Those who do not learn from the mistakes of history are
doomed to repeat them. For this reason, socialists take the study of the past
struggles of working people very seriously. In 1820 six men, convicted of treason, were publicly hanged
and then beheaded outside Newgate Prison in the City of London. The crime of
which they had been convicted was plotting to assassinate the entire Cabinet as
it sat enjoying a working dinner. This attempt at a violent coup d'etat is now
largely forgotten, tucked away as a footnote in the history books. It deserves
to be better known.

 In 1944 the Labour Party held its annual conference while British
troops were being used to crush the Greek workers. The Labour leaders
scandalously supported British imperialist policy in Greece, but even
worse was the fact that the Labour left had capitulated on this issue.
Ted Grant put forward a revolutionary Marxist position on the question.
