This is the last video from the SR dayschool. It is also likely to be my last posting for a while. I’ll be somewhere remote in the Irish mountains without running water and electricity humiliating myself with a horse.

The video shows Phil Hearse offering an analysis of the current state of US imperialism. It’s not easy to get Phil to share his opinions on what’s happening in the world and it took an awful lot of persuasion to get him to take the stage. I’ve cut out his rude remarks about Ken Livingstone and somebody called John Ross.

    Daggi: “Can you post the remarks on youtube?”Hey Liam, you have started an urban myth about these remarks. I was at the conference and heard comrade Hearse make these “comments” and they weren’t rude at all…. well, maybe, just a tad sarcastic…

Sod interesting views on US Imperialism, if you can’t back them up with rude opinions about John Ross then you’ll never quite make it it my eyes.

    “So how many of you are going to the SinnFein shindig next Tuesday then?”I was going to say “more than are coming back”. But that would be in poor taste.

    Am I right in thinking that Phil has (probably unconsciously) mimicked the late Ernest Mandel’s public-speaking mannerisms in every detail?

    P.S. Hand gestures aside, a very interesting and worthy talk.
