Socialism 2008

IN FRONT of a stage backed with the words: 'Socialism 2008, making the case for socialism', 900 people gathered in the main hall of Friends Meeting House, Euston, for the centrepiece event of Socialism 2008.

The rally got off to a rousing start with the showing of a specially-made film covering the recent upheavals in the world economy and the political consequences and reactions. Then the rapt attention of the audience was held through the course of eleven invited speakers (interspersed with more film), all of whom added without exception to the event's success.
