Big Movement, One

We have a big movement and we must take terrible losses as well as gains, without breaking our stride. Such a loss is that of Comrade Juda Tsotetsi, SACP Provincial Secretary of Mpumalanga. See the linked satement of the SACP – the first of many expressions of grief on the loss of this famous young comrade. The four-union combined strike against privatisation at Transnet is well supported. It is an example of the ability of the South African working class to organise and mobilise and project its case. The CWU position on pirate radio .is carefully explained in their linked message. This, too is a stand against privatisation of a finite national resource.
