15 nominations pour LA DÉESSE DES MOUCHES À FEU au Gala Québec Cinéma 2021

Une autre année pas comme les autres pour le Gala Québec Cinéma, alors que les salles ont longtemps été fermées, ce qui n’a pas empêché une vingtaine de longs métrages de fiction de prendre l’affiche.

Dans la catégorie Meilleur film, on retrouve quatre des films qui ont été le plus vus et appréciés, soit Le club Vinland, La déesse des mouches à feu, My Salinger Year et Nadia Butterly, ainsi que Souterrain, dont la sortie a été maintes fois reportée, mais qui sera le film d’ouverture des Rendez-vous Québec Cinéma cette semaine.

Alignement semblable dans la catégorie Meilleure réalisation, avec Anaïs Barbeau-Lavalette (La déesse des mouches à feu), Sophie Dupuis (Souterrain), Philippe Falardeau (My Salinger Year) et Benoit Pilon (Le club Vinland), mais l’industrie a préféré Daniel Roby (Target Number One) à Pascal Plante (Nadia Butterly).

Dans la catégorie Meilleur scénario, encore là, les gros joueurs sont tous là: Normand Bergeron, Benoit Pilon, Marc Robitaille – Le club Vinland, Sophie Dupuis – Souterrain, Philippe Falardeau – My Salinger Year, Catherine Léger �� La déesse des mouches à feu, Daniel Roby – Target Number One.

Du côté des actrices, on retrouve Émilie Bierre pour Les nôtres, Marie-Evelyne Lessard pour Jusqu’au déclin, l’actrice américaine Margaret Qualley pour My Salinger Year, Karelle Tremblay pour la coproduction Death of a Ladies’ Man, ainsi que Sarah Sutherland pour Like a House on Fire.

Les acteurs en lice pour l’Iris sont Réal Bossé pour Jusqu’au déclin, Paul Doucet pour Les nôtres, Patrick Hivon pour Mont Foster, Antoine Olivier Pilon pour Target Number One, et Sébastien Ricard pour Le club Vinland.

Dans les catégories « rôle de soutien », on retrouve Sophie Desmarais pour Vacarme, Marianne Farley pour Les nôtres, Éléonore Loiselle et Caroline Néron pour La déesse des mouches à feu, et la mythique Sigourney Weaver pour My Salinger Year chez les dames.

Chez ces messieurs, les finalistes sont Normand D’Amour et Robin L’Houmeau pour La déesse des mouches à feu, Rémy Girard pour Le club Vinland, ainsi que James Hyndman et Théodore Pellerin pour Souterrain.

La catégorie Révélation de l’année est l’une des plus intéressantes selon moi, car c’est un aperçu des visages marquants du cinéma des prochaines années. D’ailleurs, Émilie Bierre et Théodore Pellerin, en nomination cette année respectivement pour un premier rôle féminin et un rôle de soutien masculin, font partie des lauréats passés du prix Révélation. Donc, en 2021, les finalistes sont : Kelly Depeault – La déesse des mouches à feu, Jasmine Lemée – Mon cirque à moi, Rosalie Pépin – Vacarme, Joakim Robillard – Souterrain et Arnaud Vachon – Le club Vinland.

#114 Pete Thompson: "A vadonban éltünk elszigetelten!"

00:17 perc olvasás

Közel egy évtizeddel azután, hogy hátat fordított a gördeszkás világnak, Pete Thompson fotós egy új könyvvel tért vissza ‘93 til címmel, amely képekben mutatja be a pályáját a korai 90-es évektől a 2000-es évekig. és foglalja gyűjteménybe az eddig főleg kiadatlan, de a korszakot hűen visszaadó képeit. Tekintsünk vissza együtt, hogyan indult a karrierje 1993-ban, és mitől váltak azóta történelmivé képei. A VHS Mag-ben megjelent interjú szerkesztett változata.

VHS Mag: Gratulálunk a könyvhöz! A könyv előszavában vannak képek a 80-as évekből is. Mikor kezdtél fotózni?

Pete Thompson: Szerintem úgy 10 éves lehettem, de akkor még csak egy kis kompakt gépem volt. Egy Konica, amit a nagymamám vett nekem. Mindenhova magammal vittem, de nem azért, hogy fotós legyek. A körülöttem lévő tárgyakat fényképeztem és csak ritkán a gördeszkázást. Így kezdődött valahogy. Talán úgy 1986 és 1991 között csak a kompaktomat használtam. 1990-ben szereztem egy tükörreflexes gépet, egy Ricoh-t. Onnantól kezdtem egy kicsit célirányosabban fotózni. De a kis kompakt volt nálam abban az évben a YMCA Santa Clara Skate Camp-en.

V: 1988-at írunk, ezek a fotók is szerepelnek a könyvben.

PT: Igen, azon a nyáron indult az H-Street (Skateboards). Azon a nyári táboron láthattam Matt Hensley-t, Brian Lotti-t, Ron Allen-t, Ray Barbee-t, Carl Hyndman-t. A Danny Way-ről és Neil Blender-ről készült képek is akkoriak.

V: Danny Way még Vision lappal hajtott.

PT: Korábban nem hallottam Danny Way-ről, de ott minden pro róla beszélt. Én meg csak azt kérdeztem, ki ez a Danny Way? Aztán csak deszkáztam és fotózgattam a kis kompaktommal és nagy szerencse, hogy azokból a képekből még van, ami megvan.

V: Te Észak Karolina-i vagy. Kifejezetten a tábor miatt repültél át Kaliforniába?

PT: Tulajdonképpen 12 éves koromig Észak Kaliforniában éltünk, aztán költözött át a családunk Észak Karolinába. Már akkor deszkáztam Kaliforniában és csak utána költöztünk át. Észak Karolinában éltem 12 évet és abban az időszakban fényképeztem a legtöbb gördeszkázást ami végül a szakmámmá is vált.

V: Hogyan kell elképzelni azokat a 90-es éveket, amikor egyre céltudatosabban kezdtél fotózni?

PT: Nem tudom, hogy a mai gördeszkások át tudják-e érezni, hogy hogyan működtek a dolgok akkor. Amikor megjelent egy (gördeszkás) magazin, leálltunk mindennel, amivel éppen foglalkoztunk. Leültünk és az elejétől a végéig átolvastuk négyszer. Látni akartuk, hogy mi történik, mik a trendek, milyen trükköket csinálnak az emberek. Minden nagyon gyorsan változott. Ha akkortájt gördeszkásként nem Kaliforniában éltél, akkor lényegében a vadonban éltél elszigetelve. Szóval amikor a deszkás újságokat néztem, egy fantáziavilág tárult fel előttem. Szerettem az elkapott pillanatokat és azon tűnődtem: „Milyen volt az a nap? Mi történt a trükk előtt és után?” A legjobb pillanatok magazinokban jelentek meg, nyomtatott formában. Gyönyörű pillanatok voltak, merengeni a képeken és beszívni magunkba az egészet.

V: Kik voltak rád hatással szakmailag?

PT: Grant Brittain, Spike Jones, Dan Sturt. Imádtam a fotóikat, mindegyikükét másért, de talán Dan Sturt bírt a legnagyobb hatással rám. Így utólag visszagondolva, ő újraalkotta annak a fogalmát, ahogyan a deszkás fotók készültek. A gördeszkázás elég merev tud lenni, ha úgy kapják lencsevégre. Lényegében van egy íratlan szabály, amelyet általában mindenki követ. Meg kell mutatnod, hogy honnan indul a deszkás, hol van a trükk csúcspontja és hova fog érkezni. Ezzel nincs is semmi baj. Ez egyfajta aranyszabály. Kiszámítod, hogy mi fog történni, így az olvasó könnyen elképzelheti a trükk keletkezésének a körülményeit. Szerintem Dan Stuart felrúgta ezt a szabályt és azt mondta: „Elég ebből. Most mutatok neked valamit, amit nem láttál korábban.” Nem egy titkot árult el, hanem egy új szemszöget és, hogy mit szeretne közölni a vaku beállításoktól kezdve a hangulaton át az érzésig, amit fel akar kelteni abban, aki majd a képet nézi. Minden egyes gördeszkás fotónál érzünk valamit, mondjuk, hogy „Úh, ez egy egy kemény trükk!”, vagy, „Ettől megjön a kedvem hajtani!”. És ezen a téren szerintem Dan Sturt egy kicsit mélyebbre ásott a tudatalattinkba.

