This section should not neglect personal animosities, which prompted the 1938 split in the British Revolutionary Socialist League, triggered by rumors that one member had embezzled the funds of a South African Trotskyist group, and the ceaseless conflicts prompted by the thuggish figure of [[Gerry Healy]], a long-time British Trotskyist leader, and others of his kind. Nor should the stands taken by opposing sides in these conflicts be seen as immutable. Again to use a British example, in the late 1940s [[Ted Grant]], a leader of the British [[Revolutionary Communist Party]], was in favor of the RCP remaining an "open" party, while Gerry Healy sought to take the RCP into the [[Labour Party]] as a secret Trotskyist faction. By the 1970s, Grant was leading the entrist [[Militant Tendency]] within the Labour Party, while Healy was the leader of the "open" Workers' Revolutionary Party.
