THAT REVOLUTIONARIES need to study the past goes without saying but Mick
Costello, the Industrial Editor of the Morning Star in the 1980s, put
his special take on the significance of history in one of the opening
talks at the Red Star Festival in London last weekend.

London comrades gathered at the historic Marx Memorial Library in
Clerkenwell Green to meet friends, old and new, for two days of
discussion, debate, culture, music and food with national and
international speakers from the labour, progressive and anti-imperialist
movements.
Organised by the Marx Memorial Library, Communist Party of Britain,
Young Communist League-Britain, the Morning Star, New Communist Party
and the Coordinating Committee of Communist Parties in Britain the
festival featured a wide range of speakers from the labour and
progressive movement in Britain and international guests in debates,
workshops and round-table discussions.
