The right to say what is
Communists have fiercely opposed the Scottish Socialist

Peter  Manson.
We are equally opposed to the SSP’s intolerance -
shared with much of the left - of anything resembling
sharply expressed pole
Communists and open polemic
In the context of the SSP and the censorship of unacceptable
views Ian Mahoney contrasts the big brother approach
of Eddie Truman with that of the CPGB with its Leninist
tradition of polemical exchange

Ghosts of Labour past
The main aim of Respect’s general election campaign

In the lurch
We ended March’s fund
with a deficit of £104 and desperately need to make good
the shortfall in April. However, there’s not much sign
of the post-Easter spurt I was hoping for, with this week’s
mail bringing in just £65. Thanks go to BV (£25),
CT (£20), DA and TY (£10 each).
But I was also pleased to receive a very generous standing order
donation from comrade RW - in addition to forking out his £25
for another six months’ subscription, he has committed
himself to £30 a quarter on top. Very much appreciated,
comrade. Nevertheless, we need to go some to raise not only
this month’s £500, but also the missing £104
from March. Once again, there were no web donors this week -
despite a very healthy total of 13,780 online readers. Come
on, comrades, don’t leave us in the lurch!
To help us get there I have set myself the target of persuading
10 readers to make a donation via the website before the end
of the month. I am also aiming to pick up at least five new
£10-a-month standing orders from comrades with just a
little bit of cash to spare. Who’s first?

We particularly
need standing orders to allow us to plan ahead in this fluid political
