SOCIALISTS and labour movement activists today launched the Political Education Project, “a new effort in working-class self-education in Britain, Ireland and the US.”
Organisers seek to draw on “traditions of working-class pedagogy from trade unions, the civil rights movement, and community organising” and are kicking off with an online 10-week course that will include classes on socialism, women’s oppression, anti-racism and building working-class power.
“Historically miners’ libraries, mechanics institutes, socialist Sunday schools and more supported and sustained independent working-class education . provided part of the essential ‘infrastructure of dissent’ in which working-class movements, and the unions, were nurtured and flourished. The challenge now is to rebuild similar institutions adequate to the challenges of the 21st century,” the group’s founding statement says.

Be still, my beating heart! The Duchess of York, having graduated from writing children’s series Budgie The Little Helicopter, has signed up with Mills & Boon.
Sarah Ferguson, a woman whom you’d have thought might have had enough of masterful aristocrats and creepy billionaires, has penned Her Heart For A Compass (assisted by veteran Mills & Boon writer Marguerite Kaye).
It’s out in August and is reportedly loosely based on a Victorian great-great aunt of Fergie’s, but ‘draws on parallels’ with the Duchess’s own rackety life.
A tantalising fragment shows us Lord Rufus Ponsonby adjusting his ‘gold timepiece’ and bending his ‘tall, rather lean figure’ and ‘angular jaw’ to ‘loom over’ his betrothed, Lady Margaret.

Back Tories Brexit deal? Morning Star says it doesn t matter! Submitted by AWL on 5 January, 2021 - 6:34

With a characteristic smirk the charlatan Johnson portrayed his Christmas Eve deal with the EU as a personal triumph and proof that Britain can, indeed, eat its cake and have it.
The “no- dealers” of the Tory-right ERG cabal were initially, at least not so sure, and immediately set up a “star chamber” to check that the deal was sufficiently free from continuing EU influence over the UK’s fishing quotas and other unspecified matters of tremendous importance. They concluded that the deal, while not perfect, was good enough to allow them to support it in Parliament.
