But, like, if you destroy your passport, you can't leave the country (which is surely the object if you're that ashamed of being British).

I was wondering about the problem of leaving the country and came to the same conclusion. It'd be funny if half the country tried to claim asylum in France.

I was thinking the other day...

Within the EU, one is allowed to freely migrate. One is also given the right to pay taxes to one's home state while living/working in another, for a period of up to 6 months.

So I was thinking of officially migrating to France, paying taxes there, but living in the UK and working here for the next 6 months.

After 6 months, there's always Germany.. ;-)

Quite right too, and I did like the following; on going to the Guardian homepage I found:

Blair: war going to plan
2.15pm: 2nd UK soldier dies in combat

Boy, has he got a timetable!

I'd heard he's a control freak, but that's ridiculous!

I can only add my praise to that already offered. Good for Iain Banks.

How come you get eight comments on this, when I, having posted it seconds before you, get one (thanks [livejournal.com profile] green_amber)?

Comment-whore Martin.

It could, of course, have something to do with the relative sizes of our friend-of lists.
