and it says - wait for it! the term and I quote, ‘The idea of “British” implies a false sense of unity – many Scots, Welsh and Irish resist being called British and the land denoted by the term contains a wide variety of cultures, languages and religions.’
For a foreigner to remain in the United Kingdom, opps! sorry Mr. Ron Davies – who lost his Cabinet job in 1998 after what he described as a ‘moment of madness’, when he was robbed after meeting a man on Clapham Common, a well-known gay haunt is the man behind the advice, I guess we can not use United Kingdom either! But to continue, a foreigner who wants to stay permanently he or she must past a "Britishness" exam so I guess the government will have to make up a new name for that exam!
Looks like I am going to have to say it again, the lunatics are still running the asylum!
Some pictures of Diana and Myself, where we now live and places around us, things that we find interesting, amusing or just plain weird!
