Having just got back from London I can tell you its dangerous out there, people roaming the streets with pitchforks, muttering about death and destruction, and threatening to garotte the natives with bits of cheese wire.
Nasty place........

Good point.

I just find it funny, that anything that was printed in the Daily Mail, has to be considered dubious. You would think nobody in the UK ever read it. The article mentioned was reporting comments from David Blunkett and it wasn't something the Mail was just making up...

Would it get a different reaction if it came from the BBC?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-24909979

Its also reported in The Telegraph, The Express, The Huffy Post, The Star, The Mirror, The Standard and just about every newspaper in the UK... apart from The Guardian of course.

Usually nob heads downgrade a news source to try make themselves look big even though most news companies share the same news stories. Most sensible people read many news sources to get a more rounded view.

That's beyond comprehension for the tut tut brigade

Sharp-toothed Corgis, Badger-faced sheep... and now Brasov Beavers biting at the borders.

Sounds scary.
