[imc-scotland-discussion] indy scot news-sheet

[Harry Halpin]

Looks great - my only dissenting opinion would be that "Andrew XYZ's"
paper on "Re-presenting Notes on Summits and Counter-Summits" (as
published in Variant) is a really hip sounding yet
ulimately confusing, inaccurate, and cynical look at the G8 mobilisation
with almost no "positive" way forward presented other than some vague
moaning about "working-class politics"
without any concrete suggestions about how to inject "more working-class
politics" into activism. I would perfer a summary of Alex Trocchi and
Petrus Alamire's "Reinventing Dissent!"
which is much more accurate and positive. Both pieces are long pieces.
