Life is beautiful.
In the past we organised the Dutch branch of Youth against Racism in Europe, and succeeded in mobilizing thousands of young people at demonstrations in Amsterdam and Rotterdam. Activities of Offensief helped workers from the municipal public transport company in Amsterdam to get decent contracts. Also a campaign of Offensief prevented the expulsion of a refugee a few years ago. Next to this, the Dutch SP has developed some illusions in the parliamentary democracy by neglecting the struggle in the unions by rank and file members as well as on the streets, and more and more focussing on the increase in members and the votes during elections, without trying to built the fightfull cadres that we need to overcome capitalism. Only a mass struggle by the working class will achieve this end.
