Ebrahim Harvey questions how the top leadership of the Socialist Revolutionary Workers Party decided to not take part in the recent elections without involving and consulting affected workers and members, as well as ignoring pleas from them for the party to reconsider the decision?
When the Socialist Revolutionary Workers Party (SRWP) registered for the national elections in 2019 many believed that finally South Africa would have a party dedicated to the interests and needs of the majority black working-class, unlike the moribund and lacklustre South African Communist Party (SACP), which is in an alliance with the crisis-ridden African National Congress government, alongside the weakened and now largely tamed Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu).
