Peter James Taaffe (7 April 1942 – 23 April 2025) was a British Trotskyist political activist. From 1964 to 2020, he was the General Secretary of the Militant entryist group in the Labour Party and its successor organisation, the Socialist Party. Taaffe was expelled from the Labour Party in 1983, along with four other members of Militants editorial board. Taaffe was influential in the policy decisions of Liverpool City Council of 1983–1987, according to the council's deputy leader Derek Hatton, and in the formation of the Militant tendency's policy regarding the Poll Tax in 1988–1991.
