I remember him telling people to get on their bikes. After that **** I never bothered listening again.

Not well informed and aware of things then.
I cannot imagine Tebbit could well inform anybody.
We hadn't better stray into politics, Ben.
But basically you are agreeing with what he said about sporting loyalties.
It wasn’t just sporting loyalties. It’s about giving up your whole birthright by pledging allegiance to another country.
I wouldn’t expect Bangladeshi or Indian decent to support England because they were born here which is what Tebbitt said isn’t it? You can move to another country without giving up your own. If you’re asked to you should come home.
So you did know what he said.

They always support their country of birth.
A friend of my family moved to Burgundy a few years ago, and has humiliated himself by insisting the locals refer to him as an 'Anglo-Frenchman' instead of an Englishman, because he considers his new passport and love of red wine to be sufficient proof that he is as French as Clement Le Pompouscunt and whoever else he now has for neighbours.
needs guillotined for that
Guillotine?
You mean the Halifax Gibbet, surely?
