    The London poor are going to go to Hull to pick cabbages? Good luck with that.

    He's a ****ing mong mate, he bigs up the UK (5th biggest economy in the World dontchakno), claims there's no real poverty in the UK but thinks the kids born here should go pick fruit for £2.80ph.

    All this because he doesn't like immigrants living in the same country as him.

    Kids up chimneys? In the 50's? Where the **** did you live? :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Most kids not that many years ago used to do all sorts, including washing cars and picking fruit to make a couple of quid for records, clothes etc and be independent. Hell, even you must have heard of paperboys, now that was a mugs task in comparison.

    The bank of mam and dad hadn't opened back then, and kids still had the opportunity to learn the value of money, and what it takes to earn it, rather than sponging off parents and moaning about being bored.

    You are absolutely spot on with your summation.

    Londoners and cabbages seem a decent match to me. As long as they don't eat them. I could be wrong but I think cannibalism is illegal.

    From Hell, Hull and Halifax, May the Good Lord deliver us.

    Though I’ve never really understood that line, because Halifax is very picturesque.

    Aye OK working class hero, you get your offspring out to the fields and I'll let mine live a 21st century life.

    And you're way off if you think there's a bank of mum and dad where I'm from.

    Why not want things to be better for people than worse?

    They were chosen due to their strict methods of controlling crime. The next line makes reference to “Hull cheese … the mightiest ale in England.” <ok>

    To be honest there are good and bad aspects to everywhere. Nowhere is idyllic, probably just as well as we'd all live in the same place!!

    You don't half have an odd set of comprehension skills if you think knowing the value of money and independence is somehow worse than sitting in front of a screen that magically appeared, getting obese and whining about being bored. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Neither of my kids are constantly in front of screens or obese. There is a bit of nuance between being a fat cabbage in front of a screen all day and picking fruit all day.

    If EUROPEAN UNION migrants have children that go to school they can claim benefits most gypsies get their weird looking women knocked up as soon as they arrive or bring them pre knocked up.

    The seasonal fruit picking work was usually done by housewives or teenagers .

    You voted brexit ,?

    You voted against freedom of movement?

    That's it's ...no other reason,!

    Prove me wrong !

    Give me a benefit that you'll actually benefit from by removing the UK from EU

    Nothing?

    You have nothing ?

    Guess what ...

    Britain can be about British again mate. Why is that so hard to understand.

    You're probably the kind of guy who doesn't well up any time The Red Arrows do a fly over.

    If you don't like it you should move to Argentina.
