Friday September 11, 2009 12:27 by Andrew - WSM (personal capacity)
Last night saw the launch of a new history of the Offical IRA and the Workers Party called ‘The Lost Revolution’ by Brian Hanley and Scott Miller. Over 250 people including many ex and current members of the Workers Party as well as members of just about every other left and republican group crammed into the hall for the launch. This is an audio recording of the introduction to the book given by Diarmaid Ferriter followed by each of the authors speaking about the book. The notes below is my very quick summary of some of the areas talked about by the speakers.

The Workers Party never recovered from the blow dealt by DeRossa Rabbitte Gilmore etc -what was known about for years became an embarrassment when they started becoming part of the center/right establishment , trading in what the party was working on for a need for respectability ....
