There are also some (greatly overstated)  references to the SWP/DSP's early
entry into, and political impact on, the Greens, which was defeated in the
mid-1990s.

Yes this is interesting that they still mention the proscription of the DSP 
some 10 to 13 years after the event. It seems to be a way that Greens 
leadership and the press itself has of reassuring each other that the Marxist 
left has no real presence in the Greens.

So Ed, you're always castigating the DSP for not giving enough support to, 
being members of the greens and for even daring to still exist... breath or 
whatever?

How do you get around the fact that it is impossible for DSP members to even 
join the greens or have any meaningful participation? Proscription was 
supported most of the "oh so democratic" Greens leaders.