V: A könyv címe alapján 1993. sokat jelentett számodra.

PT: 1993-ban jelent meg az első fotóm a Slap magazinban. (a Slap magazin egy 1992-ben indított amerikai gördeszkás újság volt, amely 16 évet élt meg. A magazin honlapja ma egy közkedvelt deszkás chat fórum. -szerk.) Ha jól emlékszem Mike Sinclair volt a képen. Életlen, bemozdult, borzalmas kép…(nevet) Aztán megjelent egy kép Daniel Powell-ről, aki az Underworld Elementnél volt amatőr Atlantában. A kép egy Underworld Element hirdetésben szerepelt. A könyv címe emellett utal egy Souls of Mischief dalra is. 21 évesen azt gondoltam, hogy örökké csak gördeszkásokat fogok fotózni. Szóval a címben van egyfajta lezáratlanság. Soha sem tudhatod, hogy ez a művészeti ág merre visz majd az életben.

V: A könyvedben azt írod, hogy a pályád Washington DC-ben indult. Rögtön be tudtál illeszkedni? Milyen volt akkor ott a hangulat?

PT: A találkozásom és az idő, amit a Pulaski Parkban (híres spot Washington DC-ben -szerk.) és DC-ben az ottani srácokkal töltöttem valószínűleg más volt, mint az átlag. Észak Karolinából mentünk fel a haverjaimmal és mivel ismertem ott Lance Dawes-t (gördeszkás, fotós -szerk.) rögtön a banda részei lettünk és szívesen is fogadtak. Addigra a képeim is eljutottak egy olyan szintre, ami már egy állandósult színvonalnak volt tekinthető. Észak Karolinából DC volt a legközelebbi olyan nagyváros, ami alkalmas volt a deszkázásra. És a helyi kölykök nagyon jó fejek voltak velem. Akkor is rá lehetett érezni a dolgokra, ha nem ismertél senkit. És általában így történt, bármelyik városba is mentünk. Itt sem volt nagy szám maga a város. Általában küzdeni kellett azért, hogy motivált maradj. Néha csak leszegted a fejed, magad elé néztél és mentél hajtani. Vagy próbáltál mókás lenni. És ha vidám is voltál és egy crew része is egyben, na az volt az igazi. Érted, mire gondolok?

V: Milyen volt Pepe Martinez? (Washington DC rezidens pro, 2003-ban hunyt el -szerk.)

PT: Alapvetően amolyan csendes egyéniség volt. Inkább megfigyelő típus volt nem nagy dumás. De amikor beszélt, akkor nagyon vicces volt. Dőltek belőle a poénok. Mindenkinek nagyon nagyon jó barátja volt a DC bandában. Ő is tudta, hogy a tehetsége túlszárnyalja mindenki másét a környezetében. Tudta milyen jó, de mégis alázatos volt. Mindenki oda volt érte. Egy klasszis volt, volt benne tartás. És ha mindezekhez a tulajdonságaihoz hozzáadjuk, ahogy deszkázott, érthető, hogy az emberek miért rajongtak érte. Egy érzékeny, jószívű és fantasztikus deszkás. Vele lőttem az első színes sorozatot, egy switch backside kickflip tailslide-ot a Pulaski-n. Már elment vagy négy-öt tekercs film és az utolsónál tartottam. És újra elrontja a trükköt. Felveszi a deszkát én ott guggolok a földön. Ahogy veszi fel a deszkát, mondom neki, hogy már csak egy sorozatra való kép van. Erre ő: „OK, most beadom.” Visszamegy, megfordul és ráhajt a padkára. Tökéletesre bevágja és továbbgurul.

V: Mi a helyzet Tom Penny-vel? Sokat foglalkozol vele a könyvben.

PT: Igen. Jókor voltam jó helyen. 1995-ben utaztam először Európába a Transworld (Skateboarding magazin -szerk.) jóvoltából, akiknél abban az évben kezdtem dolgozni.

V: Így sikerült egy csomó Tom Penny-t lencsevégre kapni…

PT: Igen. Erre utaltam azzal, hogy jókor voltam jó helyen. Extra szerencsés voltam már csak azért is, mert ott lehettem. Aztán, hogy egy furgonban utazgathattam Penny-vel, (Andrew) Reynolds-szal, Matt Beach-csel.

V: Láttam azt a videódat, amiben Tom Penny-t vetted, ahogy a buszban alszik. Filmeztél is azon az úton?

PT: Igen, így mentek a dolgok akkor. A videó részek minősége még nem volt annyira fontos tényező. Korábban Stacy Peralta odafigyelt erre a Bones Brigade-del, de az egy teljesen más korszak volt. De csak addig nem volt fontos, amíg meg nem jelentek az olyanok, mint Dan Wolfe, aki egyből 10 szinttel följebb tolta a mércét. Meg hát ha volt egy filmes is, akkor a srácoknak nem kellett egy trükkel többször bajlódni.

V: Gondolod, hogy a filmezés is fontos szerepet játszott a fotózás terén formálódó kreativitásodban?

PT: Biztosan. Lelassítja az embert, mert éberebbnek kell lenned, jobban meg kell tervezni a menetet ��s lényegében folyamatosan jelen kell lenni fejben, miközben csinálod. És ha már egyszer lelassultál, akkor rengeteg kreativitás szabadul fel és épül be a munkába. Van időd azon gondolkodni, hogy mit is próbálsz megmutatni az embereknek. De azért az nagyon jó lett volna, ha akkoriban lett volna lehetőségünk nagy sebességű szinkron vakut használni. De végül abban, hogy felhagyjak a deszkás fotózással inkább az játszott szerepet, hogy úgy éreztem, mindig ugyanazt csinálom, nincs változatosság. Egy idő után nem mozdult új irányokba a kreativitásom, ami egy elég frusztráló állapot. És a deszkás fotózás lehetőségei is korlátoltak. Ott van a halszem optikás fotózás, csak beállsz a lépcső aljába és kész. Kényelmes, mindenki hozzá van szokva. Szóval valami mást kellett csinálnom és nem tudtam egyszerre deszkás fotókat lőni és valami másban is kipróbálni magam. Arra nem emlékszem már, hogy abban az időben ez ilyen formában tudatosult-e bennem, de azt tudom, hogy ki kellett lépnem a deszkás világból ahhoz, hogy helyet adjak valami másnak, hogy beszivároghasson. Teljesen hátat akartam fordítani az egésznek. Számos olyan dolog volt, amit fényképezéssel akartam elmondani, de addig nem tudtam megtenni. Ebben biztos voltam. Tudtam, hogy valami másra vágyom, de nem tudtam, hogy mire és ahhoz, hogy ezt megtaláljam teljesen ki kellett iktatnom a gördeszkát az életemből. Ha meg akarod találni a saját kreatív utadat, először ki kell magadat üresíteni teljesen és elkezdeni befogadni, magadba szívni új dolgokat.

V: Hogy sikerült az átmenet az új korszakodba? Járt ez valamiféle küzdelemmel?

PT: Ahh, ne is mondd! Úgy tíz évig totál le voltam égve. Ez azért is vicces, mert amikor elkezdtem dolgozni ezen a könyvön, hallottam olyanokról, akik azt állították, hogy haszonleső voltam azokban az időkben és eladtam magam (nevet). Mondom, „Eladtam magam?!” Zacskós levest ettem nyolc évig. Le voltam égve. Azt tettem, amit tennem kellett. Esküvőkön fotóztam. Ami egyébként nagyon, de nagyon jó terep arra, hogy megértsd a fotográfiát. Nem kreatív értelemben. De ha a fotózás technikai mibenlétét akarod megérteni viszonylag rövid idő alatt és hatékonyan, akkor menj és fotózz esküvőket. A másik terület, ami segített, hogy négy évig fő asszisztens voltam. De szerintem az a küzdelem, amin keresztülmentem egy identitásválság volt. Tíz éves koromban kezdtem deszkázni, így az identitásom és világlátásom egészét a gördeszkázás formálta. Elnézve a pályámat, a gördeszkázás mélyen megbélyegezte a kreativitásomat az egész életemre. Ez a legjobb oldala a gördeszkázásnak. Részesülni ebben a megtapasztalásban az felbecsülhetetlen. És ha a gördeszkázás kontextusában nézem a kreativitást, nincsenek rossz válaszok. Nem mondhatja senki, hogy rosszul csinálod. Ugyanez érvényes a fotózásra.

