Marxism 2003 - We've All Got Questions, Together We've Got A

[Communist Superhero]

Getting Answers is what Marxism 2003 is about. So if the last few months have left you asking: Is the US Empire Unstoppable? What is the Alternative To New Labour? Can Palestine be free? or if you have questions about Marxist theory such as Historical Materialism, the Dialectic, come to Marxism and join others discussing the answers.

Marxism will see activisits from across Britain and the world gather to share experiences, learn from each other, and discuss the answers to hundred of questions.

Hear people talk about their experiences in Africa and the Middle East, as well as from Aberdeen and Margate.

Some of the best speakers from the movement will introduce the meetings before they are opened up for you and everyone else to have their say.

The meetings debates and forums inculde the important ones on imperialism, war, democracy and the socialist alternative. They also include more relaxed ones on art and culture. After the meetings the discussions continue, informally and at the cultural events.

Every night there is entertainment from bands which include the national touring 'Love Music, Hate Racism' and the Nottigham band 'The Adventures of Who.' There are also films, including the film 'Frida' about the brilliant Mexican aritst, 'Bowling for Columbine' and Ken Loaches 'Sweet Sixteen.'

Speakers include George Gallaway and Tony Benn, and tickets are available on the door or by phone on 020 7538 2707, or online at www.swp.org.uk/marxism.

They prices are:

Weekend:

Under 18/school/FE Student - £13
Unwaged/HE Student - £27
Waged - £36

Week:

Under 18/school/FE student - £18
Unwaged/HE Student - £36

[Wenty]

regardless, thanks for the post. I might find out more.

[Communist Superhero]

You dont have to be so aggressive about it mate. I put three threads in the tree different topic pages so people would be able to see it, incase someone did not come into one topic they would see it in another.

Sorry if I caused you so much offence!

You can't do that though.


Especially since this thread belongs in practice.

I doubt anyone who would possibly attend wont see it.

As people regularly come in here to see about events.


In the future though I and the community would appreciate your compliance with the rules.


Red star and I already had to move your threads here, then I had to lock them, and Dhul had to delete them.

no multiple threads that are exactley the same

[Communist Superhero]

Sorry people...wont happen again :)

i wonder how many ppl get signed up to the SWP at these lectures and then do nothing and fuck all happens to them!

in fact i think im still a member....lol, ses summit

[kylie]

I doubt that would happen Tavereesh Kamo, i joined them back in january. Despite never paying the fee i said i would, and often arguing with them at the various local meetings, i still get phoned up and bugged about attending various things. For example i've recieved three letters and two calls about marxism 2003, despite saying the first time that i did not find the idea of going to a SWP dominated event appealing. It doesnt suprise me at all that they are the largest left wing party in the UK, seeing as how they employ such tactics. Quite similar to many capitalist companies, in fact.

[Communist Superhero]

Why dont you both go then...oh thats right....i forgot, your level of political debate and discussion stops at internet message boards...silly me, what ever was I thinking.....imagine having to actually go to an event where they talk about Marxism....and face to face with real people no less....tut tut tut, shame on me!

Hey...the spartacists will be there....maybe they'll be more appealing to you!

[kylie]

The SL? They are just as bad as the SWP.
Heres a piece of an article that appeared in their paper the workers vanguard:
"The black Democrats and oppositional trade-union tops are positioning themselves to get ahead of and contain the increasing discontents that the capitalist rulers' war at home and abroad, coming amid a deepening recession and the enduring character of racist oppression, will generate among working people and minorities. Selling themselves as the friends of labor and blacks is the longstanding card played by the Democrats, which is why they are historically the preferred party of the bourgeoisie when it comes to mobilizing the population for war."
They claim to be left wing, yet they support the democrats?

Ey Superprick,
if my debate stopped at online boards then why did i HOST a marxist discussion?
Why did i end up MEETING new comrades at this discussion?
Why was i SPEAKING at this discussion?

please explain how you spy on me and know what i do, yet manage to still get it wrong.

grow the fuck up, a group with 900 active members is fuck all. The Socialist Party has more fuckin members than you.

[The Feral Underclass]

ooooh name calling..., i love it when you get aggressive...the play on words there was fantasitc...superprick...your so creative!

I didnt realise one would get so defensive...have you got something to hide Tavareesh...you do know this is an internet message board and not real life...calm down, take a tamazipam and go an sit in a dark corner before you burst a blood vessel.

And while we are on the subject of speculation...as your not a member of the SWP, and you dont work at the Central office, and indeed you dont have any documents which state how many people are in the SWP, please explain to me how you know there are 900 active members...

Come on, you're not still peddling this rubbish are you? Do you seriously think that a party with 900 members could take over the ULU, the Institute of Education, SOAS and sections of the Royal National hotel for a week? Please, be serious. Why don't you come to Marxism? Hmmm, you might be selling Workers Vanguard outside huh?

If you actually read my post, and other posts in threads which i know you were also involved in, you would know this is incorrect.

Well, the funny thing is, I AM a member of the SWP, no shit, i signed up, get shitty post by them, and according to them i am a member, fuck that

there are 900 PAYING members of the SWP, and thats according to what would be the equivalent of the NEC member leaking the info.

As for Marxism 2003, i was supposed to go, however, due to transport i cannot. If you think im paying £40 to listen to secterian drivvel, fuckin suck me dick

Why would i be selling Workers Vanguard? i dont get it....

heres some source for u http://groups.google.com/groups?q=SWP+memb...gle.com&rnum=15 (http://groups.google.com/groups?q=SWP+membership&start=10&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=6f0f1738.0108060701.7faf926%40posting.google. com&rnum=15) eat that compadres :P

This is the paper of the spartacist league, they are implying that you support them. The SL are essentially the US equivolent of the SWP, they claim to be revolutionairy when in fact they are barely off center.
I think the SWP may think im a member too. Yesterday i recieved through the mail a weekend ticket to Marxism2003. This being despite me making it clear to them how didnt want to go to it, and that i disagreed with them on many issues. They're like a lost puppy, constantly following me around, unable to get the message.

[Communist Superhero]

Feoric, your a liar...they would only send you a ticket if you had paid for it. So either you bought a ticket or your desperation to undermine the SWP has jumped to extreme levels.

[Kez]

Superprick my good friend, had you read the link and sources i gave you, youd have realised the whole SWP ARE LIARS!!!

how bad a sign is that? if u have to trumpet ur numbers by 4 times!!

[mentalbunny]

I wonder if GR is still an active member....
