He was half right. According to next month's Socialist Standard front cover, what we actually do from the sidelines is scream and shout 'IT'S ALIVE! We have to kill money.'
Is it just me or does Godzilla's next nemesis on a street near you look like a distant relative of 'Ciao', the 1990 World Cup mascot?

Hey Darren,
Greetings from the sidelines.
Did you know there's a graphic novel version of the Master and Margarita? I've just got a copy. Looks great!
Cheers
Got a link handy?
You got me at Master and Margarita. ;-)
It's on Amazon. But the "look inside" feature just takes you to the novel. I'll let you know if it's any good!
'Sidelines' - are you sure you've quoted that right?
Surely that should read: 'sectarian fringes of the labour movement'?
His words not mine, Duncan.
Don't hold ne to this but I think your quote is actually from Socialist Appeal's latest piece on the SP/CWI.
Not the first time confusion has been sown because of the name change. I'm sure it won't be the last. ;-)
