Pat Jordan

Pat Jordan (17 July 1928 – 1 September 2001) was a British Trotskyist who was central to founding the International Marxist Group.

Jordan was born in Chelsea, London,[1] the son of an electrical engineer.

Jordan edited the RSL's paper Socialist Fight[4] before leaving to form the International Group in 1961.

A short-lived reunification of Jordan's International Group with the RSL in 1964 ended early in 1965, partly in protest at the RSL's support for the expulsion of members of the Socialist Labour League from the Wandsworth Labour Party.

In 1985 he was struck by a chronically disabling stroke and removed from active political involvement.
