(The Braddocks were Labour MPs who began on the left and ended on the Catholic right.) There, between pages 223-5, Bessie quotes at some length from a document headed ‘Cominform […]
[…] to assault us. And when they looked for published information on the antecedents of this group of people and organisations, they found almost nothing there – just Labour Research (God bless ’em) and a few books and pamphlets in libraries What has happened is clearly enough. Hughes began researching the Economic League and, en […]
[…] on ‘full spectrum dominance’. As the text for this issue was being finished, the British media was full of stories about disillusion with Tony Blair and New Labour.
