The Socialist Party of Great Britain (Reconstituted), also known as the SPGBR, is a tiny Marxist party founded in 1991 after its members were expelled from the Socialist Party of Great Britain for refusing to adopt certain party-wide resolutions. In practice, the SPGBR claims it is the "true" SPGB, and uses the "Reconstituted" moniker only when it is necessary to disambiguate itself from its larger parent group, which it usually refers to as the "Clapham-Based Socialist Party" or the "Socialist Party of Clapham". (The original SPGB refers to the SPGBR as the "Ashbourne Court Group" after its mailing address.)

The Party publishes a regular paper, Socialist Studies , which serves just as much a forum for socialist philosophy and agitation as it does for polemics against the original SPGB. The Party claims the original SPGB has deviated from the strict anti-reformism principles it established in 1904, and has from time to time made accusations of infiltration by anarchists and other non-socialist interests. This stance garnered the approval of none of the SPGB's companion parties in the World Socialist Movement, save the World Socialist Party of India, which has since disaffiliated with the WSM and joined with the SPGBR.
