This one should really be for the Leftist Trainspotters List, but I just noticed that up until the most recent issue of The Socialist, weekly newspaper of 'The Political Artists Formerly Known as the Millies', the previous SIXTEEN ISSUES of the paper had carried stories relating to the National Health Service as its lead headline story. Could this be a record?
There must be a petition in amongst all this to funnel in the donations and hoover up the punters for their 2006 Recruitathon. Oh, here it is.

You actually do disapprove of recruiting per se, dontcha? :P
Hey,
I love petitions.
I wish we had one in the SPGB - "Campaign to Abolish Money' doesn't really roll off the tongue - and they were a real boon whilst a candidate member of the AWL. Hiding the papers behind the petition, getting the punters to sign the innocous sounding petition, and then revealing the paper from behind the petition, asking them if they wanted to buy a copy.
Always used to sell my quota of papers and magazines, but I never did find a use for the names and addresses on the petition. ;-)
