    Failing Britain...

    For (just this) once I'm with the Daily Mail...


    I'm disgusted at the new feral British work-shy underclass, addicted to their sofa's, booze & benefits; being hugely embarrassed by honest, hard working immigrants?


    It's high time the MCC changed its selection policy before the next Ashes tour :p

    As the previous poster stated your topic would be well suited to the Bear Pit.
    I don't think anybody has an issue with immigrants that are honest and hard working.
    It is true the benefits system has bred a sub-working class that appear to contribute to little apart from the crime statistics and the budget deficit.
    But how do you address that ? You cannot let children starve.
    Pretty sure this is a pop at the English Cricket team... like to see their crime statistics though.

    Whoosh indeed. If you have to explain it then its not funny.

    Its just a shame that people did not read it - or were to stupid the understand the MCC reference. Doh!!

    Actually I thought it was quite funny, before I realized KP and Totters are both immigrants and then it failed to make sense. By then that's the danger of over thinking a JOKE!!

    I know that Christmas is over, but why some many sense of humor failures???

    Whoever does not know how to hit the nail on the head should be asked not to hit it at all.
