following the 2014 elections the dsm proposed the re-organisation of wasp, arguing that there were a number of important changes on the left of south african politics and within the workers movement which complicated continuing with wasp as it was originally conceived – as a broad umbrella that could act as a pole of attraction for uniting the forces that could build a mass workers party. the new factors included the emergence of the economic freedom fighters with a radical left programme whose leadership were unwilling to make a principled alliance with wasp; the metalworkers’ union numsa, whose delegates to their december 2013 special national congress voted not to support the anc and "explore the possibility of a new workers’ party", but whose leadership rejected supporting wasp in the 2014 elections as a step toward that; and the consolidation of the association of mineworkers and construction union (amcu) in the mining sector whose leadership ensured the independent mineworkers’ strike committees were closed down and who rejected any role for amcu in a new workers party and were actively hostile to wasp.
