The IRSP does not subscribe to nationalist ideology, either.  Its ideology
is republican, socialist, and anti-imperialist.  If the IRSP is critical of
the SSP, it's for not taking a consistently anti-imperialist line where the
Six Counties are concerned.  The SSP states its solidarity with the
Palestinian and Colombian struggles, for example, yet it's unwilling to
state its solidarity with an anti-imperialist struggle taking place a mere
21 km away.  Surely you wouldn't want people to get the impression that the
SSP is only anti-imperialist when it comes to far away struggles?
