 | | Workers' Councils are formed in all small towns and during the general strikes of 1918-1919 and 1920 these councils have taken full control of food supplies and kindred matters, in some cases ordering the British police (an armed force) to be confined to barracks. |  | | The policy of the general strike has been adopted by the Irish Labour Party and Trades Union Congress with great success on three occasions. |  | | Its own publications have been the works of James Connolly and The Historical Basis of Socialism in Ireland by T.

 | | This was demonstrated by the 43% vote in SIPTU against P2000 and followed by the excellent vote of Carol Anne Duggan in the elections of the National Officers. |  | | Our view is that both Republicanism and loyalism have to be decisively challenged by fighting for a socialist united Ireland. |  | | It seems that it is ok for revolutionaries to stand in elections as long as they are not very successful in doing so. |
