RSYM May Day Statement
RSYM May Day Statement
Make imperialism history
1/5/07
www.rsym.org
We stand on a threshold, it is the threshold of a new world. A world in which the working class will exercise control over the means of production, distribution and exchange. In short, they will be the masters of their own destiny.
People the world over are rising to the challenge of combating imperialism. We support without apology the struggles for national liberation and socialism throughout the world and are presently working actively with comrades from Turkey. Nepal, Palestine, Finland and Germany.
Here in Ireland, we too are part of a wider struggle against imperialism. Ireland has long been under British occupation, in the north today, little has changed. Britain still retains control over Irish affairs and the Unionists are granted a veto under the Good Friday and St. Andrew’s Agreements.
The British police force in Ireland has been accepted by the largest nationalist party. This, comrades, is only the beginning of the struggle.
They will exercise the full extent of British law over any Republican Socialist that does not accept their status quo which is Capitalism and partition. The Provisional Movement will serve as the eyes and ears on the ground on on behalf of the British.
It is sorry a sorry state of affairs, when those who represented a great challenge to British imperialism in Ireland ended up in compromise, defeat and capitulation.
Anti-imperialists here at home must unite in a broad front, we must be consistent in our approaches and make very clear what we stand for. Any advances to the Protestant working class must be on the basis of a concrete and honest political position.
Those who advocate that we must not mention the national question for fear of alienating Protestant workers will ultimately fail in any approach they make.
Let us forge ahead, the class and national liberation struggle has been set back considerably since the Good Friday Agreement and St. Andrews, but we need to advance regardless.
The class and national question cannot be separated, they are the same and one cannot exist without the other. That was the teaching of James Connolly, it was the teaching of Seamus Costello. It is the policy of the Republican Socialist Movement.
