Lyn Walsh
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lyn Walsh is a leading figure of the Socialist Party (SP) in the section in England and Wales of the Committee for a Workers International. Walsh joined the Revolutionary Socialist League (RSL), the forerunner of the SP, as a student at Sussex University in the early 1960s.
As a member of the RSL he became a significant figure in what was known as the "Militant Tendency", the public incarnation of the RSL within the Labour Party. As such he was expelled from that party along with the rest of the editorial board of Militant. Later when the Militant split he took the side of Peter Taaffe against the historical leader of the tendency Ted Grant.
