Rees's Pieces

Have you ever been wandering around Soho, and just found yourself utterly frustrated with the lack of cafes and coffee shops? Well, don't worry. The glorious leader has taken time out of his busy schedule of debating the extra-marital affairs of racist footballers to focus on the overwhelming priority for the class struggle in Britain - the new Counterfire Cafe!

You'll be pleased to learn that this venture "will be at the heart of a new left" (until now, of course, my main concern was where the heart of the new left would be)and that it's menu will "be a showcase for all that is best on the left". Whether there is more on the menu than just nine hams, remains to be seen.

But they need your help. They want suggestions for a name for the venue. A few of us have come up with some ideas:

Tsarbucks
The Reestro
Sectway
Moccachinos of a Special Type
Left-Out
Gramsci's
John's Scones
Muteany
Muttony
Amuse Douche
Stratatea and TicTacs
The Totali-Tea
Hungry Hungry Hypocrites
Caffè Nero
Caesar's Palace
A Delicious Strawberry Defection
Hedge Money
The Cream-lin
A German Pie Geology
Munchie-viks
The Coalition of Restaurants
Pret-a-Menshevism
The Left Plate-form
John's Grease
Nineham-dos
What is to be Bun?
Lunching Marxism
Gerry Healy's Bastard Post Gaddafi Gold Coffee Feel Good Make Glorious Love in of a Special Type

Intriguingly, the post is signed "Counterfire and friends". Presumably these new friends have pretty deep pockets - rents in that part of the world ain't cheap.
