Tom Wintringham – How an Oxford Communist Founded the Home Guard
Tom Wintringham returned to the UK after the Spanish Civil War and worked as a journalist. He used his experience of fighting fascism in Spain to call for the establishment of a ‘Home Guard’ in the UK made-up of ordinary people defending the area within which they lived from the threat of armed invasion.

This Communistic thinking immediately made him unpopular with the rightwing Winston Churchill and the middle class officer corps.

This is the ‘new’ fascism that all like minded people must come together and oppose.
Rescuing Marx from the Bourgeois Left
Simply being invited to stand in the same general area of a middleclass gathering, cannot be assumed as be the same as an ‘equal’ inclusiveness. Besides, as Marx continuously pointed-out, it is the middleclass who should change their naturally exploitative ways, so as to accommodate working class mores.
