Former Socialist Workers Party national committee member David Isaacson has joined the CPGB. Tellingly, and not without self-criticism, he details how on the one hand the SWP leadership perpetuates itself, and how, on the other, it depoliticises and demotivates. The result is a not a party but a bureaucratic sect which must be fought from the inside and the out Many believe that the Socialist Workers Party is going through some kind of crisis. All the signs are there. Attendance at this summer’s Marxism was half that of the previous year. Membership figures cannot be great if Respect can only muster just over 3,000. Where are the 10,000 SWP members of old? East End Offset - the SWP’s printshop - has been sold off, presumably because of financial problems stemming from Respect’s election campaign. The election result itself was a disappointment. read full story / add a comment

With just one minute to go on Mairin Finucane's RTE Radio 1 programme this morning, prospective Green Party presidential candidate was asked if he had used cannabis. He was honest and said yes. The issue of the positive or negative benefits aside, one of the biggest fears of parents of teenage children who smoke dope is that they will graduate to another level. I wonder if Eamon's honesty will give Pat Rabbitte a way out to give Labour sponsorship of the nomination a pass? read full story / add a comment

Finally, finally, my trial date is set for 5th October at Limerick Circuit Court. I'd be really grateful to see some familiar faces there, and I hope it will be even better than the last one ( see: http://www.indymedia.ie/newswire.php?story_id=22266 ). I lodged an appeal after Judge Mangan found me guilty. He didn't give a reason, and I think it's worth another shot.
