I realise context is of no interest to people these days just as long as they get to scream 'RACISM!', but I thought I'd mention it.
Bøllocks, B. Here is the quote. It's about Commonwealth crowds cheering HMQ.

"It is said that the Queen has come to love the Commonwealth, partly because it supplies her with regular cheering crowds of flag-waving piccaninnies; and one can imagine that Blair, twice victor abroad but enmired at home, is similarly seduced by foreign politeness."

Again, B, stop making stuff up.

I don't have a dog in this fight. I hate them all. Basically, they should make me and my missus dictator cos everyone else is a cünt.
