FOR SALE BR$ TIM nothing at all since British governments have made quite clear for the last 53 years that they are not prepared to lift a finger to support democracy in Rhodesia.
The only thing which can guarantee the overthrow of white racist rule in Rhodesia is the successful pursuit of the armed black liberation struggle.
The purpose of the Geneva talks is to defeat this struggle. The only principled course open to those who profess to offer leaderto the black workers and peasants is to break off those talks at once and to give unambiguous support to the armed struggle:
WAGE FREEZE...from Page go on top oj and not instead of an increase in the basic rate.
The Workers Socialist League calls for full support to the workers at Rubery Owen and Salisbury Transmissions. Other workers must be brought into action by their side - but we have to adopt a policy that does more than simply fight for more money.
We must challenge capitalism's right to make the working class pay for the crisis.
This means that on top of substantia catching-up increases, wages must be defended against inflation through a sliding scale of wages clause providing automatic increases to keep pace with the rising cost of living as assessed by elected committees of trade unionists and housewives.
BROKEN
This means the Social Contract must be broken. For this reason the fight on wages must go alongside the fight for the removal of Callaghan and Healey, and their replacement by any Labour MPs prepared to fight for their removal and for alternative socialist policies.
These are the policies around which the recall conference on Wage Control and Union Democracy will be held by the Campaign for Democracy in the Labour Movement in March next vear.
