In the UK we have 3 main socialist groups, The socialist party, Socialist workers party, and socialist appeal. I keep researching all of these and all of them have some kind of allegations or controversy within their leadership. Makes it very hard to decide which one is worth joining, if any at all?

Thoughts?

Every party is different, and every has a power structure that at various times will attract controversy and antagonism.

Most of the work in advancing workers interest and building socialist organization occurs on the ground through direct action.

You might consider participating in a mutual aid group or contributing to labor mobilization efforts operating near wherever you are located.

As you learn about various groups and their differences, you might find that you have a perspective more deeply compatible with some groups than with to others.

Unfortunately, you won't ever find a group without that.
