But resolutions are not enough. There are forces active within the labour movement, in particular the Labour Committee on Ireland who have proved, through initiatives like the recent conference on Plastic Bullets that there is a growing audience within the labour mvoement for discussion and action on Ireland.
If the LCI magazine can be transformed into & forum for the lively debate that is beginning on Labour's policy, it will be able to boost campaigning activity.
Whilst the Troops Out Movement hesitates on the edge of involvement in the labour movement it remains plagued by those still fighting the battles of ten years ago.
The LC! is poised to move ahead. It needs the participation of all those who backed the Plastic Bullets conference to be part of the process of building a CND-type mass movement that can play its part in liberating Ireland from Britain's yoke once and for all. • Come to the Annual Conference of the Labour Committee on Ireland. Saturday 23 April. County Hall SEI.
Membership costs £3 per year (fi unwaged) CLPs can affiliate for f. per year, union branches for f6. For details of the conference or membership write to: LCI BM Box 5355, London WCIN 3XX.
