The Welsh are even worse  noooo: noooo:

We have the 'Cornish National Liberation Army' (also known as inbred gormless fuckwits) down here. In a previous incarnation (An Gof) they burned down a hairdressers in Penzance years ago. What their  statement afterwards didn't mention was that they had meant to torch a branch of the Nationwide next door and that the hair salon have been owned and run by someone born in Cornwall.  noooo:

I suspect in the case of at least some of the members the relationship is far closer than cousins...  noooo:

If the members of the art committee want to fork out 12 grand for a portrait of the Lords speaker then they pay for it out of their own bleedin' pockets.  cussing:

I suppose it kept the artist off the dole for a while but why do all these leeches need paintings of themselves anyway?

I'm sorry but you can fuck right off! With the NHS in the state it's in at the moment you want fifty grand to fix the nose that was infected by a flesh eating bug after your 42nd cosmetic procedure? How much essential medication would that money pay for? Call me a heartless bastard but you've been able to pay for the previous procedures so you can fork out for this one yourself.  cussing:
