US baseless accusations of drug trafficking and the outrageous putting of a bounty on a president of a sovereign country do not bode well, reports PABLO MERIGUET
ACTIVISTS in the East of England and beyond are eagerly looking forward to this weekend’s Burston School Strike Festival, which is just a shade north of Diss in south Norfolk and now firmly re-established post-Covid.
This year’s festival has a special character and is likely to be the last before a general election and certainly before several important local elections that will take place in May 2024 in Peterborough and Southend-on-sea, with most county councils following on in 2025.
These are an opportunity for local campaigners to open up a new political path. Burston is a great place to meet activists from all over the East of England, and the Communist Party and the Morning Star will be fully involved.
