FergusD I think you are more or less spoton. But just to say that it was never ruled out that the ULA could have played a role in setting up a new party within 6 months or a year of it being established. If the struggles among working class people had continued to intensify, which was possible, instead of lull that developed primarily as a result of the trade union leadership, the project of building a new party could also been progressed. This didn’t happen and understandably some people are now frustrated, but I dispute any attempt to portray the Socialist Party as being dishonest or anything but consistent in what we’ve said about the ULA.
