United Socialist Party (UK)

The United Socialist Party (TUSP) was a British political organisation formed in 2004.[1]

The party was formed in Liverpool by a number of former Liverpool Dockers who had been active in the strike of 1995–1997. Other leftist groups such as the Revolutionary Democratic Group, WIRFI and International Socialist League[2] became involved and the party experienced ideological and organisational conflicts – as the Socialist Labour Party had before it – between those seeking a more left-wing version of the Labour Party and those aiming to found a multi-tendency revolutionary party.

TUSP stood in local elections between 2006 and 2008, retaining no deposits.[3] From 2010 its role was taken to some extent by the similarly acronymed TUSC (Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition) which emerged from the Socialist Party's Campaign for a New Workers' Party with which TUSP had been involved.[4] Their website contains no new content since 2009 and the organisation appears to be moribund; however as recently as 2014 TUSC stated that a member of the United Socialist Party had stood for election as part of the coalition.[5]
