There are these who, while they say that they are in favour of the united front, refuse to work with others because of "revisionism", 'Macism", "Trotskyism", etc. The united front will never be built in this way: there should be one criterion only for bringing people into the united front - will they work for the aims and objectives of the united front will all their might? The Week has been extremly critical of certain trade union leaders and parliamentarians, because they have no fought devaluation. However, we work to bring into the united front anybody who will fight the Government's Tory policies on the basis of the programme of the united front. There are those who claim that they stand for a struggle against Wilson but that it is tactically bad to call for his removal - this is opportunism. A united front struggle must be against Wilson and not aim to give him advice as to how to mend his ways.
