The LRC's LEAP - Left Economics Advisory Panel - is furthering the weekend's conference with a new blog outlining the way in which what was a fundamental debate on the future for socialists both in and outside the Labour Party should continue. The link is on the right........ and you can contribute to the debate

I am not in the LP but i did want to go to the LEAP conference, it sounded very good, though next time they must take on welfare policies, eg minimum income, etc
Just look at the Telegraph, they are talking about eugenics for the poor on the blogs!

below, know your enemy, lets start defending the welfare state again , all the rest is peripheral
one vile comment from the Telegraph
'Until some of the feral scum, are exterminated like they were in south America the rest of us tax paying citizens will not be able to sleep safe at night' 'We must detach ourselves from the misguided belief that all human life be sacred. Human vermin exists; if we should find ourselves overcome by rats, we should know the solution. The state has been responsible for the misdirection of these poor souls (and way before NuLab), but their extermination is our only salvation. When the numbers have been drastically reduced, then we might consider social help, such as national service or flogging, but sheer numbers prevent such a course at present.

Thank you for standing up for us.
I think you should recommend it does some work on welfare economics. It's current papers on the Credit Crunch are very interesting.
