Default End of the world in 2012 according to some barmy Dutch people.

Petra Faile [a lovely and well-educated Dutch lady] and her husband have bought a life raft and other survival equipment in preparation for Armageddon. "They keep letting people in. And then we have to build more houses, which makes the Netherlands even heavier. The country will sink even lower, which will make the flooding worse."

The best/worst anti-immigrant excuse ever?

They could always let in the skinny ones, say from the hungry parts of Africa, and keep out the heavy American and Canadian tourists.

They can't afford to - NZ is nearly falling off the bottom of the world as it is. Any more fat people and it'll slide down to Antarctica.

They should get rid of the birds. Have you seen how fat those kiwis are???
They could also scrap the rugby team, big lads they are and then we English may stand a chance of winning again (we import the all blacks and naturalise them)
