    Hmmm, curses!

    It is reminiscent of a Sherlock Holmes type thing or even that parody and comedy sketch with Val Kilmer(?) - Top Secret where the sight gag of Peter Cushing and the magnifying glass is a parody of a similar shot of Cushing from Terence Fisher's The Curse of Frankenstein (1957)?

    You're not Peter Cushing are you? If so, my Lord Darth Tyranus, I apologise...

    Nice to see Mr Bliar speaking out about religious extremists preaching in the UK - he's talking about deporting them apparantly......1984 here we come.. only yesterday another one was being invited in, at the tax payer's expense, to talk to Britain's muslin youth

    No Mailman, that was not "before last week".

    I'd go along with what you say about Kiwis, if you can assure me that none of them are members of this religious cult.

    Actually, we don't know who did last week's - it could have been a Kiwi.[/
    Kiwi's, unlike a certain religious cult, have no history of detonating themselves in crowded public places. Pitty the same cant be said for "said religious cult".

    I think they call the number and check.

    What can you expect in a nation where you don't need to carry ID with you and when you get a fine on the train you can just write down "a" name and "an" address (guess it changed now but a few years ago it was just like that).

    Oh, and I forgot, the only place in Europe where tourists from the rest of EU could come here and have a free holiday paid by the Government benefits.

    very good point wendigo100
    the only guys with a history of terrorism in London are Irish... and they can enter the UK freely.

    Mailman said --> "You might be able to remind us...but when was the last terrorist bombing in London that was carried out by a kiwi?"

    I thought the emphasis on this thread was immigration as a whole, so I mentioned the tax dodgers among us, no doubt terrorising the Inland Revenue.
    I wasn't suggesting Kiwis were into terrorist bombing.

    Shouldn't there be tighter controls on Tax dodgers from NZ? Unless they hate rugby of course.

    I wonder though...id the police are warning people not to carry out revenge attacks, why arent these guys warning imams and co not to preach hatred?
