There's a bookfair planned for Newcastle which I could get to but no ACG. I had hoped to be able to pick up loads of ACG stuff that I can't be arsed to order online. That's not good, I'll have to spend all my money in the pub with the other dinosaurs.

No worries, just paypal me £100 and I guarantee I will send you a pdf of something or other. Should be able to get some off the Active or Freedom stalls? Or maybe there'll be ACG (and indeed a fair few other) stalls confirmed between now and then?

Anyway, as far as I can see this looks like it's still meant to be going ahead on the 19th, although fuck knows where we'll be with covid/lockdown by then:


Although even with my very poor grasp of geography I realise that Bristol's probably not the most convenient place to get to from the northeast.

We've got a special offer on publications at the moment (until the 7th January I think). Details on our website. Ordering from us online shouldn't be too bad either tbh.

Anyone remember which tankie group it was used to pitch up outside the bookfair ritually each year?

 

[Fozzie Bear]

The non-tankie International Communist Current used to do that?

The non-tankie International Communist Current used to do that?

Non-tankie SPGB too.

 

[hitmouse]

Yeah, I would've thought ICC and SPGB were the most regular, as far as groups who could reasonably be described as tankie go I could believe RCG/FRFI might do?

 

[Serge Forward]

Non-tankie CWO have been there too.

Can the ACG have a stall?

"Registration to host an Antiuni event or run a Bookfair stall will open in the summer."

Too early to call. Let's hope so.

Next bookfair coming up is Glasgow, so you'd have to ask the Glasgow organisers. Might be difficult though, I hear that Danny fucking hates the ACG.

The IBT usually had/have stalls and although they look and come across as Tankie; with bizzare political positions from, 'inter-generational sex' to 'military support for Isil-Daesh' they're ex-Sparts; Out Sparting the Sparts.
What's alwys surprised me is that AWL got/get away with it with No Sweat campaign!

The main room is pretty much full, but there might be room in the loaby.