V: Hogy szubjektív.

PT: Teljes mértékben szubjektív. Olyasvalami, ami az ízlésben gyökerezik. Az ízlés pedig nagyon fontos szerepet játszik a művészetben. Szerintem a gördeszkázással, a deszkások idővel ugyanolyan ízlést fejlesztenek ki, mint a művészek. Változik. Fejlődik. Szóval, ha arról beszélünk, hogy mit kaptam a gördeszkázástól és mi az, amit a mai napig magamban hordozok, az ez. Nincsenek rossz válaszok. És ez felszabadít arra, hogy azt tedd (a művészetben), amitől élettel teli lesz. Akár az utcán gurulsz és beadsz egy 360 flipet, akár egy fotót lősz.

V: Így, hogy már több, mint egy évtizede nem a gördeszkás világban élsz, mi késztetett ennek a könyvnek az összerakására?

PT: Nem tudom, hogy az inspiráltság-e a legjobb szó erre, de az biztos, hogy ami a leginkább szíven talált ebben a teljes fotó archívumban az az, hogy a róluk alkotott képem megváltozott. Nem is tudom, hogy ezt össze tudtam volna-e hozni úgy, hogy benne maradok a deszkás fotózásban, mert a gondolatainkban, mindaz, amit megalkottunk egy fajta értéket hordoz a számunkra, mint azok is, akik a történések résztvevői voltak. Ebből a gondolatvilágból egy kicsit ki kellett lépni, kicsit más szemmel kellett nézni a képeimet, vagy más szemszögéből, aki mondjuk nem deszkázik. És ez volt a vezérfonal, hogy a képek kifejezetten vonzóak legyenek a gördeszkásoknak, de ugyanakkor azok az emberek, akik nem részei a gördeszkás világnak, kézbevéve a könyvet azt mondják, „Wow, ezek tényleg remek képek!” Szóval le kell magad tudni választanod azon képeidről, amelyekről az egész deszkás-fotós pályafutásod során mindenki azt mondta, hogy azok a jó képek.

V: Értem.

PT: Mint a Pavlovi-reflex., amikor ugyanazt a kart nyomkodod, hogy ugyanazokat a válaszokat kapd, mert az jó érzés. De amikor elkezdtem ezekre a fotókra másképpen tekinteni, akkor úgy éreztem, hogy benne vagyok egy olyan pillanatban, amikor össze tudok állítani egy kerek egészet, amit ha kiadok, úgy inspirálok embereket, hogy közben nem a gördeszkás magazinok elismerésére vagy engedélyére alapozom azt, amit teszek. Tudom, hogy az emberek több Tom Penny-t akarnak látni. De én mégsem akarok egy halom Tom-ról készült képet megmutatni, amik java része már megjelent, hacsak nem egy másik szögből mutatom meg. Például, a hátsó borítón szereplő kép Tom-ról egy sorozat egyik kiragadott képkockája. A könyv legfőbb célja, hogy valami újat mutasson az embereknek és hogy kiszélesítse a látóterüket, hogy megértsék azt a korszakot és a korszak képi világát. Mert a számomra már nem arról szól a könyv, hogy a legjobb gördeszkás fotót leközöljem.

V: Voltak olyan képek, amelyeket érzelmi alapon választottál?

PT: Minden bizonnyal. Az elmondottak ellenére azért egy lágyság és szentimentalizmus működött bennem, ami lehetővé tette azt, hogy gyengédséggel nézzek ezekre a képekre és nem egy „Le kell lépnem ebből a világból, hogy valami mást csináljak!” életérzéssel, ami kétség kívül megtörtént. De ahhoz, hogy újra visszataláljak ebbe a világba, a korábbiaknak meg kellett történnie. És annak is, hogy csupán egy fotós szemével tudjam nézni a képeim.

V: Van olyan deszkás vagy fotó az archívumban, ami végül nem került be a könyvbe?

PT: Persze. Amikor egy ehhez hasonló könyvet állítasz össze, nagyon nehéz eldönteni, hogy mi kerüljön bele és mi ne. Több olyan pillanat volt, amikor ott álltam, hogy „ezt a srácot be akarom tenni egy képpel, de csak kb. három képem van róla és pont egy olyan spot-on készült a kép, amin más is csinál trükköt.” Vagy nem volt jó a kép minősége. Vagy már megjelent valahol a kép. Tehát vagy nem volt megfelelő képem róla, vagy ami volt, publikálták korábban. Azért vannak máshol publikált képek is a könyvben, de egy ilyen horderejű projektnél igyekszik az ember minél több kiadatlan, eddig nem látott képet felhasználni. Vagy vannak olyan deszkások, akiket nagyon sokat fotóztam, de jó lett volna, ha van róluk portré is. Nagyon nehéz úgy elrendezni a képeket, hogy összeálljon minden. Jó lett volna, ha bekerül egy-egy fotó pl. Jose Rojo-ról, Rob G-ről (Rob Gonzales -szerk.) vagy Ricky Oyola-ról.

V: Mi az, ami hiányzik azokból az időkből?

PT: Amiért az egyik legcsodálatosabb dolog gördeszkás fotósnak lenni az az, hogy senki nem súgdossa a füledbe közben, hogy mit hogyan csinálj. Ott vagy a helyszínen és azt csinálsz, amit akarsz. Ez a kreatív szabadság megfizethetetlen. És az, hogy akiket fotózol pontosan azt csinálják, amit akarnak, kihasználva ehhez minden egyes percet. Imádják amit csinálnak, különböző okok hajtják őket, ami leginkább az a vágy, hogy kihozzák magukból a legjobbat és megtudják, hogy még mire képesek. Mámorító érzés ilyen extrán szenvedélyes emberek környezetében lenni.

V: Hogyan szeretnéd, hogy érezzenek a deszkások és a kívülállók, amikor belenéznek a könyvedbe?

PT: Szeretném, ha visszaemlékeznének, hogy milyen volt 13-14 évesen. Milyen érzéseik voltak azokban az időkben és milyen volt mindent beleadni abba, amijük volt. Ha ez megvan, akkor szerencsés vagy, legyen az a gördeszkázás vagy bármi más. Ezekre az érzésekre sokan visszavágynak, főleg azért, mert az élet aztán komolyra fordul. Elmennek barátok. Kudarcok érnek, válságos helyzetek adódnak, és az élet egyéb velejárói. De ezekben az időszakokban ott van a sértetlen tisztaság.

