Always an informative, passionate, and well argued read which I learn much from and, also, sometimes, can argue and disagree with. Most often, agree. Excellent on France and Europe generally. Enlightening on aspects of the far left.

I thought I was cynical, but you are out of my league. I actually attended a CLP meeting. God knows how he was selected but most of the attendees would have no idea about socialism let alone permanent revolution.
Just another case of careerism on his behalf.The CLP can’t wait to hear the first Cuckoo of summer.

Hi Andy. Isn’t the interwebnet age a marvel? Please let me know that I have indeed identified the correct Andy Coates…if “the Enterprise”, Tewkesbury Terrace, Brecknock Road and the Forest of Dean are familiar to you, then you are the correct person.
Best wishes,
Paul

Yup Paul.
Incidentally I notice Big Foot, Nick, is frequently cited as an authority on Corbyn’s time in Hornsey – as a member of the Young Socialists, as you may or may not recall, Mr Rosen was.

Hi, from the states. I like your blog. Thank you. I didn’t realize you were the author of it until now. Sorry for not understanding the tone of some of your comments on yesterday’s Brexit article. I really hope UK votes to stay in the EU. Good luck.

Generally the debate is much better than on the infantile blogs like Socialist Unity or the fantasists like Labour List, the nitpickingly pedantic like Left Futures or the totally irrelevant and we’re only writing this because we like to look important Left Foot Forward.
Having said that the whole thing would be transformed for the better by having a reply function as that would enable a continuous discussion.
