Hence, once you prodded me I quite quickly popped something together. And I mainly repost other peoples things, or emails I've been sent etc...<br /><br />Perhaps there should be an alternative word for cutnpasters like me?!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16699520594304588229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5028032657833609064.post-29699334328838367532010-02-13T18:11:10.910+00:002010-02-13T18:11:10.910+00:00A blogger who hates writing?

Smith even names the comrade in a remarkable letter circulated to SWP members across the country.<br /><br />I am torn between amusement and anger, but it is certainly an audacious act of hypocrisy. It was Martin Smith who last autumn obtained emails without permission, then used them to get both of us expelled, as part of a paranoid and desperate attack on minority voices inside the SWP.<br /><br />What's worse, he then ensured they were published in a bulletin circulated to all members by email, which inevitably ended up on a website where anyone can read them. I can't figure out if - by attacking someone else for 'leaking' - he has absolutely no self-awareness, or if it's an elaborate hoax he's playing on party members (maybe he's thinking: 'how much of this crap will they accept and regurgitate?'). <br /><br />It's also worth noting that the same letter contains a number of outright lies about the Tyneside Stop the War. It seems any basic standards of integrity and honesty have been cast out. A tragic turn for the party to take.luna17https://www.blogger.com/profile/03754650933188634442noreply@blogger.com
