About Me
There are a mixed selection of posts here. Some are from my previous blogsite (A Revolutionary Act - now defunct), some are articles of mine that have been previously published in Socialist Standard and Socialist View (Socialist Party publications) and some past letters to the press. Although I have material going back well over 20 years, the stuff here only dates back to when I first started saving it on a pc.
Your hand has been replaced by a rubber stamp. What does it say?
It says "Why?", which is the most dangerous and subversive word in the English language.
