racist, anti-irish and chauvinist ideas inside the working class Again, the present bi partisan policy of the Labour Government in relation to the North of Ireland, its preparation to hand over power to the Loyalists, and the introduction of the so-called AntiTenorism Act, all provide the dung which will nurture the fascists The lascists would deadly like to provoke the left in the hope of seeing a furlier strengthening of the state, but the Labour Goverratent is itself pon thibuting to this process by keeping the Shrewshury Two inside and allowing the police to wrest ten more pickets in the Eldon Square dispute in Newcasde.

CONFUSION

It is only by combatting the racist and nationalist sear that already exist insile the labour movement that we will be able to drive the fascists from the streets for good.
