(en) Britain, Statement from Liberty & Solidarity 7th Conference has taken the decision to disband the organisation
Date
Thu, 27 Sep 2012 14:36:45 +0200
Liberty & Solidarity's 7th Biannual conference has taken the decision to disband the
organisation. We are still proud of what Liberty & Solidarity has achieved and we hope to
continue to work together towards shared goals, engaging with an ever broader range of
trade unionists and community activists. Our project, the empowerment of working people
within the workplace and society, remains the same. ---- Over the past four years of our
existence, L&S members up and down the country have gotten thoroughly involved in union
branches and residents groups. We hope we have made a positive impact, arguing for an
organising-based approach and for syndicalist ideas. We have learnt a lot through this
experience and it has undoubtedly shaped our perspective, with many of our younger members
having their first taste of working within the labour movement.
Consequently L&S has changed. Where as in 2008 we started out with the intent of forging a
platformist anarchist organisation, clearly now our politics are less aligned with
anarchism and far more with syndicalism. Not only our politics, but also our analysis, our
understanding of the labour movement and its problems has changed dramatically. Further,
the world in 2012 looks a lot different to that of 2008, when the credit crunch was just
coming into effect, before any talk of cuts or austerity.
Given our changing politics and perspectives, and given the changed political terrain in
which we operate, we believe that Liberty & Solidarity is no longer an organisation that
serves a useful function. Whilst it has had its fair share of successes, we currently find
the organisation too small to be maintainable in an efficient manner.
Consequently, Liberty & Solidarity's 7th Biannual conference has taken the decision to
disband the organisation.
We are still proud of what Liberty & Solidarity has achieved and we hope to continue to
work together towards shared goals, engaging with an ever-broader range of trade unionists
and community activists. Our project, the empowerment of working people within the
workplace and society, remains the same.
