I think if someone turns up in 'working man's clothes' they would more likely be greeted with divine reverence than asked to leave

 

[Firky]

You can always tell a good sarnie shop by the amount of work men queuing up outside of it.

 

[killer b]

pie shops are like that round here. but replace the workmen with little old ladies.

edit: just looked for my favourite pie shop on streetview, no old ladies. still a queue though.

My local pie eatery has no queue but it does get them.

A wave of tramps requesting cups of tea and buns may test the philanthropic impulses of the latte leninists.

theres a little sandwich hut on a square west of regents street where cabbies flock and queue up - had a sandwich there once - shittest white bread, loads of marge, and a hunk of cheese in the middle fatter than the bread. cabbies eh.

 

[past caring]

Petit bourgeois loud-mouths. Fuck 'em.

[discokermit]

from youtube, so probably not at all reliable. i don't think john rees chased disco out of the shop either fwiw.

i must admit, i have never been in their shop.

 

[discokermit]

Incidentally what has Discokermit achieved?

loads.

Rees and co. Are skilled in rejecting the sin of 'workerism' ( in the swp, workerism was the habit of middle class student branches to treat any actual workers with reverance, which the party seriously disapproved of. In practise, this meant that every class prejudice and expression of intellectual distain for the working class was indulged, whilst actual wc members were treated with, at best, condescension, if not contempt. No matter how many years of membership in the party one might have, an industrial worker would still be introduced as a'trades union militant') the Firebox staff will have no ideological qualms at ridding out any horny handed proletarian with dirty boots.

they also do far more pork & crackling in white bread than anyone can sensibly or practically eat. cheap though.

Can you skate outside? If so we could all hang out after the demo on the 20th if youth are allowed in? btw is there wi-fi?

If I can't skate...

 

[past caring]

I have realised - thanks to the g/f - that this is just round the corner from my new work. I usually go to Mario's round the corner in Hastings St for my dinner, but I may have to give this a go next week.

 

[Libertad]

If I can't skate...

Thank you Emma.

...with a bitchy little comment.

well done John, I always knew you would make a good waiter, shame you were a crap revolutionary.

I'd like to think his dad would have done better.

The sad truth is that all the Social Workers, including DG (assuming he was still involved at the time), went along with the Rees-German strategy of abject Islamo-Trottery and then turned on Rees-German when it all went sour with GG and Salmonella. They were all 'crap revolutionaries'.

 

[butchersapron]

As what, a waiter or a revolutionary? And DG has had nothing to do with this countrys stuff for what, two decades now?

And yet how long was he on their CC??

Also, you are a prick.
