Storm Brian cannot withstand working-class anger
One of the three stalls in Cardiff on 21 (Click to enlarge)
On 21 October, Cardiff Socialist Party held three stalls in the city, defying Storm Brian which brought intense winds of more than 50 mph and rain showers to south Wales.
Workers and passers-by responded enthusiastically!
In Canton, even with the majority of people running for cover and our stall blowing off three times, the courageous Cardiffian working class who braved the weather stopped at our stall demanding that nurses, teachers and other public sector workers are given a pay rise!
Scores of people signed our petition and talked to us. We sold more than a dozen copies of the Socialist and got some hefty donations.
If a storm cannot discourage the working class fightback, capitalism doesn't stand a chance.
João Félix, Cardiff West Socialist Party
