Most of the article is laudable. However:

Unfortunately, although the Workers Party continues to sit as observers on the Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition (TUSC) steering committee and has withdrawn prospective candidates in some seats, in most others it has not done so – in pursuit of its own narrower aim to qualify for ‘Short Money’ state funding by winning 150,000 votes across the country. This approach has included putting up candidates, who have no traceable record in the local workers’ movement, against the Socialist Campaign Group members John McDonnell, Aspana Begum, and Zarah Sultana.

I hate to point it out but membership of John McDonnell is not a badge of honour. He was the first to crack during Corbyn years, noticeably.
