GREEN LEFT SUMMER CAMP


Green left 2007 in a field in Kent, its gonna be good.

if you can't cope with camping, lets avoid the sectarian comments about Lenin, Trotsky, Sara Parkin, etc catch us

at Marxism 2007

Michael Lowy co-author of the ecosocialist manifesto 2pm SOAS details here http://www.marxismfestival.org.uk/timefri.html

or the Marxism CPGB weekly worker fringe.
Saturday July 7: Jack Conrad (CPGB) and Derek Wall (Green Party). The SWP’s ‘What we stand for’ column says that human labour is the source of all wealth under capitalism. This is a non-Marxist position.


All meetings start at 5pm in room 541, Birkbeck College, Malet Street - close to the main event.


Its like William Morris is back and he is fighting fit, ecosocialism from being lost in the 20th century, has a good claim to be everywhere...good job too temperatures rising....

Headcorn has a train station it takes just over an hour from Charing Cross Station London - a direct service runs every hour by South Eastern Trains. Penny Kemp's farm is where the camp is being held it is situated 2 miles outside the village of Headcorn where my pub The George & Dragon Inn & Restaurant is situated, the George is a short two minute walk left out of the station in the centre of the high street. We will operate a car service for those who need it to take you from the George up to Gloversbridge Farm. Headcorn is a large vibrant village of some 5,000 people it has good shops and is a friendly place, home to Headcorn Sustainability where we run a fantastic community shop (not for profit) at Una's Barn at the back of my pub in a barn.
