If they are indeed such deep believers why aren't they moving to Cuba (or any other communist nation)? Oh, let me guess, what actually went wrong with Communism thus far was the fact that wrong man was in charge.

Second biggest party in the country IIRC. A great party alright, and doing tremendous work. Despite the fact that their youth movement has been banned. In an EU country! Democracy and civil rights. Sure. I'm sure Haider must laugh at the irony of the complaints against Austria, when the accession states can get away with this sort of crap. I should have pointed out too that the Greeks have the resistance tradition too, which points even more clearly to how the PCF and PCI royally screwed up due to their embrace of Eurocommunism.

I’m resdearching / directing a documentary at the moment provisonally entitlied;
‘‘No-one likes us…We don’t care: Journeys into the Abyss of Northern Protestant Culture.’

Basic premise seeks to explore/challenge the idea that no legitimate or worthwhile expression of a valid or meaningful popular cultural contribution emerging from the Ulster Unionist or Loyalist tradition.

Any ideas for on-line resources? (music/sport/broadcasting/film/stage, etc).

Cheers,

P

I've furnished a lot of advice and rectified a lot of wrongs, and I must say that what you've posted makes perfect sense. Please carry on the good work - the more people know the better they'll be armed to cope with the tax man, and that's what it's all about.
