Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4What is wrong with the blanket can be summed up by what Walter Rodney said about the New Left Review: its contributors' motivation is to show off just how clever they are. In a recent effort Anthony Mcintyre revealed that he had made a major discovery: that in wars innnocent people die. Who would have guessed. Mcintyre's sour grapes attack on Sinn Fein should be seen in the same light. Its personalities not politics. A recent article by Sandy Boyer in the Blanket is really a statement of Sinn Fein's position, but Boyer has foolishly taken the dissident's position and now can't go back.
Sounds like you have a worse case of sour grapes than anyone at the Blanket does.
how about some articles relevant to people living south of the border for a change in the blanket?
For example it would not be overdue to have a few articles on the Nice referendum? Otherwise the material is not bad.
