Con, perhaps you would care to be specific. You should certainly not include Rita in any of your generalised allegations. I have known her for the past fifteen years and can certainly vouch for her. I know you too, but can not vouch for you.

Any report fromt the conference?

author by Con Carroll - Class warpublication date Mon Jan 16, 2006 16:31author address author phone Report this post to the editors

Con watch
what would the middle class swp in Dublin know about the reality of poverty which people expierence in working class housing estates/political alienation the swp will talk about it, once the people whom they are talking about don't challenge them.

where do I say that Rita Fagan is involved with the poverty industry?
there are people within the swp who have treated other political activists as second class citizens

con watch if you cant take political critcism of the swp
then you shouldn't debate
