Socialist Standards were swapped and given away to various stall holders and debate was had with a few. Later another Standard was sold and along with two pamphlets.Members of SPEW (formerly Militiant now outside the Labour Party) and Socialist Appeal (formerly Militant now inside the Labour Party ) were there but were very obviously not on speaking terms. It was a bit like being at a party where the two sides of a particularly acrimonious divorce were present and everyone else found it a "bit awkward". From the atmosphere I would say that Spew obviously got the house and custody of the kids.Following discussion afterwards the two members felt that hiring a stall for the rally next year would be a good move and that further activity in the North East should be encouraged. Watch this space.
Great atuff Comrades. Thanks for the report.
