Well if we don't count the bongs, how would we know how much bongs it is?! How would I know to salute his maj if I don't know it's free bongs? You gert yankee pillock!
How is Big Ben a landmark?
You can't even see it from outside.
Laughs in Elizabeth Tower.
Jesus Christ be praised! Henry's come to comment!
He feels quite hungry
Elizabeth tower?. you mean Big Mohammed? we call it Big Mo for short mate
but big ben isn't the name of the clock, it's the name of the bell.
According to that picture, the bell cracked in 1974 and the current bell is named Brian Blessed
THE BRIAN BLESSED?!
Why would anyone believe that to be true?
Many Brits lose any capacity for coherent thought whenever the threat of Muslims are involved.
Not even a uniquely Anglo thing tbh. During the great refugee crisis of whatever the fuck year, Estonians got all riled up too. It spawned our very own ultranationalist conservative party (which of course spouts all the same nonsense as Trump for some reason), which was very popular for a while - until they got enough seats in the parliament and some government positions, and everyone figured out they're not improving this - now they're no longer the most popular party at least, but still more popular than I'd like. People were truly hateful, because tens of thousands of Muslims were going to overflow our tiny country!
So the only real data I can find on how many refugees we've received is from a non-profit called the Estonian Refugee Council, which says that between 1997 and 2021, 603 people were given refugee status, with the biggest countries of origin being Syria (199), Ukraine (93), Russia (66) and Iraq (42). This is over the course of 24 years, so not even just the refugee crisis itself, which was something like 2015-2016 I think? Even if all 603 actually came in one year, that's not a lot of people even for our tiny country of 1.3 million. We actually have a much bigger problem with Russians than Muslims (by which I don't mean that Russians in general are a problem, but that there is a sizable subsection of Russians who think we still live in the Soviet Union, only consume Russian state media, refuse to learn the Estonian language, etc. Of course this group is shrinking because younger people tend to be more integrated.)
But people are always gonna hate. Conservatives just gotta throw bait and their voters eat it up :/
This is happening everywhere. General public is unable to fact check things on social media and political interests take full advantage of it.
Don't forget about:
- Bulgarians
- Poles
- Indians
- Pakistanis
- Hugenots
- Bloody Anglo Saxons
- Beaker folk
- Neolithic people
- Fish, crawling up onto our land
Stewart Lee does an excellent explainer of how it works https://youtu.be/Y38pbfJ4i_U
It's also the Rochdale Herald.
Rochdale makes Northern Post Industrial Shitholes look like Star Trek San Francisco.
Source: grew up around there, the trains(and then Trams) run twice as fast through there.
Because it was said so on the Internet, duh.
If they were smart they wouldnโt be racist in the first place.
Fun Fact, in Cantonese, "Big Ben" is translated as "ๅคง็ฌจ้", or literally "Big Stupid Clock". I guess that's the Hong Konger's way of getting back at UK for the colonialism. ๐คญ
More a rhetorical coincidence.
Ben sounds like ็ฌจ which means "fool" in Mandarin.
Every Hong Konger I've ever met likes the UK.
I'm from Guangzhou, not HK, so I guess my views are different. I view both the UK's colonialism and CCP's tyranny negatively. (Maybe UK was slightly less bad, but still... it was colonialism)
Also I didn't seriously suggested they hate UK, its a joke given the name they gave to it.
Okay, that IS a fun fact.
As long as they leave the internet alone
We call that transweb now.
fuck it.
The BELL is called big ben, not the tower
I vote to rename the tower as Big Mohammed while keeping the Bell's name. Big Mo for short. Big Mo & Big Ben have a nice ring to it.
and it will give half the gammons an aneurysm.
see no downsides
Even if they didn't know that the Rochdale Herald is a satirical newspaper, the fact that Rochdale is a random satellite town of Manchester, about 200 miles away from London, ought to have given them pause as to the credibility of the article.
No, scrub that, the headline was enough of a clue. Idiots.
The Big C(l)ock
Bouncing on my boys' clock
I love it when my best friend gives me a clock for christmas
At least the king of England isn't demolishing Big Ben to build a ballroom funded by demanding money from the department of Justice
Extremely deceiving.
I've been with a lot of Mohammeds. None of them were massive.
Totally average.
Not that I'm complaining. Simply conveying.
Maybe this one Mohammed's diet is composed entirely of 'murican food
Fun fact: in the French translation of the film Beauty and the Beast, Cogsworth's name is Big Ben
I fully support them actually doing this.
big ben is the bell, not the tower,. so renaming the tower to Big Mo (catchy name) wouldn't change the Big Ben.
and it'll give gammons an aneurysm.
I think it should be named The Elizabeth Tower...
Oh wait..
Li'l Liz Truss Tower
Tiny Truss Tower?
