Party News from the April 1984 issue of the Socialist Standard
Comrades, an appeal for support. The Parliamentary Committee of the Socialist Party, with Islington Branch and other members, are organising to contest the forthcoming European Election. The chance to bring the socialist case to workers beyond our national confines should be of concern to all socialists. The manifesto is being prepared now.
The advantages of contesting elections arc obvious, especially to Islington Branch members, who have seen a steady growth of their Branch since the last General Election which the Party contested. Elections also focus propaganda activities at a time when politics is a matter of widespread debate. So let this Election be an opportunity for all socialists to rally in support of our efforts. A general meeting to organise our campaign will be held on Thursday 26 April at 7.30 at the Prince Albert Pub. Wharfdalc Road, London N1.

They never did end up contesting the Euro elections in 1984. Lack of funds, probably.
