No, as you are a guest in my country, living off income support through my taxes, and getting preferential treatment over deserving British swamp donkeys who are literally wobbling towards the queue for 'social housing', I feel you OWE us something AtW....

Your holiday is not an issue, The issue here is whether you cah $%£k 72 virgins in a short period of time, can you do it or not?
