Here's 3 for you. We welcome more articles from people in the South, so don't be shy.
how about some articles relevant to people living south of the border for a change in the blanket?
For example it would not be overdue to have a few articles on the Nice referendum? Otherwise the material is not bad.
Sounds like you have a worse case of sour grapes than anyone at the Blanket does.
What is wrong with the blanket can be summed up by what Walter Rodney said about the New Left Review: its contributors' motivation is to show off just how clever they are. In a recent effort Anthony Mcintyre revealed that he had made a major discovery: that in wars innnocent people die. Who would have guessed. Mcintyre's sour grapes attack on Sinn Fein should be seen in the same light. Its personalities not politics. A recent article by Sandy Boyer in the Blanket is really a statement of Sinn Fein's position, but Boyer has foolishly taken the dissident's position and now can't go back.
