if not now, when?

That is fair enough. I am certainly elevating dreams of marxist-leninist unity and rebuilding the communist party above their true status in the reality we face.

Although I think it is important to figure out where we are going and have a goal in order to better 'push history'.

I cannot imagine any steps towards this being taken overnight. Yet if a communist party is to be rebuilt in britain, if it cannot be done in the current climate, with capitalism in crisis, with popular mood against the rich and what looks like to be further industrial conflict, when can it be done?

The cpb is small, yet it is 100 times bigger than any other marxist-leninist party, it has functioning districts and nations that cover the whole country and is legally entitled to stand as the communist party with a hammer and sickle.

I am just putting it out there comrade....
