P.D. Crofts - Moments Before The Crash



 

An editorial every union member should read

Monday 15 March 2010

I refer to your editorial (M Star March 12) which as usual called it as it is. Imagine for a moment that all working people could wake up and see what is being done in their name.

This editorial should be sent to every union member throughout England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. We must take the fight to the greedy capitalist class and the media.

As poet Bob Dixon wrote, "Who laps up the lies of the gutter-press?/Who never thinks to question why?/Who's glad the butchery is somewhere else and it's only foreign children who die?/All you who serve the warmongers' ends/without you, no atrocity could ever be done/You are the accessories, abettors and the murders/and you are guilty, every one/you are guilty, everyone."

Paul Doran Dublin
