Were they a small Trotskyist political party? edit

It looks to me that they were never a small Trotskyist political party as is claimed in the lead of the article but rather they were a group of fraudsters who pretended to be a small Trotskyist political party. Have they ever been a genuine party? Is the group of people who split with them (the Group of Proletarian Revolutionaries - Collectivists) a genuine political group?--JK the unwise 11:13, 9 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

  • No, I think that they were a genuine Trotskyist party, with a corrupt leadership. They seem to have been above board until 2000; in their warnings, the split and the Maoist group never claimed that they hadn't been a genuine CWI section. There's nothing clear on what happened to the split, but I suspect that they may have rejoined Workers Resistance - it's still listed as a member of the CWI, who has announced that they are rebuilding the section.

fair enough, this might become clearer if more information about the genuine activities of the group can be found.--JK the unwise 11:52, 9 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
No, the expelled people haven't rejoined Workers' Resistance. They've formed a new group - I don't know the name of it though. Homey 13:28, 9 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Apostrophe edit

Is it "Workers Resistance" or "Workers' Resistance"? The article uses both. I think the apostrophe version makes more grammatical sense. --Fang Aili talk 19:13, 4 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

GPRC edit

Group of Proletarian Revolutionaries Collectivists never was a part of WR. I begrounded GPRC independently of Vernik. But I really knew Vernik and in 1992 recommended it to Ted Grant's tendency (mea maxima culpa) . . . In 2003 I received information about the scam and sent it to my Western left-wing friends.
