Well Winning the World cup was the only decent thing that happened, just 12 short months later good old Harold (the pound in your pocket) devalued it, the only time in British history that has happened Mancie old chap :thefinger:thefinger

It beggars belief :rolleyes::eek:

Driver orders toddler off bus for wearing 'offensive' England football shirt | Mail Online
See today's Private Eye. This story was originally in the Stoke Sentinel which has now pulled it as being unsubstantiated. First Bus have said that they have fully investigated and can find no evidence to substantiate it. "No driver fitting the description given was working on any of the alleged routes at the relevant time, and although the routes were busy no one else has come forward about the alleged incident. It now appears that no such incident took place."
The Star, Mirror and Mail have all left uncorrected versions on their websites, as have the National Front and Stormfront.
Egg on faces?

ALL mainstream media outlets have been given the job of provoking divisions in society.

“Far from banning England shirts on our buses First is fully supportive of England’s World Cup campaign and we are, in fact, currently fitting good luck banners featuring England flags on all our buses in England.”
