Gerry Healy: After Khrushchev's denunciation of Stalin - will they take back the lies about Trotsky? [1956]
Introductory note
This article by the then leader of the British "orthodox Trotskyists", Gerry Healy, appeared in the March 9, 1956, issue of Tribune, the paper of the left wing Bevanite current in the Labour Party and the trade unions.
The Bevanites were then a mass movement. Healy's piece appeared in the middle pages alongside a larger article by Aneurin Bevan on the same subject. It shows how well-integrated the Healy group was in the mass labour left wing of that time.
