The Blair government is putting the lessons it has learned in Iraq to
good use in attacking workers at home. They have unleashed a campaign
of shock and awe against their own workers in the civil service. |

The Blair government is facing serious difficulties. It cannot convince
the trade unions that its pro-big business policies, its continued
privatisation of public assets are in the interests of the working
class. Brown tried to make up for this by hinting that in some way he
might be “old Labour”. In reality there is no fundamental difference
between the two. |

The Butler Report, the official inquiry into how intelligence sources were
used by the Blair government to justify the war in Iraq, has produced
nothing surprising. It is another whitewash, just like the Hutton report.
What is amazing however is that it provides enough evidence to show that the
government did indeed lie to the British people, that it went to war under
false pretences. |

Has British capitalism finally overcome what used to be called the

and a falling behind in living standards compared with the US, Europe and
Japan? Growth figures actually disguise a far more diseased system that the
media would like us to see. |

The Annual Conference of the SSP (Scottish Socialist Party) meets this weekend
to discuss a draft manifesto for the European elections and debate other issues
against the background of the recent events in Spain. Despite the successes over
the past period there is a growing unrest in the party over the reformist and
nationalist drift of the leadershp. The road of nationalism and reformism offers no way forward for the working
class in Scotland or elsewhere. The struggle for socialism is international or
it is nothing. We must learn the lessons of the past so that we may prepare for
the future |
