🎙️In our (slightly delayed) January episode of the Irish Left Archive Podcast, we talk to Jim Monaghan about his political activism since the 1960s in various Republican and Trotskyist groups including the League for A Workers' Republic, Workers' League, Official Sinn Féin, People's Democracy and the H-Block/Armagh Committee.

Many thanks to Jim for his time and insight on Left political activity in Ireland!

Scanned text reading: "After an existence of 11 months the Cork Branch of the ICO on 31 January, 1971 seceded from the Irish Communist Organisation (ICO) and reconstituted itself as the Cork Communist Organisation (CCO). The decision to secede from the ICO was unanimous and followed several weeks discussion by the members of the Cork Branch. The following pamphlet outlines the circumstances which led to the split. The ICO statement on the split, ‘Nationalist Disruption of the Communist Movement’ (Irish Communist, May 1971) is also commented on in Part One, as are their statements ; ‘Nationalist Slander’ (Communist Comment, 21 August, 1971) and ‘Nationalist Disruption 2’ (Irish Communist, October 1971) in Part Two."
