From Ian Taylor,

The Cambridge University Labour Club, replete though it is with budding future Ray Gunter's and others 'impressed with the ability of the Labour Government to govern," has come out for socialist measures in most of the resolutions passed since the beginning of term, The immigration White Paper was decisively condemmed at the 300 strong opening meeting, At a policy nakiniiy° oh Sundey, October 31st. , a motion was overwhelmingly carried, demanding that troops be sent to Rhodesia to enforce progress towards majority rule. The continuation of neo colonialist measures in Aden by ex-M.C.F.er Tony Greenwood was also condemned.

The signs are that even those who talk in terms of full support for the Labour Party in Government, regardless of the direction of its policies are being forced by left wing pressure into a more critical position, The heightening of consciousness among the potential parliamentary candidates bodes well for the future of the left wing in this most reactionary of universities.
