 A unity coalition
Given the absence of any constitution for Respect (not even the circulation of a draft, which would have to be approved at this Conference in any case), it is difficult to see how these "areas" can be defined.
Politically there is no likelihood of relatively small meetings electing delegates other than totally supportive of the Respect head office.
This has to mean a preponderance of SWP delegates, or very close supporters (potential future SWP members, in other words).

Respect has stated on several occasions that it wishes to be that alternative.
Focussing on George Galloway, who has been set up as a “leading figure” in the coalition, they have attacked his pathetic claim that he needs “£150,000 a year to function as a leading figure” and also his shady ties to the former dictatorship in Iraq.
Other statements follow that the CPB believe the new coalition could be harmful to a movement that wishes to “recapture” the Labour Party and “return” it to the interests of the working class.

I love it for the images it conjures up of Ghengis Khan, cutting a swathe across Asia to Europe, and Jazz, his cool, laid-back younger brother who wears a black polo-neck, small round glasses, smokes French cigarettes and reads subversive poetry.
