Doug Thorpe's piece for Left Unity

This is all excellent writing from both Doug and Ken.

In Birmingham and the Black Country, we are discussing the article on Saturday at our monthly meeting.  I find the meetings well worthwhile for serious discussion and for fresh or different insights.  Useful, too for mutual encouragement and support.  I think our distinctive perspective must be brought to bear on the decision-makers in local and regional government, in particular.  We must challenge them and be their conscience over, in particular, climate concerns that seem ever more real and relevant.

I think we must send our point of view as press releases and letters on topical issues to the media, under our banner of 'Left Unity' to make sure we don't get left out but to raise our profile.
