It's the first anniversary of the day that soldier Lee Rigby was murdered in a broad daylight by the sort of scumbags that Nigel Farage doesn't want here.
Not forgetting this either:

agree cant believe its a year......... hope those 2 nutters never get of prison unless its in a wooden overcoat
I think they are the sort of scumbags nobody wants here.
Unfortunately, being Britsh born, raised (and radicalised) there's no party that has a credible way of ensuring these kind of people are 'not here'.
....and before anyone goes 'BNP!....(drool....burp....back to sleep)' I think their line is 'voluntary repatriation of anyone with a darker skin than Nick Griffin....oh and Jews...hang on though, where does that leave Aryan-looking Poles......look , anyone who isn't me, sucks!'

So we have to rely on parties committed to upholding good old British justice as it currently stands
good old British justice, before Jack Straw signed it away, would have been a well deserved death penalty.
Caught red-handed, no laywers, no trial, no appeals, just string the bastards up.

......................... and sell tickets to the event. So not only would we have ridden the world of two pieces of s**** we would also have helped the economy. How much is it costing to keep this pair alive?
To be frank (and Earnest,(mustn't leave him out)I was expecting them to feel the pain of home made blades before now!
Only a matter of time I think.

No wonder this country is a laughing stock of the entire world, as we just don'y get anything right!
In this instance we responded slowly, but the unprepared police just stood around hapless, until the firearm boys arrived
and then couldn't hit a barn door.
To be fair, they are probably sh!t scared of a disciplinary, if they cause a fatal!
No point issuing weapons if they have to be signed out every time, and authority being requested before they can be used!
Have to think back to our Olympic Games, where massive security was put in place, but somehow broadcast to the entire world,
of what measures were being taken.
Anti aircraft missiles on roofs being shown on tv. Then the revelation that they were only of use in good visibility.
That followed by the statement that they could only be locked onto at a distance of (can't recall without a big search) but it was close,
and then they had to wait for the approval of some obscure individual who was probably fast asleep!
It's a fact that, by the time this would have been approved, the aircraft would have been within the urban conurbation anyway.

Amazing isn't it Aunty?
Yet somehow all these immigrants want to come to this third-rate, pinko, banana-republic hell-hole and we pulled off the greatest Olympics in living memory.

Yes Roger, that was our proudest moment of recent glory and I for one reveled in it!
One thing we are certainly good at is ceremony, a good wedding, funeral, "The Queen's" whatever anniversary,
"trooping" (you can't beat a bit of that) but for every day stuff such as "border patrols" we are weak kneed and useless!
Have enjoyed watching some documentaries of just that and who are the most useless?
Well it isn't Australia or Canada so for the £1,000,000 prize, who is it?
It's the same country who let despots stay, for one more day, only to never be seen again!
It's the same country who let convicted murderers out on day release, even for a third time, when they absconded before!

i love welcoming foreigners to our great nation. always impressed with foreign students, 99.9% of them speak better english than most english people do. makes me very proud of our wonderful tolerant multi-cultural society! greatest nation on earth britain, even wales!
Pulled off the greatest Olympics in living memory you say roger..well having spent the best part of 9 million of tax payers hard earned thrown at the event it would have taking a balls up of gigantic proportions to have not .........."pulled it off".
the olympics were brilliant. jessica ennis. the somalian bloke. made me proud to be british!

Transport infrastructure worked exceptionally, we were - against all expectations - regarded as friendly, hospitable and welcoming and blow me down if even a few of our athletes didn't do well too.
....and we put on the greatest opening and closing shows ever.

NB - I'm not a 'my country right or wrong' type. You're sleeping on the job as far as I'm concerned if you're not pi$$ed off about something that stops us being the coolest nation in the world.
But we're not doing so bad, irrespective of which political mast you nail your colours to.

"Doo doo"??!!! It's DAH DAH.! 
...YOU wouldn't be allowed into the country. Fancy not knowing your National Anthem!

Boasting about your successes is rather un-British. Johnny Foreigner seemed generally satisfied with the Olympics, so quiet self-satisfaction would be the appropriate response imo.
But then, I'm only half-British, so what do I know? With a z in my surname, UKIP voters would have me sent back where I came from (Slough).

I agree that the opening ceremony was stunning(i have watched it many times over and it still gives me the shivers) but the closing ceremony was , in my opinion,a let down.As for the athletic part of the gig,it hasn't made a smidgeon of difference to folks participating in sports,something that Lord Coe banged on about leading up to the games. As for the Somalian born "brit" , now living in the USA to avoid paying taxes, well...i ask you!!.
Just for a second it made us feel good about ourselves.
That this stoic, reserved, rainy and generally cold and unfeeling nation, coughing our way to another day of 'you don't have to be mad to work here but it helps' in the hope of cheaper beer and overtime, could actually be outward looking, welcoming, warm and (steady....here it comes....!) vibrant for a few minutes.
Of course, it was asking the earth for this self-confidence and joy to extend to celebrating the fact that Mo Farah runs for Great Britain and we went ( and the majority still go) mental when he wins. Much more 'British' to be mealy-mouthed and critical.

The opening ceremony was a chaotic mess. Something vulgar and
charmless about the whole thimg.

British people are no longer stoic and reserved, if only they were.

Perhaps somebody should ask Lord Smugbastard of Coe why so many school sports fields have been closed down since the Olympics.
There was no money to rejuvenate the east end of London since the war finished. Suddenly it was all systems go and £billions poured in for two weeks of games. What did east Londoners gain out of it, apart from a stadium?
