The left wing weekly paper The Socialist, formerly Militant, says that the party associated with it, the Socialist Party of England and Wales, saw its Women and LGBTQ+ Groups meet on 14th January. The organisation says “With over 80 people taking part, the meeting opened with a discussion on the family and the origins of gender oppression, sexism and homophobia. Time was also dedicated to discussing our perspectives for the current political and economic situation in the UK and how this impacts women and LGBTQ+ people.” The paper goes on “There was a large new young layer in attendance, reflecting not only how many young people today see capitalism for the broken system it is, but also that the Socialist Party is able to explain why this oppression came to exist and point a way forward to how it can be defeated.”
