The Socialist Workers Movement concentrated on their age old policy of showing up the "pro-life" movements as the bigots they really are, chiefly by holding counter demonstrations when ever the "pro-lifers" marched. In one instance worthy of a black comedy both Democratic Left and the SWM held separate counter demonstrations on the same weekend. Both refused to support each others' event, both claiming the other was being ultra-leftist.
Five weeks before the referendum the SWM attempted to set up a 'Youth Against Bigotry' campaign. However this disappeared very quickly without trace. Both Militant and the SWM put party building before politics. Recruitment was prioritised above gaining a victory in the referendum.
The Dublin Spartacists, a small and not often seen organisation leafleted against womens oppression whenever anyone else provided them with an opportunity to do so. They could not get involved in any Right to Choose campaign as they believed all these campaigns were in fact campaigning against abortion!!
DL, Labour Party, Workers Party, SWM and Militant members took no part in any campaigning groups on the ground. The only Green Party members working on the referendum were in the "pro-life" camp.
