@Burnley123: oh! that's hilarious in a horrible way - the Young Socialists in NZ went through the same thing back in the late 70s when I was at Uni, almost exactly, and it of course destroyed them.

@firefall: When I was Uni at the turn of the century it was a few years before this happened and they had some strength. I even joined briefly because it was that or the Blairite Labour club. The trotskyist groups were the only politica. left around at the time really but they did a lot of shouting about workers revolution and argued against each other about whether the USSR was a deformed workers state or state capitalist. I thought it was silly even at 19.
