Hoses of the Holy in the Parallel Universe

Bye Bye Blighty

I've been wondering about this sort of thing for a while (from the Guardian):
"No local people, a bunch of Breton nationalists seeking media attention for their cause, and a Brit dressed as a chicken staging a counter demonstration. 'Was the demo an aberration?' I ask him. 'That's a posh way of saying bullshit,' he says, before buffing himself another lager. 'I've seen more anger at Mothercare.'

What with all the furore being stirred up by desperate politicians about immigrants and asylum seekers in the UK, how long before the French, Spanish, Portugese, and Italians etc., start to really complain about the influx of Brits - especially those who don't make an effort to learn the language?

But I do like the idea of the counter-demonstration featuring the man dressed as a chicken. More people should do this. A chicken is suitable for most occasions, I think.
