he was asked to speak at this meeting the night before
