Notes from a wet Iceland

NOTES OF ICELAND a damp cloth

  

  

I probably should have me in shock after a period of 31 years left. You see, my parents are politically incorrect things and moved to South Africa in the turbulent 1976, was influenced by the age of eight years. Apart from three or four holidays in England in the thirty-one, I spent most of my time in South Africa. While I entertained a kind of cabinet is English, I stayed in a South African.

So why do I have to return to England in 2008? Geographical refuge was in the psychological sense? The fear of reduced employment prospects in South Africa? In search of pastures new (in a terrible cliché) and it was to rediscover my English? I think it was, to some extent, the second. I was born in northern England, to be exact, Wigan and Wigan came back, much to the chagrin of my friends who have included South Africa, or know someone who has settled in the south of England, London, or to be precise, and consider that Lancashire to be a haven or economic wasteland, similar to the least healthy in South Africa. I received nearly a feeling that until established North was by no means offensive or inappropriate. But I like the north and that is another essay for another day.

I rediscovered my being English? No, really, or maybe not. Still I'm trying to figure out what it means to be English.

I was in the country within days, if I mentioned this policy with my cousin. Without hesitation, explained that in the next election, he would probably vote BNP because they are the only party, he would have the confidence to release the country of all foreigners. At that time I did not know much about the BNP, except that they are very right and probably a neo-Nazi organization, similar to the old National Front. Later I discovered that the BNP is a link to both the National Front and a number of neo-Nazi parties, but strives for an image the center of the road and seems to work. I have found since then many people who appear to the BNP as a viable alternative to Labour, Conservatives and the opinion of Lib Dems, and it is very, very disturbing. In fact, my beloved Everton to one of their games to spend a Saturday, Sunday, as police will be occupied by a march through BNP insurance Liverpool on Saturday. I have a testimony of the ultra-right nationalist politics. Growing up in apartheid South Africa meant that you were never far away. In the city lived in the Conservative Party (who believed that the ruling nationalist right to the left of center) have been the controlling party were our tips remember, For example, fishing in a resort on the banks of the Vaal River and the Police were called to eliminate violence, part of Asia, that whites could only enjoy the facilities – is what my cousin and the UK want? The BNP appears in the current economic climate is to be flourishing – echoes of Germany in 1920, perhaps?

Xenophobia is very real and very widespread, especially among the working class. Although no one was rude to me I have the impression that I am different and not some "of them." Fortunately, most people think, because of my accent that I need an Australian or New Zealand. I say fortunately, because the English seem to have special preference by their cousins in Australasia. To some extent, my wife was born and raised in South Africa is regarded as a kind of curiosity – after all, why someone leaves sun-drenched plains of Africa to move the Lancashire working class? However, it has come to love the north country, and that she, but in my opinion, raises the question of BNP members as possible their desire to be deported along with the Albanians of Poland, and Somalis – British jobs British workers, and all that?

British television is beyond me. Once known for its cutting edge displays and programs, comedies and Channel Four has unique features, now deteriorated into a jumble of unpleasant reality shows television talent competitions claims car insurance and advertising, personal tragedy shows selling air fresheners and anthropomorphic animals. And no, I do not share taste Britain for Ant and Dec, Strictly Come Dancing, and Alan Titchmarsh. Does this make me any less English? If I am on a Monday morning, I hear people complain about the fact that such-and-so from had voted, as he deserves no – that made me start watching the work of the reality shows, just to understand what my colleagues were talking about. It's about fitting in. I think the government does not brochures should be translated to waste time immigrants in the traditions and values of English in order to contribute to the integration, but let them watch TV and notes Guidance on the importance of certain programs as the British public. That, and encourage binge drinking!

As an alcoholic recovery, I am sensitive to how much you can drink English. Many of my colleagues to measure the success of a party or a pub night of the large amount of alcohol consumed. Now wants the government to increase prices for alcohol, so that a drive of less than 50 pence, in an effort to curb the sale of alcohol is cheap. This country was always vulnerable to alcohol consumption? I know that Russia is a serious problem with alcoholism in recent years has had, but England? My mind eight years age points to nip at people outside the bar a couple of times after tea or a drink in the pub social man working in conditions of a Saturday night. Now is the Alco-Pops, the mind and the refrigerator liter of vodka Starting the weekend. The good news is that the welfare state, a security can stay at home drinking cheap cider, conflicts with his wife and Ant and December funny pranks on TV. Do not get me wrong, I am not criticizing the concept of the welfare state – is a wonderful socialist idea is just that there is great capacity for abuse. because mental health is widespread and lures disability benefits Disability. The Government distributes out up to £ 60000000000 per year on incapacity benefits – this is the plan to rescue the bank a few times a year! due to stress and depression makes the job a good part of this figure and the Confederation of British Industry estimates that the problem of free time due to depression, anxiety and stress loss equivalent to approximately £ 4000000000 per annum. There was a correlation between alcohol abuse and depression, stress and anxiety? Such time.

The ability of English to moans, of course, is a legend. Not a day passes in which I hear complaining about immigrants, the government or climate. food and has nothing to do become a national sport. Taking action is what people in the past. One would think that after many years the people who inhabit the wet islands would come with time. In fact, today has a mild sunny day of spring and became one of my colleagues said it was too hot. After that the worst winter for 18 years and the fact that the capital closed due to snow for a few days, one would think that the premises were a little sunshine for the welcome. Not really. That is what Spain. The rain is what they do in England, is unnatural and many days without as well.

I really do not know if never in. I'm trying to determine. Even I have a flat cap, to prove that I go fishing, which come in Lancashire, but I think that's enough – So I apologize, I will say my benefits, but I want beer and BNP a stranger.
