How to chat up a Cheeky Girl
Like Tom Watson I particularly enjoyed these top ten Trotskyist chat up lines:
(10) You mean you share my critique of Mandel's interpretation of Kondratiev's long wave theory? Wow, we have so much in common!
(9) Let’s get out of here. I know a much cozier little Marxist bookstore downtown.
(8) I bet I can guess your party cadre name.
(7) Sorry, but I just wanted to tell you how stunning you look in that secondhand donkey jacket while carrying a bundle of Socialist Workers under your arm ...
(6) I used to read Trotsky ... but then I drifted.
(5) Is that the Transitional Programme in your pocket, or are you just pleased to see me?
(4) That secondhand donkey jacket of yours would look great on my bedroom floor.
(3) What's a nice girl like you doing in a lousy union fraction like this?
(2) Do you sell papers here often?
(1) So, babe ... just how degenerate would your ideal workers' state be?
I am told that the immortal line: 'Don't suppose there's any chance of seizing control of your means of production, love?' works particularly well when used by an MP.
Update: According to this article in the South Wales Echo, Lembit and Gabriela's first date was at a science museum. They also talked a lot about astronomy.
