Is this a Tory free zone?

[SpookyFrank]

Yes. You went to one "by mistake". That must be it. Yes.

They'd disguised it to look like something potentially interesting, and I was young and foolish enough to fall for it.

Now I know of course. You don't go to any 'public meeting' at the YMCA community centre, because it's always a swappie trap. Whatever the issue at hand, the solution always turns out to be, 'surrender your will to the SWP and this time next year we'll all be living in socialist utopia!'

The christians use the exact same trick of course. We'll help you find a new direction in life. Any direction you like, so long as it's in the direction of a dead hippie wizard and his inexplicable need for lots of cash.

at least SP hold em in pubs

I once went to a Belfast SP (note, not SWP!) meeting on Palestine.

Some Israeli backpackers turned up to join in the fun.

I was picking bits of fragmentation grenade out of my arse for weeks afterwards.

IIRC, the Israeli kids response was that the SP analysis was basically correct, except that they had overlooked the fact that there was no hope of any change for the better.

Sas used to be one I think.

'Used' being the operative word. Was for damn near 50 years. Until this shower of shit came along. Now not apolitical, but non-aligned.
