The tactics of the Dutch Left appear at Gorter not very clear: no support for the social democracy, right- and left-wings included, in the elections, but call to common action: "for the strike, for the boycott, for insurrection, the street battles and especially for the Workers’ councils, for the factory organisations".
A veces la socialdemocracia aparece como el ala izquierda de la burguesía, a veces como un "partido obrero".
