Call for rival SA
This motion, in the name of the Socialist Party, is to be moved at a meeting of Notts Socialist Alliance next week
The Notts Socialist Alliance regrets the decision of the Socialist Alliance national constitutional conference to move away from a federal, inclusive approach that characterised the Socialist Alliance initially and to adopt a centralised structure, ‘winner takes all’ approach.
The Socialist Alliance needs to maintain the maximum possible principled unity, whilst at the same time preserving the rights of all those who participate.
The Notts Socialist Alliance agrees to:
- reject the new national constitution
- continue to work in a pluralist way, with all significant viewpoints within the alliance having the right of representation in bodies of the alliance
- contact other alliances that wish to retain a federal structure with a view to establishing a genuine alliance nationally.
