They needed a little Red Book containing the thoughts of the Chairman. Since he's been shown to have had feet of clay they must be red faced now.

For a second I thought this was about the loud types in the deli who yell "A BLT, but hold the mao."

Maoist activists are followers of the thoughts and beliefs of the late Chairman Mao.

From the guardian...A manifesto from the group, reproduced on the internet, described it as "a workers' centre, library and bookshop", adding: "Thousands of people, in particular the poorer working people in the area, began to visit and use the centre. Already two years before the centre was established our comrades had begun to boldly arouse the people of Brixton with the proletarian revolutionary line of beloved Chairman Mao."

The group's beliefs were regularly mocked in the diary column of the Times newspaper, bringing speculation that it became the part-model for the Tooting Popular Front, the ludicrous political movement set up by Robert Lindsay in Citizen Smith, a BBC sitcom that began broadcasting in 1977.
