I agree with Ken and Lou on this one and that will cause no surprise.  For
me it all depends on what context both spatial and temporal that one is in.
 My own experience of the Communist Leage, the SWP later DSP and the
International Socialists is that abstract questions such as reform versus
revolution are posed mainly to advance the careers of a handful of sect
bureaucrats.

Having said that I believe that we will reach a time and a place where the
revolutionary transformation of society will be on the agenda and then we
can revisit the old debates with some relevance.

BTW Ken what in the name of Jeezuss is happening to the wharfies are they
just going to lie down and take the sackings?

regards

Gary
