John Ross is a British academic, journalist, blogger, advisor to multinationals and economic commentator who previously was a socialist political activist and worked as an economic advisor to Ken Livingstonewhen he was Mayor of London. He writes regularly for China Daily, Shanghai Daily, and China.org.cn. He is author of the book Thatcher and Friends - the Anatomy of the Tory Party (1983).

 

Politics

Ross was convinced by Bob Pennington to join the Trotskyist International Marxist Group (IMG) in the late 1960s. He rapidly rose to a prominent position in the IMG, working with Pennington to form the IMG Opposition Group. The leadership became increasingly associated with Ross as it became known as Socialist Action.^[4][5][6][7]

Ross was leader of one of three groups which emerged out of the crisis of Socialist Action in the mid-1980s. They increasingly ceased to function as a normal left-wing group and became a group of advisors to Livingstone.
