In 1982, the Party, along with the Kurdistan Workers Party and other left parties established the Unified Resistance Front Against Fascism (Turkish: Faşizme Karşı Birleşik Direniş Cephesi).[1]
In the 1980s and 1990s it had strong links with the group around John Chamberlain (who uses the pen-name of "Jack Conrad") and his supporters who publish the Weekly Worker in Britain. Some members of Chamberlain's group went so far as to join the TKP.
