Eton Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 The Underground is your friend, it's the best system in the world! Pubs everywhere, so enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 The London Underground is not a political movement If you're ever near Euston or Kings Cross station (you can walk between each in about 15 minutes) halfway between them, is a pub called The Rocket. Cheap drinks and awesome food, I highly recommend it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Queen plays in the English cricket team? Is she a hitter or a ball thrower? Being Scottish I don't follow this somewhat arcane sport.......

Brightight Posted May 22, 2010 Report Share Posted May 22, 2010 Yes. Move to Manchester. That depends what footie team you want to support. Man Utd - stay in London with all the other fans. Man City - move to Manchester indeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brightight Posted May 22, 2010 Report Share Posted May 22, 2010 No, although she'd probably be a good recruit.!! I'm told by my mate, who is English and a cricket fan, that the current way to deal with uppity Australians is to mention the World 2020.

chiefwiggum Posted May 22, 2010 Report Share Posted May 22, 2010 Any suggestions for visitors? These seem to work for just about every other "visitor", so why not try your luck as well; Go to the Council and ask for a Council House Go to the Benefits Agency and ask for full benefits for you, your wife, kids, mother, father, grandparents', auntie, uncles, cousins, brothers, sisters etc etc Get some free healthcare Get some free education Get a job in a bar/ restaurant Only adhere to your own religions and customs Feel free to spit on our flag Claim for persecution Don't insure your car Claim asylum But most of all do not admit to or even allude to being British in Britain because you will only be treated as a second class citizen Not a complete list of suggestions but maybe enough to get you started.

Ooh burn. Don't forget to start whinging about how loud the birds are/ how the kids are crap these days/ about how you gave the world everything and should be winning at sport and to become covertly racist while pretending to be passionate for equal rights for everyone - including the noisy birds and the trees they live in.

Anguz Posted May 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 Wow, i was asking for friendly advice and it became all this! I am a British citizen from Canada btw, my parents were born and married in Scotland which makes me a citizen...but I also do not fault people who come to Britain from far less off countries trying to better themselves either. That's one of the cool things about the UK, they are compassionate and try to help. PS, I am looking for a job and would work in a pub or anywhere else to get started...any offers? lol And luckily my religion is the major religion of the UK chiefwiggum, I'm a Jedi! ...OK, I'm not...I'm an agnostic, you got me...

That's one of the cool things about the UK, they are compassionate and try to help. Sadly, weak governments have allowed that compassion to be exploited by many economic migrants who only came to the UK to better their wallets, not to contribute to the community, which is a shame, especially when countries like Australia, are much stricter on migration Oh well PS, I am looking for a job and would work in a pub or anywhere else to get started...any offers? lol You might want to try looking on a website called The Gumtree And luckily my religion is the major religion of the UK chiefwiggum, I'm a Jedi! I'm sure I read somewhere that there are more Jedi than Jews in the UK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