Broad—Church Labour Party

Spartacus Blog Left-wing pressure groups in the Labour Party Sections The Independent Labour Party The First World War The Socialist League References John Simkin In a recent interview he gave to The Guardian newspaper, Neil Kinnock argued that their are strong connections between Momentum, and Militant, the organization that he fought against soon after he became leader of the Labour Party. Kinnock quotes George Orwell as saying "People who forget their past are doomed to relive it. That’s why we’ve got to make sure we don’t forget that past.” (1) Politicians are always attempting to find parallels with events from the past. There are of course similarities as both Militant and Momentum were left-wing pressure groups within the Labour Party. Kinnock, however used another left-wing pressure group, Tribune, to help him be elected as leader in October 1983. He won the votes of 91% of party members but only a minority of MPs. Kinnock, therefore employed Peter Mandelson, to develop a strategy to isolate the left. This involved the expulsion of Militant figures such as Terry Fields, Derek Hatton and Tony Mulhearn. (2) However, this was a very different situation to the one facing the Labour Party today. Militant at its peak only had 8,000 members and had little impact on party policy. In contrast Momentum has the support of 17,000 members, and has been an important factor in getting its candidate elected to become leader of the Labour Party. A much better parallel is with the Socialist League that supported George Lansbury when he became leader of the party in October 1932. It is a story that Momentum should take some time to study as although it dominated policy making at the time, its leaders were expelled in 1937. The clash between left and right began when the Labour Party was formed on 27th February 1900. Representatives of all the socialist groups in Britain (the Independent Labour Party (ILP) the Social Democratic Federation (SDF) and the Fabian Society, met with trade union leaders at the Congregational Memorial Hall in Farringdon Street. The unions represented had a total of 570,000 members. (3) Ramsay Macdonald of the ILP told the meeting that the intention of the conference was an "attempt in good-humoured tolerance" to create a united organization. After a debate the 129 delegates decided to pass Hardie's motion to establish "a distinct Labour group in Parliament, who shall have their own whips, and agree upon their policy, which must embrace a readiness to cooperate with any party which for the time being may be engaged in promoting legislation in the direct interests of labour." To make this possible the Conference established a Labour Representation Committee (LRC). This committee included two members from the ILP, two from the SDF, one member of the Fabian Society, and seven trade unionists. (4) It was uneasy alliance of socialists and liberals. The SDF was established by H. M. Hyndman, who had been converted to Marxism by reading Das Capital in 1881. Members over the years included William Morris, Tom Mann, John Burns. Eleanor Marx, George Lansbury, Edward Aveling, H. H. Champion, Theodore Rothstein, Helen Taylor, John Scurr, Guy Aldred, Dora Montefiore, Frank Harris, Clara Codd, John Spargo and Ben Tillett. Under the leadership of Keir Hardie, the ILP had been formed in 1893. It was decided that the main objective of the party would be "to secure the collective ownership of the means of production, distribution and exchange". Leading figures in this new organization included Robert Smillie, George Bernard Shaw, George Barnes, John Glasier, Philip Snowden, Edward Carpenter and Ramsay Macdonald. The Independent Labour Party In 1895 the ILP had 35,000 members. However, in the 1895 General Election the ILP put up 28 candidates but won only 44,325 votes. All the candidates were defeated but the ILP began to have success in local elections. Over 600 won seats on borough councils and in 1898 the ILP joined with the the SDF to make West Ham the first local authority to have a Labour majority. This experience convinced Keir Hardie that to obtain national electoral success, it would be necessary to join forces with other left-wing groups. On 27th February 1900, representatives of all the socialist groups in Britain (the Independent Labour Party, the Social Democratic Federation and the Fabian Society, met with trade union leaders at the Congregational Memorial Hall in Farringdon Street. After a debate the 129 delegates decided to pass Hardie's motion to establish "a distinct Labour group in Parliament, who shall have their own whips, and agree upon their policy, which must embrace a readiness to cooperate with any party which for the time being may be engaged in promoting legislation in the direct interests of labour." To make this possible the Conference established a Labour Representation Committee (LRC). This committee included two members from the Independent Labour Party, two from the Social Democratic Federation, one member of the Fabian Society, and seven trade unionists. Whereas the ILP, SDF and the Fabian Society were socialist organizations, the trade union leaders tended to favour the Liberal Party. As Edmund Dell pointed out in his book, A Strange Eventful History: Democratic Socialism in Britain (1999): "The ILP was from the beginning socialist... but the trade unions which participated in the foundation were not yet socialist. Many trade union leaders were, in politics, inclined to Liberalism and their purpose was to strengthen labour representation in the House of Commons under Liberal party auspices. Hardie and the ILP nevertheless wished to secure the collaboration of trade unions. They were therefore prepared to accept that the LRC would not at the outset have socialism as its objective." (5) Ramsay MacDonald was chosen as the secretary of the LRC. As he was financed by his wealthy wife, Margaret MacDonald, he did not have to be paid a salary. The LRC put up fifteen candidates in the 1900 General Election and between them they won 62,698 votes. Two of the candidates, Keir Hardie and Richard Bell won seats in the House of Commons. Hardie was the leader of the ILP but Bell, the General Secretary of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants, once in Parliament, associated himself with the Liberal Party. (6) Keir Hardie (c. 1900) Keir Hardie (c. 1900) Many members of the party were uncomfortable with the Marxism of the Social Democratic Federation and H. M. Hyndman had very little influence over the development of the new organization Hardie was hostile to the SDF and thought it vitally important that he persuaded the more conservative trade union movement to support the LRC. In August 1901 the SDF disaffiliated from the LRC. (7) The Independent Labour Party (ILP) was the main left-wing pressure group in the early years of the Labour Party. Ralph Miliband, the author of Parliamentary Socialism (1972) has argued that its members attempted "to push their leaders into accepting more radical policies and programmes, and to press upon them more militant attitudes in response to challenges from Labour's opponents". (8) In the 1906 General Election the LRC won twenty-nine seats. This included Ramsay MacDonald (Leicester) Keir Hardie (Merthyr Tydfil), Philip Snowden (Blackburn), Arthur Henderson (Barnard Castle), George Barnes (Glasgow Blackfriars), Will Thorne (West Ham), Fred Jowett (Bradford) and James Parker (Halifax). At a meeting on 12th February, 1906, the group of MPs decided to change from the LRC to the Labour Party. Hardie was elected chairman and MacDonald was selected to be the party's secretary. Despite providing the two leaders the party, only six of the MPs were supporters of the ILP. (9) This success was due to a secret alliance with the Liberal Party. The Clarion newspaper wrote: "There is probably not more than one place in Britain (if there is one) where we can get a Socialist into Parliament without some arrangement with Liberalism, and for such an arrangement Liberalism will demand a terribly heavy price - more than we can possibly afford." (10) In July 1907, the 25-year-old, Victor Grayson, a member of the ILP, stood as an independent "Labour and Socialist" candidate in a by-election at Colne Valley, without the endorsement of the Labour Party. He was elected on a left-wing socialist programme. The Daily Express reported: "The Red Flag waves over the Colne Valley... the fever of socialism has infected thousands of workers, who, judging from their merriment this evening, seem to think Mr Grayson's return means the millennium for them." (11) Grayson refused to accept the discipline of the Parliamentary Party and sat as an independent member. In the House of Commons he attacked the gradualism of the Labour Party: "We are advised to advance imperceptibly - to go at a snail's pace - to take one step at a time. Surely there are some young enough to take two steps or more at a time." (12) Grayson's impassioned zeal in pressing the claims of the unemployed soon involved him in angry scenes and he was eventually suspended from the House of Commons: "Grayson's activities were profoundly embarrassing to his colleagues, both because these activities were deemed to compromise the Labour Group's respectability, and also because they offered to the activists a striking contrast with the Group's own lack of impact." (13) Over the next seven years Labour MPs gave its support to the Liberal government. The chief whip reported in 1910: Throughout this period I was always able to count on the support of the Labour Party." One Labour supporter asked: "How can the man in the street, whom we are continually importuning to forsake his old political associations, ever be led to believe that the Labour Party is in any way different to the Liberal Party, when this sort of thing is recurring." (14) John Glasier argued that Ramsay MacDonald gave him the impression that he had lost faith in socialism and wanted to move the Labour Party to the right: "I noticed that Ramsay MacDonald in speaking of the appeal we should send out for capital used the word 'Democratic' rather than 'Labour' or 'Socialist' as describing the character of the newspaper. I rebulked him flatly and said we would have no 'democratic' paper but a Socialist and Labour one - boldly proclaimed. Why does MacDonald always seem to try and shirk the word Socialism except when he is writing critical books about the subject." (15) Labour Party poster on the House of Lords (1910) Labour Party poster on the House of Lords (1910) At the end of July, 1914, it became clear to the British government that the country was on the verge of war with Germany. Four senior members of the government, Charles Trevelyan, David Lloyd George, John Burns and John Morley, were opposed to the country becoming involved in a European war. They informed the Prime Minister, Herbert Asquith, that they intended to resign over the issue. When war was declared on 4th August, three of the men, Trevelyan, Burns and Morley, resigned, but Asquith managed to persuade Lloyd George, his Chancellor of the Exchequer, to change his mind. (16) The anti-war newspaper, The Daily News, commented: "Among the many reports which are current as to Ministerial resignations there seems to be little doubt in regard to three. They are those of Lord Morley, Mr. John Burns, and Mr. Charles Trevelyan. There will be widespread sympathy with the action they have taken. Whether men approve of that action or not it is a pleasant thing in this dark moment to have this witness to the sense of honour and to the loyalty to conscience which it indicates... Mr. Trevelyan will find abundant work in keeping vital those ideals which are at the root of liberty and which are never so much in danger as in times of war and social disruption." (17) The First World War The Labour Party was completely divided by their approach to the First World War. Those who opposed the war, included Ramsay MacDonald, Keir Hardie, Philip Snowden, John Glasier, George Lansbury, Alfred Salter, William Mellor and Fred Jowett. Others in the party such as Arthur Henderson, George Barnes, J. R. Clynes, William Adamson, Will Thorne and Ben Tillett believed that the movement should give total support to the war effort. On 5th August, 1914, the parliamentary party voted to support the government's request for war credits of £100,000,000. MacDonald immediately resigned the chairmanship. He wrote in his diary: "I saw it was no use remaining as the Party was divided and nothing but futility could result. The Chairmanship was impossible. The men were not working, were not pulling together, there was enough jealously to spoil good feeling. The Party was no party in reality. It was sad, but glad to get out of harness." (18) Independent Labour Party certificate (1914) Independent Labour Party certificate (1914) Opponents of the war in the Labour Party joined forces with rebels in the Liberal Party to form the Union of Democratic Control. Members of the UDC agreed that one of the main reasons for the conflict was the secret diplomacy of people like Britain's foreign secretary, Sir Edward Grey. They decided that the Union of Democratic Control should have three main objectives: (i) that in future to prevent secret diplomacy there should be parliamentary control over foreign policy; (ii) there should be negotiations after the war with other democratic European countries in an attempt to form an organization to help prevent future conflicts; (iii) that at the end of the war the peace terms should neither humiliate the defeated nation nor