    Quick question: Will the email from the US be addressed in a future issue of the Standard? ('Letter to the editors, etc.)In connection to 1926, I finally got round to scanning in Jack Fitzgerald's long-arsed article on the strike which appeared in the June 1926 issue of the Socialist Standard:Link: The Result of "Trust": A Lesson of the Great Strike

    Could I just give belated thanks to Mike for his article in the April Socialist Standard. Really interesting stuff.For those who are interested in some of the dramas mentioned in Mike's article, I've cut and pasted his article to the Socialist Standard Past and Present Blog and included the YouTube links for the majority of the TV shows mentioned in the piece. Just click on the titles:Link: Whatever Happened to Political Drama?

    who do you think? I'd wager it was the same SC who wrote Eddie Grant's obituary for the Socialist Standard. The clue is in the Islington Branch connection.And before anyone pipes up, it has been know for other ex-members to pen obituaries in the Socialist Standard. I remember that the obituary for Freddie James that appeared in the December 1992 Standard had been written by an ex-SPGBer who'd resigned from the Party way back in 1960!

    No, this month's article quotes from the June 1926 editorial, 'The General Strike Fiasco: Its Causes and Effects'. The Gilmac article is on the net for the first time.When I get my arse in gear I will also post Jack Fitzgerald's front page article on the strike from the same issue of the Socialist Standard on the blog.
