Richard Neville, revolutionary bon viveur and gadfly of the Oz editorial collective, pens his annual state of the nation message and wonders, as he drifts in ever-decreasing circles around the backwaters of his mind, whether we can harness our pres­ ently dissipated energies and rescue ourselves from our self-created cultural and political myths. "It seems so shallow to occasionally pick up the gauntlet of the State with a flourish of plagiarised slogans or to fight a journalistic revolution upon a barr­ icade of underground press cards."

Originally collected by Sue Miles for Hutchinsons, it now seems, for reasons which remain obscure , unlikely ever to be published. John Hoyland’s contribution, The Long March Through the Bingo Halls, is too outstanding to lie forgotten in a publisher’s bottom drawer and too lengthy to be printed here in full. Below is a truncated version of his thesis. Hoyland laments the dichotomy between workers who are aware of their exploitation but not of the need to dump capitalist ideology, and intellectuals “who always have the option of a free floating ‘rebellious’ life style which may feel better but doesn’t actually change anything.” This latter group try to free themselves from various aspects of capitalist ideology but do not see the need to abolish exploitation. How can both groups be integrated ?

A special OZ report on the failure of PROP Preservation of the Rights of Prisoners.

Most people are aware that Some­ thing pretty extraordinary was going on inside British prisons this summer. It’s not by any means the first time that prisoners have protested against conditions as long as prisons have existed, their monotony has been punctuated by demonstrations, some non­ violent, others a little rougher. What made last summer’s demon­ strations without precedent was the co-ordination and publicity which accompanied them. This was the work of a rather strange organisation called PROP - Preservation of the Rights O f Prisoners, led by former top safeblower Dick Pooley. I say strange because the whole thing was built up on two illusions, which completely hoodwinked press and public alike. Even now, few people, if any, not closely involved with the organisation, kn ow what really happened last summer. The first illusion was that PROP was involved in organising ALL the demonstrations last summer. Demonstrations had been happening with greater frequency from the beginning of the year. In April, for example, the Home Office admitted to two large protests at Albany involving 378 men. PROP certainly did of the prisoners.