artificially rearrange frontiers as this might provide a cause for future wars. (19) In the 1918 General Election all the leading members of the peace movement lost their seats in Parliament. This included Ramsay MacDonald, Charles Trevelyan, Philip Snowden, George Lansbury and Fred Jowett. On the surface it seemed that the UDC had achieved very little. However, as A.J.P. Taylor has pointed out: "It launched a version of international relations which gradually won general acceptance far beyond the circle of those who knew they were being influenced by the UDC." (20) In the 1922 General Election the Labour Party won 142 seats, making it the second largest political group in the House of Commons after the Conservative Party (347). David Marquand has pointed out that: "The new parliamentary Labour Party was a very different body from the old one. In 1918, 48 Labour M.P.s had been sponsored by trade unions, and only three by the ILP. Now about 100 members belonged to the ILP, while 32 had actually been sponsored by it, as against 85 who had been sponsored by trade unions.... In Parliament, it could present itself for the first time as the movement of opinion rather than of class." (21) Labour Party poster for the 1923 General Election. Labour Party poster for the 1923 General Election. In the 1923 General Election, the Labour Party won 191 seats. Although the Conservative Party had 258 seats, Herbert Asquith announced that the Liberal Party would not keep the Tories in office. "With a House of Commons constituted as this House is it is idle to talk of the imminent dangers of a Socialist regime." If a Labour Government were ever to be tried in Britain, he declared, "it could hardly be tried under safer conditions". (22) On 22nd January, 1924 Stanley Baldwin resigned. At midday, Ramsay MacDonald went to Buckingham Palace to be appointed prime minister. He later recalled how George V complained about the singing of the Red Flag and the La Marseilles, at the Labour Party meeting in the Albert Hall a few days before. MacDonald apologized but claimed that there would have been a riot if he had tried to stop it. He added that he was having difficulties with his "extremists". He added "it had required all his influence and that of his moderate and immediate friends to prevent this taking place; they had got into the way of singing this song and it will be by degrees that he hopes to break down this habit." (23) Philip Snowden recalled how he had a meeting with Ramsay MacDonald, Jimmy Thomas, Arthur Henderson and Sidney Webb about the strategy of the Labour government. "The conversation turned upon what we might be able to do in the first session. There would be two courses open to us. We might use the opportunity for a demonstration and introduce some bold Socialist measures, knowing, of course, that we should be defeated upon them. Then we could go to the country with this illustration of what we would do if we had a Socialist majority. This was of course which had been urged by the extreme wing of the party (ILP), but it was not a policy which commended itself to reasonable opinion. I urged very strongly to this meeting that we should not adopt an extreme policy but should confine our legislative proposals to measures that we were likely to be able to carry... We must show the country that we were not under the domination of the wild men." (24) Labour Party poster for the 1924 General Election. Labour Party poster for the 1924 General Election. Only two Ministers, John Wheatley, at the Ministry of Health, and Fred Jowett, at the Office of Works, represented the left-wing of the party. According to Ralph Miliband: "Now, he (MacDonald) felt, was the Labour Party's great chance to dispel any suspicion that it was a party of revolt and to show the country how free a Labour Government was from any class bias." (25) As Ian S. Wood has pointed out: "Wheatley's Housing (Financial Provisions) Act was the only major legislative achievement of the 1924 Labour government. Until its subsidy provisions were repealed by the National Government in 1934, a substantial proportion of all rented local authority housing in Britain was built under its terms and sixty years later there were still people in Scotland who spoke of Wheatley houses. The act was a complex one, bringing together trade unions, building firms, and local authorities in a scheme to tackle a housing shortage which was guaranteed central government funding provided that building standards set by the act were adhered to." (26) Members of establishment were appalled by the idea of a Prime Minister who was a socialist. As Gill Bennett has argued, the intelligence services were working closely with the Conservative Party to bring the Labour government down: "Although the short-lived Labour Government was in many respects unexceptionably moderate, and surprisingly successful in both economic and foreign policy, its opponents were not only waiting for it to make a fatal mistake, but also working to undermine it in any way possible." (27) On 25th July 1924 John Ross Campbell published an "Open Letter to the Fighting Forces" in the Worker's Weekly newspaper that had been written anonymously by Harry Pollitt, the leader of the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB). The article called on soldiers to "let it be known that, neither in the class war nor in a military war, will you turn your guns on your fellow workers". Sir Patrick Hastings, the Attorney General, initially advised Ramsay MacDonald, to prosecute Campbell under the Incitement to Mutiny Act 1797. However, Hastings later changed his mind because he was "a man of otherwise excellent character with a fine war record." The opposition parties accused the minority Labour government of being under the influence of the CPGB. (28) In September 1924 the MI5 intercepted a letter written by Grigory Zinoviev, chairman of the Comintern in the Soviet Union. The Zinoviev Letter urged British communists to promote revolution through acts of sedition. Vernon Kell, head of MI5 and Sir Basil Thomson head of Special Branch, told Ramsay MacDonald that they were convinced that the letter was genuine. While this was going on MacDonald faced a motion of no confidence in the House of Commons over the way he had dealt with the John Ross Campbell case. In the debate that took place on 8th October, MacDonald gave an uninspiring account of events and when he lost the motion by 304 to 191 votes, he decided to resign and a general election was announced for Wednesday, 29th October, 1924. It was initially agreed that the Zinoviev Letter should be kept secret. However, just before the election, someone leaked news of the letter to the Times and the Daily Mail. The letter was published in these newspapers four days before the 1924 General Election and contributed to the defeat of MacDonald. The Conservatives won 412 seats and formed the next government. The real losers in the election were the Liberals who now only had 42 MPs. Labour actually gained 1.1 million votes though they lost forty seats, falling to 151. "Labour had established itself, not a party of real socialism (which at that time would not have attracted many millions of votes) but as the credible party to form His Majesty's Opposition". (29) Ramsay MacDonald suggested he had been a victim of a political conspiracy: "I am also informed that the Conservative Headquarters had been spreading abroad for some days that... a mine was going to be sprung under our feet, and that the name of Zinoviev was to be associated with mine. Another Guy Fawkes - a new Gunpowder Plot... The letter might have originated anywhere. The staff of the Foreign Office up to the end of the week thought it was authentic... I have not seen the evidence yet. All I say is this, that it is a most suspicious circumstance that a certain newspaper and the headquarters of the Conservative Association seem to have had copies of it at the same time as the Foreign Office, and if that is true how can I avoid the suspicion - I will not say the conclusion - that the whole thing is a political plot?" (30) After the election it was claimed that two of MI5's agents, Sidney Reilly and Arthur Maundy Gregory, had forged the letter. According to Christopher Andrew, the author of The Defence of the Realm: The Authorized History of MI5 (2009), it was clear that Major George Joseph Ball (1885-1961), a MI5 officer, played an important role in leaking it to the press. In 1927 Ball went to work for the Conservative Central Office where he pioneered the idea of spin-doctoring. (31) Of the 151 MPs, 114 were members of the ILP. H. N. Brailsford, became the new editor of the the ILP newspaper, the New Leader (the former Labour Leader). As chairman of the party, Clifford Allen helped to formulate ILP policy with pamphlets such as Putting Socialism Into Practice (1924), The ILP and Revolution (1925) and Socialism in Our Time (1926). In opposition the ILP devoted much effort to "formulate policies which would, in its view, be appropriate to a movement which was theoretically pledged to the establishment of a socialist society in Britain". It also attempted to persuade the Labour Party "to incorporate these policies in its own programme" and "to compel the Labour leadership to act upon these policies". (32) In 1925 James Maxton led the "Socialism in Our Time" campaign and the following year was elected as leader of the ILP. It was reported that by 1927 the ILP became a growing influence in the Labour Party. It was claimed, with some justification, "a very marked growth of the organized left-wing opposition within the British Labour Party... which is causing the Right-Wing Labour bureaucracy more and more anxiety and alarm". A conference was held in September of that year where 54 local branches of the Labour Party were represented. (33) Ramsay MacDonald continued with his policy of presenting the Labour Party as a moderate force in politics and refused to support the 1926 General Strike. MacDonald argued that strikes should not be used as a political weapon and that the best way to obtain social reform was through parliamentary elections. He was especially critical of A. J. Cook. He wrote in his diary: "It really looks tonight as though there was to be a General Strike to save Mr. Cook's face... The election of this fool as miners' secretary looks as though it would be the most calamitous thing that ever happened to the T.U. movement." (34) James Maxton by John Lavery James Maxton by John Lavery At the 1928 Annual Conference, James Maxton and Arthur J. Cook, published a manifesto that complained that "in recent times" there had been "a serious departure from the principles and policy which animated the founders". The authors went on to argue: "As a result of the new conception that Socialism and Capitalism should sink their differences, much of the energy which should be expended in fighting Capitalism is now expanded in crushing everybody who dares to remain true to the ideals of the Movement." (35) Armed with the crushing power of the trade union vote, the Labour leadership was able to defeat the policies proposed by the ILP. Philip Snowden, who had left the ILP in 1927, proposed the ILP disbandment. Clifford Allen, one of MacDonald's close advisers, argued that this would be a mistake as "there was a necessity for a Left Wing organization in the larger Party; otherwise there would be a tendency of certain elements to drift towards the Communist Party". (36) By 1928 Ramsay MacDonald was 62 years old. He wrote in his diary: "How tired I am. My brain is fagged, work is difficult, and there is a darkness on the face of the land. I am ashamed of some speeches I have made, but what can I do? I have no time to prepare anything. It looks as though it will be harder to make my necessary income this year. I wonder how this problem of an income for political Labour leaders with no, or small, independent means is to be solved. No one seems to understand it. To be the paid servant of the State is objectionable; to begin making an income on Friday afternoon and going hard at it till Sunday night, taking meetings in the interval, is too wearing for human flesh and blood. On the other hand, to live on £400 a year is impossible. If it killed one in a clean, efficient business-like way why should one object, but it cripples and tortures first by lowering the quality of work done and then by pushing one into long months of slowly ebbing vitality and mental paralysis." (37) MacDonald's moderate image was popular with the voters and he was expected to lead his party to victory in the 1929 General Election. However, some thought that the party needed to promise more dramatic reform. Richard Tawney sent a letter to the leaders of the party: "If the Labour Election Programme is to be of any use it must have something concrete and definite about unemployment... What is required is a definite statement that (a) Labour Government will initiate productive work on a larger scale, and will raise a loan for the purpose. (b) That it will maintain from national funds all men not absorbed in such work." MacDonald refused to be persuaded by Tawney's ideas and rejected the idea that unemployment could be cured by public works. During the election campaign, David Lloyd George, the leader of the Liberal Party, published a pamphlet, We Can Conquer Unemployment, where he proposed a government scheme where 350,000 men were to be employed on road-building, 60,000 on housing, 60,000 on telephone development and 62,000 on electrical development. The coast would be £250 million, and the money would be raised by