RIP Ted Grant, Trotskyist

Just read that Ted Grant, a leading member of the British Trotskyist movement since arriving from South Africa in the 1930s, died yesterday. Whatever the political differences between Grant and the IS tradition, revolutionary Marxists today owe pioneering Trotskyist militants like Grant who stood up for the truth against Stalinism at a time Victor Serge described as 'Midnight of the Century' a debt of honour.
