From Letters, Socialist Worker, No. 85, July 1968, p. 7.
Transcribed & marked up by Einde O’ Callaghan for the Encyclopaedia of Trotskyism On-Line (ETOL).
MALACHY McKENNA was correct to point out to your readers (June) the fact that Northern Ireland is a police state in Britain’s backyard.
However he should also have informed them that there are two British supported police states in Ireland. All of the draconic provisions of the Northern Special Powers Act can be found in the Southern Offences Against the State Acts. That is why Irish revolutionary socialists raise the demand: Tories out – North and South.