loan. John Maynard Keynes, the country's leading economist, also published a pamphlet supporting Lloyd George's scheme. (38) In the 1929 General Election the Conservatives won 8,664,000 votes, the Labour Party 8,360,000 and the Liberals 5,300,000. However, the bias of the system worked in Labour's favour, and in the House of Commons the party won 287 seats, the Conservatives 261 and the Liberals 59. MacDonald became Prime Minister again, but as before, he still had to rely on the support of the Liberals to hold onto power. MacDonald refused to appoint left-wing members of his party to his cabinet. This included John Wheatley who had been a great success as housing minister in the 1924 government. Philip Snowden later recalled: "During the time we had been in Opposition (1925-29), Wheatley had dissociated himself from his former Cabinet colleagues, and had gone to the back benches into the company of the Clydesiders. In the country, too, he had made speeches attacking his late colleagues. MacDonald was strongly opposed to offering him a post in the new Government. Wheatley had deserted us and insulted us, and MacDonald thought the country would be shocked if he were included in the Cabinet, and it would be taken as evidence of rebel influence." However, Arthur Henderson, disagreed with MacDonald. So did Snowden, who argued: "Arthur Henderson took the view, and I was inclined to agree with him, that it might be better to have him inside than outside. I took this view from my experience of him as a Minister. he was a man who, when free from the responsibility of office, would make extreme speeches; but as a Minister I had always found him to be reasonable and practical." (39) In March 1931 MacDonald asked Sir George May, to form a committee to look into Britain's economic problems. The committee included two members that had been nominated from the three main political parties. At the same time, John Maynard Keynes, the chairman of the Economic Advisory Council, published his report on the causes and remedies for the depression. This included an increase in public spending and by curtailing British investment overseas. Philip Snowden rejected these ideas and this was followed by the resignation of Charles Trevelyan, the Minister of Education. In a letter to the prime minister he explained his actions: "For some time I have realized that I am very much out of sympathy with the general method of Government policy. In the present disastrous condition of trade it seems to me that the crisis requires big Socialist measures. We ought to be demonstrating to the country the alternatives to economy and protection. Our value as a Government today should be to make people realize that Socialism is that alternative." (40) Trevelyan told a meeting of the Parliamentary Labour Party that the main reason he had resigned: "I have for some time been painfully aware that I am utterly dissatisfied with the main strategy of the leaders of the party. But I thought it my duty to hold on as long as I had a definite job in trying to pass the Education Bill. I never expected a complete breakthrough to Socialism in this Parliament. But I did expect it to prepare the way by a Government which in spirit and vigour made such a contrast with the Tories and Liberals that we should be sure of conclusive victory next time." He attacked the government for refusing to introduce socialist measures to deal with the economic crisis. He was also a supporter of the economist John Maynard Keynes: "Now we are plunged into an exampled trade depression and suffering the appalling record of unemployment. It is a crisis almost as terrible as war. The people are in just the mood to accept a new and bold attempt to deal with radical evils. But all we have got is a declaration of economy from the Chancellor of the Exchequer. We apparently have opted, almost without discussion, the policy of economy. It implies a faith, a faith that reduction of expenditure is the way to salvation. No comrades. It is not good enough for a Socialist party to meet this crisis with economy. The very root of our faith is the prosperity comes from the high spending power of the people, and that public expenditure on the social services is always remunerative." (41) On 24th August 1931, MacDonald formed a National Government. Only three members of the Labour administration, Philip Snowden, Jimmy Thomas and John Sankey agreed to join the government. Other appointments included Stanley Baldwin (Lord President of the Council), Neville Chamberlain (Health), Samuel Hoare (Secretary of State for India), Herbert Samuel (Home Office), Philip Cunliffe-Lister (Board of Trade) and Lord Reading (Foreign Office). On 8th September 1931, the National Government's programme of £70 million economy programme was debated in the House of Commons. This included a £13 million cut in unemployment benefit. Tom Johnson, who wound up the debate for the Labour Party, declared that these policies were "not of a National Government but of a Wall Street Government". In the end the Government won by 309 votes to 249, but only 12 Labour M.P.s voted for the measures. (42) The cuts in public expenditure did not satisfy the markets. The withdrawals of gold and foreign exchange continued. On September 16th, the Bank of England lost £5 million; on the 17th, £10 million; and on the 18th, nearly £18 million. On the 20th September, the Cabinet agreed to leave the Gold Standard, something that John Maynard Keynes had advised the government to do on 5th August. On 26th September, the Labour Party National Executive decided to expel all members of the National Government including Ramsay MacDonald, Philip Snowden, Jimmy Thomas and John Sankey. As David Marquand has pointed out: "In the circumstances, its decision was understandable, perhaps inevitable. The Labour movement had been built on the trade-union ethic of loyalty to majority decisions. MacDonald had defied that ethic; to many Labour activists, he was now a kind of political blackleg, who deserved to be treated accordingly." (43) The 1931 General Election was held on 27th October, 1931. MacDonald led an anti-Labour alliance made up of Conservatives and National Liberals. It was a disaster for the Labour Party with only 46 members winning their seats. Several leading Labour figures, including Charles Trevelyan, Arthur Henderson, John R. Clynes, Arthur Greenwood, Jennie Lee, Herbert Morrison, Emanuel Shinwell, Frederick Pethick-Lawrence, Hugh Dalton, Susan Lawrence, William Wedgwood Benn, and Margaret Bondfield lost their seats. The Socialist League After the election most members of the Labour Party rejected the gradualist doctrines of the MacDonald leadership. In the 1920s MacDonald had argued that socialism "would evolve from capitalism as the oak from the acorn". This view was now totally discredited. Capitalism had plunged the working class into mass unemployment and the MacDonald government had demanded cuts in the standard of living of workers. Most members, including those on the right of the party, had concluded that henceforth the only way forward was the "decisive transformation to socialism". (44) The Independent Labour Party, the main left-wing pressure group in the Labour Party, decided to disaffiliate from the Party. It was replaced by another left-wing pressure group, the Socialist League. Members included G.D.H. Cole, William Mellor, Stafford Cripps, H. N. Brailsford, D. N. Pritt, R. H. Tawney, Frank Wise, David Kirkwood, Neil Maclean, Frederick Pethick-Lawrence, Alfred Salter, Jennie Lee, Harold Laski, Frank Horrabin, Ellen Wilkinson, Aneurin Bevan, Ernest Bevin, Arthur Pugh, Michael Foot and Barbara Betts. J. T. Murphy became its secretary. Murphy saw the Socialist League as "the organization of revolutionary socialists who are an integral part of the Labour movement for the purpose of winning it completely for revolutionary socialism". (45) George Lansbury, the new left-wing leader of the Labour Party, was sympathetic to the ideas of the Socialist League and it was no surprise that at the 1932 Labour Conference agreed that once in power they would take all banks into public ownership on the grounds that control of them would be essential for real socialist planning. Another successful Socialist League resolution laid down "that the leaders of the next Labour Government and the Parliamentary Labour Party be instructed by the National Conference that, on assuming office... definite Socialist legislation must be immediately promulgated... we must have Socialism in deed as well as in words". (46) A. J. A. Morris, pointed out that the wealthy Charles Trevelyan, the first of MacDonald's ministers to resign over his right-wing policies, helped to fund the group. "Trevelyan... encouraged the Socialist League, gave help both political and material to a number of aspiring and established left-wingers, and seemed quite convinced that the Labour Party was at last committed to socialism. There was a brief moment of personal triumph at the annual party conference in 1933. He successfully introduced a resolution that, if there were even a threat of war, the Labour Party would call a general strike." (47) Gilbert Mitchison, a member of the Socialist League, published a much-discussed book, The First Workers' Government (1934), advocating an enabling act under which a future Labour government would nationalize most of the economy and redistribute wealth, bringing in socialism almost overnight. Clement Attlee, another member of the Socialist League, wrote at this time: "The moment to strike is the moment of taking power when the Government is freshly elected and assured of its support. The blow struck must be a fatal one and not merely designed to wound and to turn a sullen and obstructive opponent into an active and deadly enemy." (48) In May 1936, the Left Book Club was formed. It's monthly offerings, selected by Victor Gollancz, John Strachey and Harold Laski, became highly successful. The main aim was to spread socialist ideas and to resist the rise of fascism in Britain. Gollancz announced: "The aim of the Left Book Club is a simple one. It is to help in the terribly urgent struggle for world peace and against fascism, by giving, to all who are willing to take part in that struggle, such knowledge as will immensely increase their efficiency." (49) As Ruth Dudley Edwards, the author of Victor Gollancz: A Biography (1987), pointed out: "They were a formidable trio: Laski the academic theoretician; Strachey the gifted popularizer; and Victor the inspired publicist. All three had known a lifelong passion for politics and all had swung violently left in the early 1930s. Only Victor did not describe himself as completely Marxist, though he was objectively indistinguishable from the real article." (50) Within a short period the Left Book Club achieved a membership of nearly 60,000 and had some 1,200 local discussion groups linked by a monthly bulletin, Left News. "In addition, there were functional groups for scientists, doctors, engineers, lawyers, teachers, civil servants, poets, writers, artists, musicians and actors; and the Club was also responsible for the arrangement of rallies, meetings, lectures, weekend and vacation schools." (51) Ben Pimlott, the author of Labour and the Left (1977) has argued: "The growth of the Club was partly spontaneous, partly a consequence of imaginative organization From the start, giant Club rallies were held in large halls all over the country. In attendance and in drama, the Club's biggest meetings outdid any organized by the Labour Party. People came to a Club rally as to a revivalist meeting, to hear the best orators of the far left - Laski, Strachey, Pollitt, Gallacher, Ellen Wilkinson, Pritt, Bevan, Strauss, Cripps, plus the occasional non-socialist, such as the Liberal, Richard Acland." (52) Clement Attlee replaced George Lansbury as leader of the Labour Party. Attlee now left the Socialist League and began to move the party to the right. In 1936 Hugh Dalton became Chairman of the Labour Party National Executive, and Ernest Bevin, another former member of the League, became Chairman of the General Council of the Trade Union Congress. They were now in a position to oppose left-wing policies that were favoured by its membership. (53) Attlee first decided to tackle the Labour League of Youth, who he believed was under the control of the Socialist League. In an investigation carried out in 1936 it claimed that "the real object of the League is to enroll large numbers of young people, and by a social life of its own, provide opportunities for young people to study Party Policy and to give loyal support to the Party of which they are members." The Executive decided to remove the right of the Labour League of Youth to be involved in policy decisions. (54) On 27th January, 1937, the Labour Party decided to disaffiliate the Socialist League. They also began considering expelling members of the League. G.D.H. Cole and George Lansbury responded by urging the party not to start a "heresy hunt". Arthur Greenwood was one of those who argued that the rebel leader, Stafford Cripps, should be immediately expelled. Cripps was expelled by the National Executive Committee by eighteen to one. He was followed by Charles Trevelyan, Aneurin Bevan and George Strauss in February. On 24th March, 1937, the National Executive Committee declared that members of the Socialist League would be ineligible for Labour Party membership from 1st June. Over the next few weeks membership fell from 3,000 to 1,600. In May, G.D.H. Cole and other leading members decided to dissolve the Socialist League.

