Book Review: "When We Were Miners" Print E-mail
By Sam Hammersley   
Thursday, 15 April 2010
ian_isaac.jpgSome academics may sniff their noses at historical accounts written by participants in those events, claiming that ‘objectivity’ is questionable in such works. Marxists, of course would argue that there is no such thing as objectivity, since every story is told from a point of view, a perspective. Indeed, most works of history are written by bourgeois academics reflecting the point of view of bourgeois society at the time of writing. Those which run counter to that view are rare indeed. This is such a book.

National Rail Strike called as unions mobilize Print E-mail
By Socialist Appeal   
Friday, 26 March 2010
Maintenance staff with Network Rail are set to take strike action afterbob_crow2.jpg the Easter weekend. This could bring the whole country to a standstill, since all the train operating companies use the network. The issue is safety.  Though talks are still going on as we go to press, no-one should doubt the determination of the RMT membership to stop the management assault.

We attended a picket line outside the HMRC and DWP offices in Stratford to offer our solidarity and to assess the mood of the workers.
