1)  Towards a Republican Agenda for Scotland          

 

Sat July 10, 7pm            

 

Scottish Republican Convention

Shuna Island Social & Recreation Centre       

21-23 Shuna Place, Ruchill, Glasgow    

 

The line-up of speakers has been confirmed. Unfortunately Eric Canning of the 
Communist Party of Scotland is unable to attend due to another engagement, 
however he passes on his best wishes and requests to be kept informed of future 
events. The good news is that we still have a quality line-up of speakers 
(below) on a range of topics. Shuna Island has been transformed due to the work 
of 
volunteers, to paint, furnish, install sound eqpt, stage, lighting, bar and 
more.

 

All members and supporters are urged to make the effort to attend and ensure 
that the Scottish Republican Convention gets off to a great start. Anyone 
wishing to sacrifice an hour of their time to help on the door or bar should 
contact us at the_srsm@xxxxxxxxxxx For those who cannot make it there is 
information at the end of this mail on how to make a donation to help cover 
costs.

Why I Choose Red
by Hugh MacDiarmid

I fight in red for the same reasons
That Garibaldi chose the red shirt
- Because a few men in a field wearing red
Look like many men - if there are ten you will think 
There are a hundred; if a hundred
You will believe them a thousand.
And the colour of red dances in the enemyâs rifle sights,
And his aim will be bad - But best reason of all,
A man in a red shirt can neither hide nor retreat.