Jordon Ibe and Lys Mousset enjoy time off in the desert before hitting weights in Dubai

Jordon Ibe and Lys Mousset enjoy time in the desert before they hit weights with the Bournemouth squadron in hot weather in Dubai

Howe keeps his players hungry this week by training them hard in the sun in Dubai – even if some of them seem to be having fun in the desert

Celtic survive late scare in six-goal thriller with Hibs

Celtic survived a late scare to stay within three points of Premiership leaders Hearts after an enthralling victory over Hibernian.

Tom Rogic and Olivier Ntcham had Brendan Rodgers’ side two goals up within 20 minutes before Scott Brown went off injured.

Florian Kamberi gave Hibs hope before Odsonne Edouard restored Celtic’s two-goal lead on 70 minutes.

Martin Boyle countered immediately but Edouard sealed victory late on.

It was drama from the first to the last whistle at Celtic Park as Rodgers’ men racked up their third Premiership victory in a row.

Hibs fall five points off the pace as they sit in fourth.

Celtic toyed with Hibs

The injury to regular right-back David Gray was pivotal as Hibs changed their shape to a back three. But the formation failed to work as Celtic ran riot going forward.

With only Leigh Griffiths missing from the team that thrashed St Johnstone 6-0 last time out, the champions were clearly keen to pick up where they left off and they relished sinking their teeth into Hibs. Two goals swiftly arrived along with three other efforts off the post as Rodgers’ side toyed with their opponents.

The goal from Rogic was typically elegant from the Australian international. The Ntcham goal was a fine team effort and Edouard profited from a searing moment of wing play from James Forrest before putting the seal on the win with a second.

