international / worker & community struggles and protests Monday September 20, 2004 - 14:56 by The Blanket reader   text 3 comments (last - wednesday june 07, 2006 - 13:21)
The Blanket update includes, Davy Carlin on NIPSA Dispute, Mackers on Scargill, Mc Cann on Pat Finucane case , O Comain on Ulster Britishness, and Laim O Ruairc, on Waste.

That meeting on Scargill was very well attended and I believe Mackers gives a fair report of it although he has a dig at the SWP. Worth a read, as are the other items, I also think that the satire and pictures are getting better over time, but thats just my opinion. Keep it up! ... read full story / add a comment
