L&S Spring conference

Last weekend the fourth national Liberty & Solidarity conference took place in Birmingham.  The two day event saw both more formal debate around motions as well as informal discussion, especially surrounding our industrial strategy and how best to take it forward.  Participating in the conference were L&S members from across the country, from Edinburgh to Reading, along with a representative of Ireland's Workers Solidarity Movement.

The first day of the conference was largely taken up with approving reformulations of our existing strategies to give them more clarity and a consistent form, these are now available on our website.  We also discussed the IWW and its future, the importance of the National Shop Stewards Network and other projects within the labour movement.  This involved reviewing our progress over the last year and coming up with new targets for the following year.

Our spring conference was generally a great success, with our basis for unity clarified and our strategies developed and updated, setting us up well for this year of struggle.
