This is a review I have written of a book of articles and speeches by Pat Wall, the marxist MP in Bradford in the late 1980s. It's in the current issue of Socialism Today. The book is well worth buying and the magazine is worth subscribing to as well.

The UK has 3x as many billionaires as it had in 2010, whilst millions of families suffer austerity.
There's plenty of money; it's just in the wrong hands!

Forty years ago last week, the Tories vindictively increased the deduction from the benefits for the families and children of striking miners. Thirty of us 'occupied' the floor of the Commons. Tony Benn's diary records what happened next.
