The signals of panic are all over everything that comes out of Galloways WPB these days. They have practically zero activists on the ground and are a party that now exists mainly on social media, mostly via Galloways weekly chat show. The WPB are now effectively a one man band, a cult of personality and little else. With Galloway having now exiled himself overseas following his brief detention under the deeply reactionary (and ludicrously noscriptd) "anti-terror" laws these problems will only intensify. Now he is floating alliances with the hiedous Green party we can clearly see the opportunism for which Galloway is notorious. That a party which calls themselves 'common sense' socialists could be floating alliances with the Greens is a total capitulation.

No one can claim not to know what the Greens are all about now. They have been in power in Scotland where they supported the destruction of the Scottish industrial base and prioritised gender ideology to the extent where they supported putting men in women's prisons. They have run Brighton and Bristol councils where their record was just as anti worker as Labour or the Tories. Polanski is on record as being a rabid supporter of NATO and the war on Russia. Galloway has previously (and correctly) criticised the war on Russia but now wants to align with its biggest supporters on the left. So are all Mr Galloways positions so easily reversed? If so, why should any worker trust a single thing he says.

It also must be said that the Greens everywhere oppose nuclear power, fossil fuels, and the use of petro-chemicals, a primitivist clarion call for deindustrialisation. How can WPB square that with 'socialism'? Only one answer, blatant opportunism, turbo charged by a realisation that the party is sinking into the dustbin of historical irrelevance. This is just further proof that all those who seek to recreate British social democracy will end up sinking into the worst kind of opportunism. The working class deserves much better than this farce.
