I went to Trago Mills; and all I got was a garden pond kit, a set of allen keys, a tube of tennis balls, a self-help book, four boxes of Lego Technic, a wetsuit, two mattresses, a multi-pack of socks, a 12-pack of Quavers, three scented candles ...and this t-shirt.

@@katierandall9191 I’m still hearing, “Justine, you seem to have cut through the many levels of this story.” I switched son the subtitles to hear what he said and hence “Justine”. Although, earlier it mentioned David Cameron not getting cell reception on holiday in Cornwall and it substituted “Kabul” for Cornwall.

Remember that US has just 10 days vacation (usually) while UK (EU) may have many more. How do you think Obama would know when people are on vacation? And I fully agree, you shouldn't call people when they are on vacation but you should call the office and get redirected to the stand-in! :-P

I get that this is comedy, but in case anyone took his point seriously: Immigrants come here because its a rich country with plenty of services, and high wages compared to the places they came from. Historically, it has also been because (despite what our tendency towards self-deprecation makes us say) we have a good culture which others actually admire, and many wanted to be a part of it.

In this case for instance, just quietly reminding everybody who the Good People and the Bad People are. The best propaganda works this way, it's very effective. That's why the middle class took over comedy in the early 80s. They knew how to use it for much more than just telling jokes.

Why immigrants come to UK, Sweden, Germany? Because they know there is a lot of money and benefits to be given with very little effort, compared to many other nations.

Cold weather and football? Nothing to do with us being a soft touch and immigrants getting benefits and free hotel accommodation - whilst our homeless are left to rot...

@@gthbtn Have you ever considered becoming an author? Maybe then you could do some good with your fiction, instead of spreading hate. Although you might want to work on making your stories more realistic in future. My family’s in the hotel business. No owner of a 4 star hotel is going to take an immigrant contract. Not because they think there’s anything wrong with them but because the council wouldn’t pay them even remotely what the rooms are worth. If you’re on the star system, you don’t have any shortage of bookings so why would you give your rooms away for less than their value? And secondly, no council worker is stupid enough to open themselves up to a discrimination lawsuit by claiming that they won’t help you unless you don’t speak English. And I’ve met some pretty damn stupid ones over the years. Nationality is a protected class. If they don’t want to help you, they give you some bullshit reason that doesn’t open them up to legal action. They’ve got no desire to lose their job and be on the other side of the desk so they’d never claim anything like that. Try to find something better to do with your time, instead of making the lives of people who have even less than you worse. Go after the actual villains, the rich and powerful who make the laws. They want you to hate other poor people rather than them. Don’t make their lives any easier than they already are.

@@gthbtn I’m not doubting block bookings happen. But they don’t happen in 4 star hotels, they happen in run down, no star hostels. The owners of a 4 star hotel would never allow the rooms to go for the rates the council would pay when they could make much more than that on the open market. It would be nice if they did but it’s a business, not a charity. And no, I don’t believe you as you’ve already proved you’re either lying or very badly misinformed over the hotel situation. Again, whether they thought you could sue them or not, they’d make up an excuse that wouldn’t open them up to legal action. For all they know, you could get legal aid (v difficult, I know, I’ve tried it) or go to the local press and stir up trouble for them. Why open themselves up to that kind of risk when they have a whole laundry list of bs lies they could choose from? (I’m not much of a fan of local councils either)
