The racist bitch and her racist boss continue their "Little Englander" theme. WTF are they worried about? That we might learn something useful from people with different cultures and experience? Or did the useless pricks never listen to basic History lessons which lay it out pretty clearly that we Brits are a race made up from invaders, and the occasional tourist cruise, from all over the European Continent? Club 18-30 has been around a lot longer than we all realise (just ask your friendly neighbourhood Viking). How the hell else did a collection of islands on the edge of the Atlantic shelf on one side, the North Sea on the other and a relative puddle between here, France and the European Lowlands, darn sarf get populated in the first place?

The fact that we've tried to repel all boarders since Harold took one in the eye for the lads just down the road from Hastings is neither here nor there. We lost that one too. At least they didn't foist some strange foreign currency on us back then when we could still barter a pig for a few hens, a couple of hours bairn sitting while we went round the neighbours for a mead or two, a bag of spuds, as many sprouts as we could handle and a few lumps of wood to throw on the fire. Oh, hang on a minute, no calm down, we'd been using the £ for while before then.
