    Dr. Cornejo Tenure Letter

    Peace is an Ecosocialist Issue: Some Experiences from Local UK Politics and Suggestions for Global Action Judith Watson* It is difficult to comprehend why the world should be in a state of conflict more than 25 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, and hard not to conclude that armed conflict is intrinsic to capitalism. There is a problem with the post-war settlement, forged at Potsdam and Yalta, yet it is the only settlement that we have. The United Nations is hardly succeeding, yet we cannot admit its failures without suggesting that we dissolve the community of nations and elect another one. It seems, as Noam Chomsky has long pointed out, that the USA in particular needs to have a bogeyman; if not communism then resurgent Islam. The ecosocialist implications of permanent warfare are almost too simple to state in an academic journal. • War can be caused by environmental damage. The Syrian conflict seems to have been exacerbated by the drought of 2007 to 2010. The uprising started in March 2011. • War is an environmental disaster in its own right. • War divides people when they should be united, and is an obstacle to building the necessary counter-hegemony for a transition to socialism and to a low-carbon economy. There is also the question of the armaments industry itself, a lucrative, though not essential, component of the industrial base of some capitalist states. I would like to argue that building a strong international peace movement is an important task for the ecosocialist movement, even as it is building up its own strength.

    Scottish Labour at a crossroads: what next? As the Scottish Labour Party moves to elect its seventh leader in a decade, FTI Consulting’s Public Affairs Team sheds light on the two candidates for the top job, and considers the implications for the future of the beleaguered party in Scotland and the wider consequences for UK Labour.

    Title: Ms Forename: Angi Surname: Mariani Representing: Organisation Organisation (if applicable): Latest TV Email: What do you want Ofcom to keep confidential?: Keep nothing confidential If you want part of your response kept confidential, which parts?: Ofcom may publish a response summary: Yes I confirm that I have read the declaration: Yes Ofcom should only publish this response after the consultation has ended: You may publish my response on receipt Additional comments: Question 1: Do you agree that 20 locations should be set as a minimum roll- out obligation?: Yes, because having a minimum of 20 locations would be a commercially viable option if the multiplex operator is run as a for-profit business. Having that number will also facilitate effective knowledge sharing, and encourage supportive practice between the phase 1 pilot areas for local service providers. Latest TV in Brighton and Hove is already modelling and championing collaborative working methods at a local level by working in partnership with both Juice 107.2 FM, the city's radio station, and Wired Sussex, our leading digital company, and has cross-party support from all of our MP's as well as many other organisations and business groups in the city. We already have collaborative relationships across the country, such as with Element TV and You TV, and would also be looking to build a good working relationship with our multiplex provider. "Brighton & Hove is a world class arts and media city with a very significant digital industry and a council that would like to move Brighton & Hove towards becoming the digital capital of Europe and the directors of this bid have excellent programming, entrepreneurial/financial and engineering skills..
