| | The affronted autocrat straightway demanded the revocation of this decision and, failing to achieve tins, deserted the party on the excuse that it was capitulating to Republicanism. | | | A Labour Party General Election victory will usher in a new and higher phase of the class struggle, subjecting the reformist leaders to the test of practice at a time when immediate socialist measures will have become a matter of life-and-death urgency to the working-class. | | | Militants in the Labour Party, and the workers generally, must see to it that this decision is really implemented by the building of a genuine Civil Liberties Council supported by and representative of every section of the Labour movement. |
