Convention of the Left - Manchester, 20-25 September 2008
This bold venture comes as a result of people from different left and radical traditions – or none – getting together in Greater Manchester to say that there IS an alternative to Labour’s policies of war and privatisation. So when New Labour comes to Manchester for its so-called “Conference” (an event generally believed to be without debate or decisions), we have decided that we want to host a “Convention of The Left” – just a stone’s throw (or a balloon’s flight) away from the security-surrounded official event.
Write to COTL, 58 Langdale Road, Manchester, M14 5PN.Email conventionoftheleft.org.Join the discussion at our blog at www.conventionoftheleft.org.uk

I like to get your news letter and information. We work with Democratic left Front.
