On hearing of the proposed expulsions from the SUF
in Denmark, Claudio Bellotti, a member of the National Executive of
Rifondazione Comunista in Italy, wrote to the leaders of the SUF calling on
them to guarantee a democratic procedure and abandon bureaucratic methods.
Last week a special
conference of the SUF was held where 26 Marxists were expelled. It was clear
that the reformist wing of the SUF could not tolerate the growing influence of
Marxist ideas within the SUF. A Left Opposition has now been launched to win
the SUF back to its founding ideas of revolutionary socialism.
Socialistisk Standpunkt, the Marxist tendency in Denmark is being threatened with
expulsion from the SUF (the Socialistisk
UngdomsFront). The reason is very clear: the influence of the genuine ideas of
Marxism has been growing for some time within the SUF. Not able to answer the
political arguments of the Marxists, the leadership of the SUF is now trying to
remove them bureaucratically. Please add your name to the protest against the
threatened expulsions.
