[exiting britain] book your ticket

I need a pic so I'll pinch Sackers' one.


It ruins my whole plan for a Prejudice Saturday theme but one can't go past Sackerson when he waxes lyrical:

It'll be far worse for Britain, a country where the management has never quite lost that 1066 sense of being quite unconnected with the indigenous peasantry subjected to their cruel alien rule.

This is why our overlords find it so easy to flee the country to take their place in the new pan-European aristocracy currently under construction, an unlovely amalgam of big-business swindlers, venal politicians and their marketing men.

  1. Totally off topic but I love that pic....oh Britain where are you?

    I was born a thousand years too late.......

    I dream of a world of taverns smoky fires real ales and buxom bar maids with west country accents.....and that's in East Anglia.

    Sigh....

  3. PS: the picture is of a 6th century Welsh village - Llanbadarn Fawr, in Ceredigion:
