We definitely need several conditions to change in the UK before anything revolutionary occurs I’m with you there. Some things are economic and some others could be pushed via some electoral policies, although I don’t see a pathway to electoral policies with Starmer and the purge he pulled. A lot of union sentiment has improved, but translating into new union members? I’m not seeing it happen fast enough. Another issue is the misogyny and bigotry that currently exists among MLs in the UK, created by the bizarre attempt at allying themselves with terfs and appealing to the man down the pub. This has been created by tories posing as the bloke down the pub to appeal to reactionaries, and somehow MLs have bought it as the depiction of the average working class person of the UK which is just plain nonsense, they’re trying to appeal to a caricature created by the bourgeoisie. Undoing this false mindset is very important to get MLs focused on the actually-vulnerable people, problem is that leadership in these parties is pushing it and there isn’t any way to dislodge that leadership without massive entryism from lgbt people who have already almost all left those parties.

I view our struggle currently as less an adventurist revolutionary fantasy on the horizon like I think a lot of newer ML fall into

I don’t think there is any problem with having a laser-focus on achieving revolution. It should be the question that guides all work we do, how our work contributes to future revolution, what prerequisites must be met, etc etc. While it’s not available as an option right now we should be identifying prerequisites needed for it and working to achieve them.
