BBC Radio 4 Documentary Wed April 16th 8.45PM

In a new series on BBC Radio 4, Geoffrey Wall looks at the history of the Socialist Workers.

A former member of the SWP, he asks how well the party is surviving in the 21st century.

BBC radio programmes can be listened to for a period after broadcast-
simply go to

for a chance to listen to part one, which was broadcast last week.

SWP member Eamonn McCann

Some people might think it amusing to make a few stereotypical comments here about the SWP, selling papers , "building" for things like marches, and Tommy Sheridan's sex life , but there'll be none of that on this event notice, which is entirely serious.
Move along now , nothing to see here, just listen to the show (buy a paper?).
