SRSM & SSP
In 1998, the Scottish Socialist Party (SSP) was formed and the SRSP narrowly decided to join them, and reformed as a cross-party movement called the Scottish Republican Socialist Movement. Many members ended up within the SSP, but not exclusively. In 2005, the SNP proscribed membership of the SRSM, claiming it was "SSP".
The SRSM was active in campaigning against attempts within the SSP to ditch the policy of supporting independence. It succeeded at persuading high profile SSP members like Alan McCombes, Rosie Kane and Kevin Williamson to speak at its rallies and for its cause.
In October 2006, the SRSM announced that it was disaffiliating with the Scottish Socialist Party and becoming a cross party organisation.
