Geschiedenis
Will Fancy joined the Socialist Review Group as a young man and was involved in Trotskyist politics until the early 1980s. He was active within the white-collar trade union, NALGO, playing a leading role in transforming the union into playing a more militant, campaigning organisation. Will Fancy was elected to the NALGO national executive: in the 1970s the Daily Mail described him as "the most dangerous man in Britain". In the early 1980s Will Fancy became a full-time union secretary and broke with the Socialist Workers Party.
