From 1949: “Irish Workers' Road to Freedom”
The Manifesto of the Irish Workersʼ League (IWL).
The IWL (later Irish Workersʼ Party) was formed in the late 1940s in the South, after the Communist Party of Ireland (CPI) dissolved during WWII.
In 1970, it merged with the Communist Party of Northern Ireland to re-found the CPI.

Irish Workers' Road to Freedom (1949) — Irish Workers' League

From Irish Socialist, newspaper of the Communist Party of Ireland, in 1973:
"Béaloideas le Spailpín"
The article argues the derogatory use of spailpín arises from colonial English usage, and wage workers should see it as a noble term.
