Right people lets get our act sorted! Any ideas for an agenda on friday?

-Theres the UAF conference on the 7th, are we going to send a delegate or two to take one for the team and see what the institutional anti-fascist left are saying/maybe hand out some class struggle anti-fascism leaflets/try and entice some people away from the UAF way of doing things etc?

-Black Star-Some of the articles that were going to constitute the next issue will be out of date now. New articles? Plus we need to get page maker, either from WTY or someone else who has it if we're to carry on producing black star.

what else?

Copying from the email I just sent because I didn't check the boards, these are culled from the last few emails:

- Where do WMA go without WTY?

- Production of Black Star

- Discussions at meetings?

- Organising in Universities?

- International Day for Migrants

- Regional UAF Conference

- Mobile Phone

- Updating Website

- Visiting Russian/German G8 activists

Also, there was a suggestion on the email of having a stall outside the UAF conference, and I gotta say I think thats a bad idea as it will just make us look like sectarian twats to anyone walking past.

Should we have any presence at all? I'm really not fussed and would personally rather not attend at all, but there was suggestions that maybe we could entice a few stragglers away.

Personally i dont think it would be any more sectarian than having a stall outside the Labour Party conference or something of that ilk, theres no split as we were never interested in the UAF way of doing things in the first place.

Well, I dunno if its worth it or not, but I thought the argument for was that it would be a way of offering a different type of anti-fash strategy than the UAF bollocks.

And I reckon people willing to turn up to summat like that won't share our opinion of the swuppies, so it might look sectarian to anyone without experience of their way of doing things.

That's all I meant. I suppose a stall could work fine really, I was just sort of thinkin out loud.

Also, I think there's some sort of ARC protest in town after the UAf meeting as well, so it could be a double opportunity for a few leaflets being distributed.

Anyway, extra aganda item:

- Who is checking the emails?

good shout....the ghost of WTY lives on!

Yeah maybe if we could get a leaflet sorted, i have an antifa one ive written but its only in word form at the moment, i could add a bit of colour and tidy it up but its still gonna be two bits of A4 stapled together. Has anyone got anything else?
