After the successes of the Guy Fawkes Dinner in 1998 and the May Day Thames Cruise, Dockyard Ward Labour Party are holding another Guy Fawkes Dinner. As before we will be holding it in the Mayflower pub, where it is said that the ship of the same name set sail some 15 years after the Gunpowder Plot to pick up other religious (a) dissidents, (b) freethinkers, (c) progressives, (d) conservatives, (e) sectarians we were well rid of [Delete as applicable] before crossing to Massachusetts. So the 5th of November is a date (f) to celebrate the supression of a plot to undermine the legal government of England, (g) to remember the revolutionary exploits of a small band of brethren, (h) simply to have a good time [Ditto], and you can spend it in good company with us.
