Derogatory term for members of the Socialist Workers party, a Trotskyist/far left political party in Britain and Ireland that places a lot of emphasis on direct action. Swimmies can be usually found at any march against the US, Israel, or big business either handing out copies of their party newspaper or standing around holding a placard with the words 'Socialist Worker' printed in bold italic helvetica.
There was a bunch of Swimmies in town the other day holding a protest against bin charges, the electricity company and fascists.
