I suspect Barneys first language isn't Russian

Some people would say English isn't either. When I was younger people use to ask where I came from, Devon was always my reply, "Oh you look Italian or Spanish" or anything but English. I cannot remember who it was although I think it may have been Ainsley Harriot who discovered on ' Who do you think you are' that one of his descendants was a white farmer. Cheered him up no end. In history lessons we all learned that the Vikings, Romans and the French all invaded Brittain, and with Brittain invading 90 percent of the world in the past. The chances of a thorough bred white English man existing anywhere on the planet I would think is a highly remote one.

I see he only follows 7 others
Must admit I seem to be purchasing more and more via internet, even with my merchant trade discounts they have difficulty in competing with online outlets. But it comes at a price, I may well be able to purchase a boiler for say

Being white and Brittish and living in London I am now a minority It's pleased the Daily Mail readers no end Personally I couldn't give a hoot as most of us already have some decendant from distant past that has come from some other part of the planet, my great grandfather was a russian migrant, served in the war in the RCAF as a navigator got a DFC for saving a plane from crashing so did his bit. Yesterday a customer rang said she only wanted me to work in her property as I was English, so I sent the Polish plumber who works for me cheered her up no end. Brits are a funny old bunch of people, absolutely hate anyone coming here, but are always happy to migrate themselves to warmer climates to get away from the influx of foreigners
I think Google should be boycotted, till they start paying their taxes in full, plenty of other search engines where I still rank highly like Yahoo and Bing
Let's bring the mighty Google down

Better still he could invest that
I don't think anything should happen to the DJ's, they just front the radio show, there is a host of production staff behind them that produce the show and these types of pranks have been going on for years Steve Penk has been doing these type of wind up calls for years, it works and it is entertainment. But even he does not do it on his own, the researchers and production team all play a part in producing that telephone call. I think the 2 DJ's are being used as scapegoats and until there is a full coroners hearing no one will know. It may well be that the hospital involved threatened her with disciplinary action for not following the correct protocol because they had a Royal onsite... Who knows, she would have been aware the following day that it was a prank, Prince Charles excepted it as a prank. So I think there is more to this than a couple of DJ's making a wind up call.
I think the Government of the day will always bail banks like HBOS and RBS out with tax payers money, as if they don't the consequences would be absolutely dire for millions of people. If they hadn't of bailed these banks millions of people would have lost homes and businesses and then we would have gone into a depression which we have seemed to have avoided. Because of the new finance regulations I don't believe that the banks would be able to get themselves into the same situation again. On the plus side RBS share price is gradually going back up, up around 30% this year so and if they keep on at this rate the taxpayer will soon be paid back and I'm also quids in

I do feel sorry for those people in the media spotlight caught up in the current 'He did this to me 30 plus years ago accusations' It does seem unfair and unjust to those who have been arrested. Mud sticks, so careers and reputations will be affected forever. Only those who are actually charged with an offence should be named rather than what seems to be happening at present, police informing the press before an arrest warrant is carried out on a celebrity and the media arriving at the accused home before the police have...
