Did you guys secretly take over Tottenham
Tbf it's Man Utd my Bucharest father in law supports here, which obviously fails the test somewhat

I do seriously think that one thing that has probably encouraged migration to the UK too is that relative to France or Germany we've been a relatively high employment society for most of the twentieth century. So yes government policy might help there.
Might run for office on a platform of making the official language Urdu to reduce immigration as a bit
You can tell London is a global city because you can get in a taxi in Bucharest and say you're from England and the driver will start telling you his opinions on ULEZ
i heard they've been sending each other Stephen Bush's tweets
A policy so dumb that Yvette Cooper can see the issue
Yes, totally unlike before
Who told you about my evening plans
Ahh yes, I see and what does an archer shoot.
No it's completely different because Labour want to introduce breakfast clubs
Also British planes should be overhead underground missile silos when they're about to fire as that's when they become vulnerable to attack, like a boss fight
Also just pointing at the Labour meltdown in general I suspect. The Tory view on their situation seems to be it's fine because Labour are unpopular. Truly the two party system is still very much there in the heart of Tory MPs
I hear you're a misandrist now Sharon
And that's just one of the many reasons
Everytime Trump does this I just imagine Carney's approval ticking up another couple of points.
Hey it might be a South Asian carp and merely stuck in traffic.
Keir Starmer would be a much better PM if he had a multicoloured tie that called him "bratan" and gave him advice on building small bombs from high proof alcohol
Also then, what did she mean when she criticised the government's stance. What meaningful differences does she have with their stance
As far as I can tell Umbrella is a fictional company who's business model can be summarised as:
1. Do ludicrously evil things
2.???
3. Profit
Well and obviously copied from the old world is the other big one. Name an English town and there's probably an American city with the same name.
Yeah and of course some names are just lost to the ages. We know London was Londinium to the Romans but we don't know how they got to that. Manchester on the other hand comes from the Latin for 'castle on the breast hill' because the Romans thought a local hill looked like a woman's breast.
In fairness at least European cities historically had really simple names too, its just changes in language meant the origins were lost. Berlin, for instance, just means 'swamp' in an old Slavic language.
The important thing to know about RE is it is possibly one of the dumbest franchises ever made and most of the time that comes across as broadly knowingly dumb.
Most Russian guy
The thing I find most amusing and telling about Medvedev is that when he was President he was supposed to be the one that liberals and democrats were more drawn to
Yeah, he's English
