Pickles in an [Ice-]pickle...oooh what to do!
Pickles has been invited by a micro Trot-sect to discuss some of the concerns that he and others raised with Daniel Randall at his University Labour Club in a set piece debate in mid/late April.
The meeting was going to be hosted by the Alliance for "Workers" Liberty - but they have now offered a neutral platform to debate the issues.
The title of the debate, which is yet to be set would be on the topic of marxism and the Labour Party. Whilst Pickles would love to go along and bring out some of the old 80s rhetoric he can't help but think that, in mid/late April there might be more pressing engagements...finals, actually winning the local elections ('Power without principle is barren, but principle without power is futile').
It was then or this coming Wednesday and Pickles wants to use all his energies making things difficult for Alan "Militant" Woods of Marxism.com when he comes to visit the Labour Club on Tuesday.
It seems Sven-Goran Engelsson who runs the club until next week is trying to go out with a bang. I'm sure we can provide him with one. I think I might try and get that redundancy notice my step-dad got back in '85, from a Labour council, (a Labour council!) and brandish it whilst questioning him.
Anyway - if anyone has any thoughts on where I might tell that ship of fools to stick their pseudo-scientific mumbo jumbo if I do accept their kind offer of a debate please do pass them on.

Didn't you play centre-forward for Everton a few years back?
Those where the days - when Everton used to score more than two goals a month.

I have both agreed to debate you and suggested some dates during which I would be happy to do so. I have finals at the moment Sacha - I think even you can understand that this means I'm likely to be busy.
This is the second time you've made some bizarre accusation of me being some kind of vicious rumour- monger - I'm sure you know me well enought to know that If I want to have a go at someone I'll do it to their face. God knows I've had a go at you often enough.
If you're trying to make some claim about me being involved in the defeat of your pet candidates in some election or other - get real. I've got finals and I think the people concerned are perfectly capable of looking after themselves.
