    I'm sure some of those right-wing xenophobic expats who live in Spain will probably be begging Britain to bail them out when they go under. The hypocrisy of it all like.

    And in the fifties they had to do National Service, which some of the old boys said it was very nice of the government to remind them to go home and see their mother for a while

    One of my old relatives got himself into the RAF on that one, and had a photo taken of himself with some sergeant stripes that he borrowed. He sent the photo to his mother to show how well he'd done for himself. He's 80 odd now, and still deluded.

    The Daily Mail is a right wing facist newspaper. They hate EVERYONE who doesnt come from England.
    They specialise in inflamatory headlines and try their best to get people outraged.
    In general though English people are very fond of the Irish, much more than we are of them !

    One old guy told me that his English landlady sent word to him at work that they called to the house, so he collected his wages and went straight home at the end of his shift and came back a couple of weeks later, land lady kept the room for him

    But surely she had a "No Blacks, No Dogs, No Irish" sign in her window?;)

    Like it or not, our two islands are bound by blood, geography and history. We're more similar to eachother than any other nation on earth. Most people here have English or Scottish family members.

    but a lot DM readers don't seem to know there's a common travel agreement between the two or am I wrong on that?

    A lot of daily mail readers wouldn't know their sphincter from a hole in the ground, to be honest.
