A lot of things they are putting out in this campaign bear no
resemblance to what actually happened. The whole campaign has
been full of disinformation which everyone in England seems to

politicians who are involved in the campaign are in it for their
own selfish interests.

However laudable and well intentioned, the scheme by American
Senators and Congressmen to provide 50,000 of our young men and
women with US work visas must be approached against the backdrop
of our collective experience of emigration and the devastating
damage it has done to the social and economic fabric of our
society. To embrace a scheme of `temporary' emigration is not a
course we should embark upon without giving serious and profound
consideration to the political, social and economic consequences
which may follow.

with the same offence on the same evidence so diferently.

Our members are being killed. Where workers have power, we think

We can't have this type of mayhem on the streets as we have had
this year. 1997 wasn't too bad but 1998 has really gone over the
top.
