[News] John Cleese criticised.......

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Like if you went to australia, and when you got there it was all McDonalds, Starbucks and Apple shops i'd think you'd be a tad disappointed and think similar thoughts because you went there to experience the native people's culture.

Works both ways tho. Not been a big fan of Aussie theme bar Walkabout in Brighton ever since I nicked a boomerang from there and got thrown out 23 times.



And yes, yes I will be disappointed with that effort

 

[Eeyore]

Does it matter what he thinks ?

London, like most of the major cities on the planet, is international in populous. It's normal.

Maybe he needs a Hungarian phrase book.

 

[Hillian1]

Probably best not to talk about the Major and his trip to see India

On the Sub Continent?

 

[Titanic]

On the Sub Continent?

No... at The Oval.

TBH if i were Khan id take it as a compliment.

very much this. dont know if there's some context im missing, but the tweet i read is fair enough. we always say how multicultural London is, such a metling pot, so many communities. therefore not very English is it? cant be both.

 

[Hillian1]

No... at The Oval.

He must have been keen on her.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

True.
Before the Romans arrived ( what did they ever do for us? ) and introduced a modicum of culture, we were a bunch of thick, xenophobic, racist savages.

Except that's a load of shit.

I don't mind foreigners here, I have many foreigners in my family both here and abroad, but London doesn't feel very English to me. Alfriston, York, etc, they feel pretty English. London doesn't.

London is totally different to any other part of the country.
School children speak over 300 different languages at home. Most ethnic groups have a higher representation in London than anywhere else. 44.9% of the London population is White British. 37% were born outside the UK and 24.5% outside Europe ( Census 2011 )
The Census did not include a group that is a mixture of White British and Ethnic and was only discovered in recent years in certain areas of ' leafy London '.... ' Criminables ' ( Chiswick, Richmond Islington Middle-Income Anti-Brexit Liberal Elite Snowflakes )

Wonder whether anyone on Nevis thinks his arrival has made it less like Nevis? And whether he cares about that?

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Outrageous.

Lol.

I should know!..... I'm descended from them.....It runs in the family. No Roman, Anglo Saxon, Danish, French or German in me. Just pure Ancient Tribe. We were here first before you Johnny Rotten Foreigners started coming over, raping and pillaging the men, chasing the women and diluting the blood.

If it stops him from making anymore of that awful sit com ‘Hold the sunset’ it will be worth it.

This. How the mighty have fallen.

 

[Pickles]

John Cleese....

He's all out of Waldorfs.

 

[Wrong-Direction]

I hate going to London, it's a ****ing dive

Now that is a clever bunch of kids. Must get a bit confusing sometimes for the parents.

I’d expand this to the world. It’s a genuine A list and unique city.

 

[Chicken Run]

London is full of wankers.

Edit: And to many of them have emigrated down here!

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

I presume the Romans never made it to Stoke?
