Socialist Solidarity Network

Socialist Solidarity Network

The Socialist Solidarity Network is a grouping of socialists in the United Kingdom most of whom are former members of the Socialist Party of England and Wales. They supported the Socialist Alliance in England and support the Scottish Socialist Party in Scotland.

The SSN's supporters included Lesley Mahmood, a long-time Militant tendency leader and Phil Hearse, formerly a central leader of the reunified Fourth International, and former editor of "Socialist Outlook".

In 2002, the Network absorbed the Socialist Democracy Group. In 2003, launched the publication "Socialist Resistance" together with the International Socialist Group.

The degree to which the Network continues to function as a group separate to the broader Socialist Resistance is unclear; the Network continues to operate an email list but its members do not operate as a caucus inside Resistance.
