		Amongst the revolutionaries and political activists that had been drawn to Guatemala to witness the struggle against imperialism were Cuban exiles who were involved in the struggle against the US-backed Batista government.
		This 'two-stages' policy (first a democratic-capitalist society, second, at a later stage, a socialist struggle), which proved to be so disastrous to the workers' movement in Germany and Spain in the 1930s, relegated the PSP to playing a minor role in the unfolding Cuban revolution.
		This was not part of a conscious socialist strategy but a response to the movement of the masses and a riposte to the counter-revolutionary pressures of big business and US imperialism - who retaliated to a government tax on sugar companies by imposing an economic blockade which lasts to this day.

		Attracted to the political ideas of the exiled Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky, this small group of South African émigrés had already been influential in the founding of South Africa's first Trotskyist organisation, the Workers' International League, and soon made a mark on the fledgling British Trotskyist movement.

		Healy's faction had the UK franchise but went off with the splitters, leaving a vacancy for a British Section which the leadership of the FI allegedly tried to fill by placing an advertisement in Tribune, which Grant answered.

		It was he who described the league as 'the organisation of revolutionary socialists who are an integral part of the labour movement for the purpose of winning it completely for revolutionary socialism'.
		The strongest criticism is reserved for the league's adherence to what he calls the old fashioned 19th century economic theories of Karl Marx - formulated when the science of economics was in its infancy.
		It comprehensively covers the history of the Socialist League, and if you are interested in the politics of the 1930s it is well worth a read.

		Of course the leadership of a mass revolutionary party and of individuals is critical during the process of revolution and counter-revolution.
