Marx explained long ago that capitalism operates through a series of booms and
slumps. In the boom of the Nineties, his ideas were laughed at. Now, the
situation is turning out differently as the world capitalist economy splutters.
No wonder a recent article in the Financial Times stated, "Marx seems to be getting the
last laugh yet." |

The MSF and AEEU held their conferences last
week as part of the process of fusion into one union, Amicus. A steady move to
the left is taking place. The next step is the battle of the left to win the
executive, after last year's victory that saw the candidate of the left, Derek
Simpson, elected to the position of General Secretary of the AEEU. |

Why are pensions being cut or not paying out money that was promised? All over
Europe pensions are under attack. Everywhere workers are being asked to retire
later, to give up on the idea of a guaranteed state pension and to look to the
private sector for a pension. British Socialist Appeal looks at the real reasons behind the pensions crisis. |

The victory of Tony Woodley as general
secretary of the powerful Transport and General Workers' Union, Britain's third
biggest union, is a further confirmation of the continuing swing to the left in
the British trade unions. It is also a clear indication of the discontent within
the union rank and file with right wing trade union leaders and the policies of
the Blair government. |

This weekend the AMICUS conferences (of the MSF and AEEU, the two unions that have merged to form
Amicus) start in Blackpool. This
document analyses the present situation in the union and also looks at its
history and how the left managed to win the position of General Secretary of the
AEEU - a good insight into the state of the British trade unions as
they steadily shift to the left. It also looks at the tasks ahead for the left
in the union. |
