Matthew Hooton calls Drinking Liberally ‘a trendy leftie clique’. Well, I’m not sure I would agree with mad Matt on the ‘clique’ bit, four chapters around the country with as many as a hundred people coming along to events seems a bit bigger than a clique, but it sure is getting trendy. The latest chapter is starting up in Christchurch and I hear there’s going to be a Dunedin DL too.
If you’re down in Christchurch, try to get along. It’s a good opportunity to meet some like minded people, have a drink, have a laugh, and talk politics. Oh, and there’s the Facebook group, which you can join up if you want to get an email letting you know about events.
What: Drinking Liberally – Christchurch
When: 6pm, 11 December
Where: Warner’s Pub, on the Square.
Who: Guest speaker EPMU National Secretary and probably next Labour President Andrew Little, and good jokers and jokeresses like yourself.
The server will be getting hardware changes this evening starting at 10pm NZDT.
The site will be off line for some hours.
Is Andrew Little going to speak at a Wellington one in the near future?
Bout time. Do I get extra credit if you clip my receipt?
At first I thought the title, “Drinking Liberally – Christchurch”, was a statement. Sure is a true one, don’t see people doing much else around here.
I was wondering why the bottle looked so red white and blue, then I realised it is US initiated group. I think the local version should be called “drinking radically” and have a brown bottle.
