THERE ARE TWO faces to Thatcher's Britain. There is Windsor Castle, the House of Lords and the pomp and ceremony that will greet Ronald Reagan when he arrives in June. And there are those on whom the system rests; the millions of workers whose wage levels are being eroded, youth, women and the dole, and, abroad, the irish people and the enslaved blacks of South Africa.

Socialist Challenge exposes the first as the crap second face of Britain against their oppressors.
