Workers Press, Friday Decembe 1971 XMAS is a time when traditionally you're sup- posed to put your troubles behind you, or at least, in the well-worn words of the Catholic church, offer them up for the greater glory of God'. Religion in Ireland thrives on the poverty and poor conditions in which people find them- selves. If people didn't have some hope of happiness in an after life, how could they bear to face the misery and hopelessness of their present lives? It was Lenin who pointed out 'Religion is the opium of the people'. And it is the opiate that best serves the interests of British imperi- alism in dividing the working class in Ulster.

For many people this year, however, it will be difficult, in fact, impossible, to forget their problems. Families with sons, husbands and fathers interned will remember that the British army of occupation still occupies and that the bloody hand of British imperialism still threatens their homes.

All regions as BBC-1 except: news. Weather and 0.30 Croeso't Castell Workers Press, Friday Decembe The toughest judge in the land MR JUSTICE Melford Steven- son, who sentenced Jake Pres- cott to 15 years, is now regarded as the severest judge sitting on the criminal bench. Stevenson, widely remembered for his jailing of students involved in the Garden House riot at Cambridge University 'in 1970, lives in Sussex. The name of his house is • 'Truncheons'. 'The Guardian' (December 2, 1971) reports: 'He was called to the Bar 1925, and was appointed Recorder of the City of Cambridge in 1952. He stood as a Conservative candidate for Maldon in 1945 when he was chairman of Bromley Conserva- tive Association. For some time he shared a flat with Sir David Maxwell Fyfe.' Maxwell Fyfe, the late Earl of Kilmuir, started his career as a Tory MP first for Liverpool and Dusting up god's image THE ROMAN. Catholic church has fully succumbed to the era of the PR man. Out go all those fuddy duddy epistles, now comes the new of Madison language Avenue. Take this new report prepared by Cardinal Heenan and a team of bishops which has just been adopted by the Bishops' Con- ference of England and Wales.

It calls for 'more involvement in church decision-making by the man-in-the-pew'. Xmas bonus for Nigel AS EVERY worker now strug- gles to make his devalued wages last the long Christmas week- end, Nigel Broakes, dynamic chairman of investment and pro- perty group Trafalgar House, has solved his own problems. His firm has simply sold the freeholds of three properties in the. City of London for some- thing like £4.7 million. The point is that this is eight times the amount Trafalgar paid them less than five years for ago! Now the Tories are always moaning about inflation and huge wage increases (which only they seem to get). Yet inflation in the order of 800 per cent in five years--that goes, through on the nod, as something to be admired. Property values can fly as high as they like. After all, the pro- tection of private rights to pro- perty, is dear to their hearts.

You will remember that it was Trafalgar House which bought Liberalism dies at the Guardian IF YOU'VE ever met a 'Guardian' (which is reporter pretty doubtful, admittedly, as actually they tend not to fre- quent the picket lines), you will certain smugness of notice demeanour. As liberals, you see, they've got the game sewn up-- or so they think. They conduct themselves with that aloofness which comes from years of 'theorizing' about "social problems. They have built up a reputa- tion of 'radicalism' too-which has more to do with the old 'Manchester Guardian' days than the crowd who now inhabit the editorial offices in Thomson House, London. of 'radicalism' is This image dying swiftly. No better example exists than in the person of Michael Lake. Lake previously worked on Friday December 24, 1971

then W Derby. In 1945 he became Attorney General. From 1951 to 1954, Maxwell Fyfe was the Tory Home Secre- tary and it is for his actions durirg this period that he is best rememberea. A defective, mental Derek Bentley, aged 19, was sent to the gallows by Maxwell Fyfe for his alleged part in shooting a police- man during an attempted raid on a warehouse in S London. Police reports stated that a younger boy, lan Craig (16), had actually shot the policeman but Bentley hanged because was Craig was under age and because he had allegedly urged Craig to shoot. After leaving Parliament, Maxwell Fyfe became a company director and for •e years was chairman of Plessiy. He died in 1967. The report, naturally enough, is called 'Commissions-Aid to a pastoral strategy. The report recommends a 'mix- ture of expert opinion and down- to-earth , comment at episcopal commission meetings'. They want commissions to operate as 'think tanks'.

The only PR cliché not used was that old chestnut of the Wil- son era-'the white hot techno- logical revolution'. the ailing in Cunar idea ship Company in the middle November. The point was that Cunard had £13m of accumulated tax allowances. Not only that, but the government-subsidized firm carried with it f60m in free depreciation. Without doubt Nigel Broakes knows his tax laws. The £60m can be set against other forms of business in the Trafalgar group. When it comes to asking for a wage increase to keep up with soaring prices, the answer from the Tory government--have 7 per cent and no more. Take a wage cut, in other words.

When he was on the Labour-oriented 'Sun', Lake, a New Zealander, was regarded as something of a Young Turk. He covered the diplomatic round.

But that was more than two years ago. Listen to him now in 'The Guardian'. In article an describing the Special Branch precautions for guarding embas- sies and envoys, Lake says: "The American ambassador, the Hon Walter Annenberg, is another semi-permanent candidate for special protection 1- by hired security guards with dogs as well as the Special Branch and US Marines—because not only is he the nation whose envoy of a policies are sometimes regarded by freaks and nuts from all corners of the world as being in bad taste, Mr Annenberg is also a Jew?
