If your only tool is a hammer, every issue looks like a nail. If you only think of politics through the lense of electoralism, you'll believe such ridiculous things like a need to back the greens because anything else splits the vote.
Which historic changes have been achieved in parliament? None. They were enacted by a parliament, but fought for by mass organizing and in protest on the streets. The best long term alternative I see to the Tories, Labour, and even Reform, is grassroots community organizing, which is the goal of Your Party.
Emancipating people, showing them how they can fight for themselves, instead of carrying the faulty belief that we need representatives to fight for us.
@ErikUden While in principle I like your partys organizational principles the best, its still electoralism and material forces will cause capitalists to infiltrate and corrupt your party, remember 100 years ago labour was a party of the labour movement
You're right that changes are fought for on the ground but we cant let the bells and whistles of party organising hamper the movement, mutual aid is not charity, as soon as our movement becomes solely dependant on investment from yourparty we will become party organs. I'm not saying dont take the money because initial set up can take a lot of cash but dont become dependant on it, build dual power directly coops and mutual aid structures of all kinds

#OtD 23 Nov 1912 anarcho-syndicalist union, Unione Sindacale Italiana, was founded in Modena mainly by radical metal workers, builders, farm workers and miners. It played a key role in both the factory occupation movement and anti-fascist resistance https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9595/unione-sindacale-italiana-founded
