I'm not disputing their attitude Baz and it truly does stink....what I am disputing is the TV programmer's like this that pick on a minute minority and spin it to high heaven and then we get mad xenophobic remarks, We have good and bad in every race race, I have a son in law that at the minute is making obscene amounts per week working in Egypt tax free...swing and roundabouts, I just don't think its fair tarring people with the same brush

We don't want to appear anal .....do we?
I don't think we're the anal ones, are we?
Anyways, they said they'll be back soon, so we all need to practice shuffling up to make room.
No touching other people's knees unlessbasked to do so.

I agree about the tarring Dame ...and the programme makers ....but , as with the Benefits Street series , the reality is the people included were actually as portrayed ....out of their own mouths
