Subversion 19

This issue was published in the middle of 1996. It marked the beginning of our involvement with the Anti-JSA Campaign (the Job Seekers Allowance). We also continued to publish regular reports of the struggle by the Merseyside Dockers who had been locked out for refusing to cross a picket line. An article in the previous issue, originally entitled "The Death of Anarchism" provoked some correspondence, which we put into this issue along with our reply. Finally, we continued our coverage of the simmering dispute in the post office.