Hibs would tweak their formation midway through the first half to match up with Celtic, and it brought more stability for the away side as they began to create opportunities. But by then Celtic were in control.

The goals from Kamberi and Boyle gave the second half fizz but in truth Hibs were always on the catch up after their bad start.

<!–

Lennon gamble fails to pay off

There was much excited talk in the lead-up to this match over whether or not Hibernian could be considered legitimate title contenders. Neil Lennon had branded such talk as “folly”. On this basis he was correct to do so.

Before the match – and to his credit – the Hibs boss talked about taking the game to Celtic. But the gamble failed as Celtic took control.

Of course this was always going to be a tough test for Hibs, and they remain a work in progress. But in the corresponding fixture last season Hibs truly did take the game to Celtic and came away with a 2-2 draw. So in that context this 4-2 defeat will feel like a setback.

Credit to Celtic. They have been asked many a question this season and at times they have fumbled the answer.

But they have now beaten big rivals Rangers, Aberdeen and Hibernian – albeit it, all at home. The mojo might not be back completely, but they are delivering the results.

HUMONGOUS Gallery Of Mopar Readers Rides!

The results are in and the photos sent in by Mopar Muscle readers around the world are awesome. From the get-go, we got piles of packages of pristine Pentastars and at times we thought the deluge would never end. When the June 17, 2017 deadline finally arrived, we had amassed well over 100 entries, proving that at the end of the day, print magazines still rule, and getting on the newsstand trumps being buried in a Facebook feed any day. Disagree? Next time you go to a show, see how many cars display posters with magazine stories of their car in print.

If you sent in pix of your pride and joy and followed our simple guidelines, there’s a 98 percent chance your car made it into the story. That said, we had to make some tough decisions at times, such as limiting the number of cars submitted per reader to just two. (Yes, we know some of you are prodigious collectors!) There were also technical reasons some didn’t get in, like you forgot to hit the “burn” button on your cd, or you forgot to submit a tech sheet with a signed affidavit attesting you were the photographer. (And while we’re at it, at least one of you doesn’t know which way you want to spell your own name.) One person even sent in their entry two weeks after the deadline. Sorry pal! You had over five months to get it together!

Some of the images are truly breathtaking, making it hard to pick the best. What we noticed is that some of you are quite adept at expressing the shape, stance, and personality of your Mopars. This is not uncommon. You may have drawn Mopars as a bored kid sitting in math class, or you may have spent hundreds of hours smoothing body panels for paint—the fact is, you know the lines that drive you crazy, and you found a way to succinctly capture that. Thanks for taking the time to show us—through your eyes—what you see when you look at your machine.

In the end though, we had to go with the amazing work of 40-year-old Brian Turney (San Diego, CA), who knocked us over with pix of his 2006 Dodge Magnum SRT8. Brian has apparently been paying rapt attention to some of the best automotive photographers on the planet, as he combined his eye for detail, composition, and lighting with competencies in lensmanship and photo illustration. Congratulations to Brian on a job well done. We hope he enjoys his grand prize of $800 worth of Auto Meter Custom Shop gauges!

Grand Prize: Auto Meter Custom Shop Gauges

Until recently, only the most lavishly equipped machines on the show car circuit had one-off instrumentation. Then Auto Meter came up with a great idea: set up a custom shop for gauges so that anybody could get exactly what they want. The Auto Meter Custom Shop lets customers design their own gauges with unique color faces, ticking, pointers, cover glass, fonts, bezels, and lighting. If it’s part of a gauge, the Auto Meter Custom Shop can do it for you. After logging on to the Auto Meter Custom Shop website, download the Custom Shop configurator, and start picking out your gauges with all the features you want. As you build your dream gauge package, the gauges take shape right on the screen. You can try out several different designs, save them for future reference, or compare them. You can even print them out and try them in your car before ordering. And all while you’re building your virtual gauges, the cost is updated and displayed with every revision. You’ll also be quite surprised how affordable it is; when compared to a standard set of catalog gauges, it’s only a few extra bucks. Once you order them, they’ll show up at your door in a beautiful handcrafted wood box. They look so nice, you won’t even want to put them in your car!

WINNER!

2006 Dodge Magnum SRT8 | Brian Turney; San Diego, CA “Pam The Demon Wagon” is the name Brian Turney—an IT manager from San Diego—has given to his 2006 Dodge Magnum SRT8. Brian has been a Mopar guy ever since he was four months old, which coincides with his parents buying a new 1977 Dodge Aspen station wagon. That car would later accompany him to college almost two decades later. His current car, the SRT8 Magnum, is the Aspen wagon’s spiritual incarnation. Brian writes: “In 2014, I was driving down the Coast Highway in San Diego and I ended up behind a Dodge Magnum SRT8. Memories of my Aspen wagon came back to me. I decided it was time to get another wagon and started shopping for one. I found one on Auto Trader being sold by a private seller. During the test drive, I was hooked. After coming to an agreement on price, I took one last look at her in the garage as I walked away. That’s when I saw the license plate frame, which said ‘Kimi’s Hemi.’ This was the exact car I had seen a few weeks prior on the Coast Highway! It was meant to be.” Brian has kept the 425hp 6.1L Hemi all stock, except for a Borla exhaust.

On the photography side of things, Brian is a bit of a self-professed nerd. Besides driving his SRT8, Brian loves photography, and has put his Canon 5D Mark II and L-Series zoom lens to good use. On the post side, Brian uses Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom to amp up the emotion and deepen the mystery. We would put his photography and Photoshop chops on par with our best contributors—our only gripe (and it’s a small one) being that he needs to increase his depth of field and lower the ISO (to reduce noise) just a tad.

13 Ways To Fail At The Mopar Muscle Photo Contest

From month to month, we typically feature cars that are extraordinary in some manner. Highlighting the best of the breed—whether that’s for customization, speed, rarity, ingenuity, or the perseverance of its owner—is the goal in light of the fact that we typically only have the resources to feature between 24 and 36 cars each year. That means a lot of folks don’t get into the magazine. To level the playing field and give the typical Mopar owner a chance, we’ve created the Photo Contest, which places the emphasis on your photography, not your car-building or income-earning prowess. We’ve lowered the bar so that theoretically at least everybody with decent eyesight and a smartphone can participate. Nevertheless, some find it difficult to hold a cellphone camera level and get the entire car in the shot. To keep guys on the right track, we even provided a list of photo tips to follow when shooting a car for a magazine. Those tips can be found in our original call-out introducing the Photo Contest here [Get Mopar Muscle Magazine Win Auto Meter Gauges]. Naturally, Mopar guys can be a stubborn breed. Who among us hasn’t laughed heartily while tossing out the instructions for installing or assembling an expensive piece of equipment? The same thing happened here. Forthwith, enjoy the failures depicted below, and please don’t take it too personally if you find your photo!

1. Chop the front (or back) of the car off. Heaven forbid you take a few steps backward to get the whole thing in.

2. Cars are like cattle, and are in their element driving through the pasture. Show them grazing on grass.3. Shoot into the sun with harsh back lighting and plenty of lens flare.

3. Don’t give the subject visual room to breathe. Crop the photo right to the edge.

4. Make large, strange objects grow out of the roof of the car. Helicopters, tanks, totem poles, flags—let ’em know Armageddon is coming!

5. Don’t wipe the pocket lint and sweat off your cellphone camera’s lens before you shoot. That would take too much time.

6. Looking for a large enough piece of pavement to shoot a car is such a hassle. Just roll it halfway off the road.

7. Turn it into a selfie and get your own shadow in the photo.

8. Tilt the camera at a crazy angle, then crop it so we can’t put the horizon straight again. Because keeping your lunch in your stomach is really overrated.

9. Make all your best shots vertical in the presumption it’s going to be the main cover of the magazine.

10. Drive your car into the swamp, or at least get the tires soggy at the edge. Again, this is a completely natural environment for a Mopar.

11. Crop the photo so flat, it can only be viewed through the rear window of a new Camaro.

12. Destroy a really great photo by setting the windows at weird openings, or leaving the quarter windows up on a convertible.

13. Spend 30 seconds taking your cellphone shots in harsh midday light, then spend half a day triple-wrapping your photo cd in bubble plastic, printing giant 8×10 pix at Staples, assembling your tech sheet and story in a hefty scrapbook, then pack it all carefully in a giant box with half a roll of packing tape.
