Morning Star paper in Sheff?

[Aliceee 10]

Does anyone know anywhere in town (or nearby) which sells The Morning Star?

 

Thanks in advance!

Sorry but no.

Odd, though, that it is sold- what with:

a. Communism being a thing of the past; and

b. (if Proudhon was right that 'Property is theft') it's capable of being sold for money as opposed to being free.

Surely as a moderator you would delete your post. Taking the thread off subject and having a go at the OP

And it's available in the library to read and some Saintsbury's (not seen in Sheffield ones).

I know they stock it at the Gleadless Road Co-op in Heeley, and I'm pretty darn sure I've seen it in Queens Road Asda, so maybe try other branches closer to the centre of town.

Communism is a thing of the past???? China, Cuba, Laos, North Korea and Vietnam are all Communist countries. That's a sizeable chunk of the World's population.

And it always was, the Star part of the title gives an impression of Communism to some people. Of course Communists read and subscribe to it as they are also socialists, in a kind of extreme way.

What has Proudhon got to do with it? The Morning Star, derived from the Stalinists' Daily Worker and relaunched as a "leftie" paper has never been, nor claimed to be, an anarchist publication

Man in Fargate near Chapel walk sells it

Funny that because

 

a. Your party's big hero, Vladimir Putin, is ex-KGB and still behaving like it and

b. Proudhon was an anarchist, not a communist.

 

Incidentally there's a rue Proudhon in his home town of Besancon and yes there is an estate agent's on it.
