Political magazine, c.1976 to 1982, involved in a well-recorded contempt of court case in 1979. Collectively produced by a shifting coalition of radicals, socialists, marxists, feminists, and others of the British left and progressive movements. A statement frequently appearing in the magazine, which for most of its life appeared monthly, described it as "An independent monthly socialist magazine produced by the Leveller Collective. Owned by its Supporting Subscribers through the Leveller Magazine Ltd, a society whose AGM controls the magazine." Members, who met for collective meetings in the Kings Cross area of north London, included: Roger Andersen, Nick Anning, Julia Bard, Imogen Bloor, Dave Clark, Andy Curry, Brian_Deer, Tim Gopsill, Cheryl Hicks, Terry Ilott, Phil Kelly, Mike Prest, Rose Shapiro, Russell Southwood, Dave Taylor, Adam Thompson, John Verner, Ian Walker. Steve Bell, the cartoonist, was a contributor. A report on an annual general meeting of July 21 1979, published in the September issue of that year, stated: "Differences within the collective - for which we had hoped to look to the meeting for answers - remained unresolved. The basic difference is over the impact that writing personally about politics should have on the news, political analysis, and so on, that we print. The collective is still discussing it." Cover stories included: *No 19 (October 1978): The Music Biz - Rock and Sexuality. *No 22 (January 1979): Gays Coming Out. *No 23 (February 1979): The Family - A Pack of Lives. *No 24 (March 1979) Crifif, Crifif, Whar fuckin' Crifif (economy). *No 29 (August 1979) Spoil Sports...
