WITH ITS AIM firmly fixed on left unity, the Leeds Campaign group determined its priorities for the coming year at its recent annual general meeting.
As a first step, the Group has already called an informal organising meeting in an attempt to co-ordinate the city's response to the national TUC anti-racist demonstration in March.
All the various organisations involved in anti-racist or antifascist activity in Leeds were invited, including Youth Against Racism in Europe, the Anti-Nazi League. the Anti-Racist Alliance and Anti-Fascist Action?" creta : Leeds: Trades Council is also: holding a public meeting to mot bilise in support for the demonstration.
Other meetings already planned by the Campaign group, which meets on a monthly basis, include a discussion on Ireland and a speaker from the Anti-Nazi League. Later in the year there will be a public meeting with Campaign Group MPs and the local group will continue to support the national Socialist Campaign Group Supporters Network.
Although the AGM was slightly down in numbers this year, and the city councillors who nominally support the group were most noticeable by their absence, the group has a healthy active base. And one of its, leading supporters, is also, likely to be elected to the council in,May this year.
