And the Public Realm Democracy
Democracy Democracy and the Public Realm and the Public Realm Public Democracy must become the lifeblood of progressive politics. Social equality is only likely to be secured and sustained within an increasingly democratised society. The left lost its hold on the public’s imagination when capital went global in the 1970s and democracy failed to respond. Only by rebuilding the democratic impulse at Hetan Shah and Sue Goss by Edited every level of social organisation can the power of markets be used in society’s interests. New Labour has carried out some structural reforms to the UK constitution, but the cultural leap to a faith in people – to allow them to become the collective controllers of their own destiny – has been resisted. Only as consumers, it seems, can choices be made. The COMPASS PROGRAMME politics of managerialism is turning the voters away. So a FOR RENEWAL democratic recession goes hand in hand with its social The Good Society equivalent. A New Political Economy In this final instalment of the Compass Programme for Democracy and the Public Realm Renewal trilogy, the authors call for policies that will Compass is the democratic left pressure breathe life into our aging democratic structures, but group whose goal is to both debate and also for more direct democracy.

'Nationalist' Economic Policy John E. Richardson
The National Front, and the search for a ‘nationalist’ economic policy John E. Richardson (forthcoming 2017) To be included in Copsey, N. & Worley, M. (eds) 'Tomorrow Belongs to Us': The British Far- Right Since 1967 Summarizing the economic policies of the National Front (NF) is a little problematic. Compared to their copious discussion of race and nation, of immigration, culture, history and even the environment, British fascists since WWII have had little to say, in detail, on their political-economic ideology. In one of the first content analytic studies of the NF’s mouthpiece Spearhead, for example, Harris (1973) identified five themes which dominated the magazine’s all pervasive conspiracy thinking: authoritarianism, ethnocentrism, racism, biological naturalism and anti-intellectualism. The economy was barely discussed, other than in the context of imagined generosity of the welfare state. The topic is so under-developed that even Rees’ (1979) encyclopaedic bibliography on British fascism, covering over 800 publications on and by fascists (between 1923-1977) doesn’t include a section on political economy. Frequently, the closest fascists get to outlining their political-economic ideology is to identify ‘the problem’: the forces of ‘cosmopolitan internationalism’ (that is: the Jews) importing migrants, whose cheap labour threatens white livelihoods, and whose physical presence threatens the racial purity of the nation. ‘The solution’, on the other hand, is far less frequently spelled out. In essence, fascist parties, like the NF, are comparatively clear about what political economies they oppose – international capitalism and international communism – but are far less clear or consistent about the political economy they support.

Women in Leadership a Development Programme for Women Trade Unionists in Yorkshire and the Humber Women in Leadership
Women in Leadership A development programme for women trade unionists in Yorkshire and the Humber Women in Leadership To celebrate the 150th anniversary of the TUC the Yorkshire and the Humber TUC is launching a Women in Leadership course that will run throughout 2018-9 and include visits to both the UK and Brussels Parliaments. From public speaking and leadership styles to communication skills and workshops on women’s rights, this course will involve five days of classroom learning as well as some online homework. The group will also have the opportunity to meet and network with influential women trade union leaders and decision-makers, as well as get to know like-minded women from different unions. Women have always played a key role in the trade union movement. Some of our biggest advances to workers’ rights have been led by strong women trade unionists. Women also make up the majority of our membership. But while the fabric of our movement is certainly more diverse, only a third of our union leaders are women. There is still an shameful 18% gap in pay between men and women doing the exact same job, and more than half of women continue to experience sexual harassment and discrimination at work. This course will help empower more women trade unionists to step into leadership roles and continue to create positive changes in their workplaces, their union and in society. How to apply If you are an aspiring women leader, or know someone ready to take the lead, please email [email protected] to receive more information.

Nazis and the Far Right Today
NAZIS AND THE FAR RIGHT TODAY Compiled by Campbell M Gold (2010) CMG Archives http://campbellmgold.com --()-- American Nazi Party (1959 - 1967) - USA The American Nazi Party was an American Neo-Nazi political party formed in February 1959 by George Lincoln Rockwell. The organization was headquartered in Arlington, Virginia and maintained a visitor's centre at 2507 North Franklin Road (now a coffeehouse). The organization was based largely upon the ideals and policies of the NSDAP in Germany during the Third Reich. Following the assassination of Rockwell in 1967 by a disgruntled party member, the group was taken over by Matt Koehl who renamed it the National Socialist White People's Party. --()-- National Socialist White People's Party (1967 - ?) - USA The National Socialist White People's Party was originally founded in 1958 by the late U.S. Navy Commander George Lincoln Rockwell (1918-1967) as the American Nazi Party. The name was changed to the National Socialist White People's Party in 1967, in order to better reflect the true nature and purpose of the organization. Commander Rockwell's subsequent assassination in August of that year led to a lengthy period of confusion and dormancy for the Party, but in the 1990's it has revived and is gaining ground steadily in numbers and influence among racially conscious White Americans. --()-- National Socialist Party of America (1970 - Date (2010)) The National Socialist Party of America was an extremist Chicago-based organization founded in 1970 by Frank Collin shortly after he left the National Socialist White People's Party. The NSWPP had been the American Nazi Party until shortly after the assassination of leader George Lincoln Rockwell in 1967.
