    The BNP are attempting to organise in the Doncaster area, probably in preparation for next year's council elections. They managed to book a meeting for the 27th September at Thorne Democratic Club. On hearing of this, local anti fascist organisations made plans to stop &/or disrupt the meeting, but any action turned out to be unnecessary. The steward and bar staff took matters into their own hands. The steward threatened to resign and the barstaff refused to work if the meeting went ahead, and consequently it was cancelled.

    It's not clear why a bunch of BNP scum were allowed to book this meeting in the first place. What is clear, however, is that not all working class people will be duped by the BNP's hidden fascist agenda. Tories in jackboots are the last thing we want.

    If anyone here frequents the Thorne Democratic Club, you really need to buy each and every member of the barstaff a nice big Whisky.

    The Thorne Democratic Club? Whoever made that booking must have been having a laugh.

    But anyway, Up The Workers!
    Since, according to their fantasy, the relationships of men, all their doings, their chains and their limitations are products of their consciousness, the Young Hegelians logically put to men the moral postulate of exchanging their present consciousness for human, critical or egoistic consciousness, and thus of removing their limitations. This demand to change consciousness amounts to a demand to interpret reality in another way, i.e. to recognise it by means of another interpretation. The Young-Hegelian ideologists, in spite of their allegedly "world-shattering" statements, are the staunchest conservatives.

    Fantastic to see. The rise of the BNP is a worrying state of affairs and every effort needs to be made in areas where they are active to stop them.
    In what relations do the Communists stand to the proletarians as a whole? The Communists do not form a separate party opposed to other working class parties. They have no interests separate and apart from those of the proletariat as a whole. They do not set up any sectarian principles of their own, by which to shape and mould the proletarian movement.
    -Karl Marx

    It is only by strengthening ourselves ideologically, inculcating in ourselves the values and ideals of the struggle and building up the ranks of the revolutionary party that we will make it.
