The RCP split in 1947 over the question of '[[entryism]]' into the Labour Party. With the approval of the International Secretariat, Healy led a minority faction into the Labour Party where he established a covert Trotskyist organisation known as 'The Club'. Haston and Grant continued to run the RCP as an 'open' party; but the post-war economic revival, which confounded the apocalyptic predictions of Trotskyist orthodoxy, demoralised them and in 1949 the RCP was dissolved and its members entered the Labour Party as individuals. There they linked up with Healy in 'The Club'; but he used his control of that organisation to expel his former leadership rivals in the RCP.
