    FYI, Hervé is quoted of approvingly in this 1909 article, but he became a French version of Blatchford a few years after.

    No friends round here . . . just comrades, ex-comrades and apostates. I thought your schtick was that you "knew" the SPGB?

    (With reference to the bolded bit in your post)As someone who lives in the States, I know from bitter experience that this is absolute bollocks.

    Anybody on the boards old enough to remember Malcolm Muggeridge's BBC 2 programme,  Let Me Speak?Link: The BBC says "No" to the SPGB (1964)I'm curious to know who the Anarchists and/or Communists were who were featured on the programme. (Scroll down the linked article to my comment.)

    Is it just me, or is this an absolutely excellent Socialist Standard editorial from April 1919?:LINK: What We WantPunchy and to the point. This would have been a leaflet I would have been proud to give out in its thousands.

    I believe the speaker at this event is Keith S. A former member of this parish.

    Cheers for helping me out. Much appreciated.I'm really not that tech savvy, but neither am I usually a tech luddite either. However, this forum makes me want to take a hammer and sickle to all concerned. I may have to seek refuge in caffeine.

    Forget it. I'm sick of the hassle it takes to cut and paste a few lines to this forum. The formatting is bollocks. A waste of time.

    My facebook timeline is telling me that today is the 77th anniversary of the assassination of Trotsky. On cue, here's an article from the September 1940 issue of the Socialist Standard on said event, and an assessment of Trotsky's political life:Link: The Death of Trotsky
