Dear Ms Bradley,
I am in receipt of your letter of April 26. I will ignore the many offensive and frankly outlandish comments and assertions in your letter and address simply the issue raised in relation to the demonstration on March 18.
The WCPI was asked to move its stall in Parliament Square because it was in the area where we were setting up tables to collect signatures for the petition for an enquiry into the decision to go to war against Iraq. The SWP stall was not put in front of the WCPI stall – it was on the opposite side of a very wide paved area. Stewards asked for this second stall to be taken down for the same reason. At no time were the police involved in any way at all. I know all this because I was there at the time.
We see no virtue in a debate with your group regarding Political Islam. You are not an StWC affiliate, and I have seen nothing to suggest that such an event would generate any light.
Yours sincerely
Andrew Murray
Chair
