R33Racer he tried to get a seat in parliament in the election, but he stood in a rather bigoted area, which is a shame. Still, he helped stop farage get a seat, so that's only a good thing.
£50 billion divorce bill. The money we would have to pay EU up until 2020 if we were still in the EU, minus any funds we receive from them. £50 billion over 3 years, every 3 years for as long as we remained a part of it. Not adjusting for inflation. And some people wonder why others voted to leave.
Oosterbeek cemetery in Arnhem has Polish and British soldiers buried side by side, just as they fought and died during operation Market Garden. Pole's flew Spitfires and Hurricanes in the battle of Britain. Al Murray is a historian, he knows this, he also knows we still owe Poland a debt of gratitude for their sacrifices in WW2.
I'm a born and raised American I watched a bunch of this guy's videos I don't even I'm not even sure half of what he's talking about but he is funny as all hell
Al Murray knows his WW2 history like myself and the reason i have a lot of respect for the Polish is coz my Grandpa faught in Norway in WW2 and he spent a lot of time guarding German POW's after they liberated Norway. And my Grandpa became friends with polish army sargent who fled to England after Poland was invaded and he was fighting along side my Grandpa and they split them up coz he was Polish and they wouldn't let him near the POW's after what Germany did to Poland & its People...
Mesjasz Polish work hard, generally bring fairly decent workmanship and bring little trouble. Germany still protects convicted war criminals from WW2. Fuck Germany.
+GBXS There's almost none left today who was old enough during WW2 to commit any war crimes. Germany DID protect SOME people who would've been convicted of war crimes if they ever were accused of and put in front of a court but, lets be honest, Germany hadn't much to say in its own country untill the end of the cold war in the 90's. Even the U.S.A. and Britain let many trials slip under the rag if they could get a good deal. For example many German scientists, who were in one way or another associated with Eugenics etc. actually got of the hook by keep working with the Allies. Giving them informations about certain new inventions (much of this experimental progress was gained by using prisoners as test subjects but who gives a fuck right?) etc.
Γιώργος Ανδρινόπουλος I'm pretty sure the US has never gone bankrupt. Thomas Jefferson wanted to default on our debt, but Alexander Hamilton convinced people not to, as defaulting on debt increases your future interest rates. Hamilton was right. This makes me very skeptical about your other facts too.
Yes we have coffee. We've had it longer than the yanks have. However our primary suppliers of Coffee. Are American chains like Starbucks who come over to these sacred isles. Sell the piss they call coffee and then don't pay any tax. So as far as I'm concerned Americans can keep their bloody coffee and us Brits can sit back with a nice cuppa tea.
No, sorry mate, you're couldn't be more wrong. Compared to most Polish comedy, which really is either turgid dross or contrived slaptick, this guy is a genius. Plus us Poles are the only nation he seems to be complementing here while taking the piss out of his countrymen. You truly have no humour - or is it just the language barrier? Murray is in real life a well-educated liberal and yet he manages to make his conservative persona seem sensible and sometimes likeable. That's no mean feat!
Also.303 Polish Fighter Squadron set up by the Polish govenment in exile and we was very very greatful for the help.The battle of Britain started 10th July to Oct 31st 1941.The Polish pilots started defending British skies Aug 30th.303 had 89 pilots at first then another 50 pilots a few week later and witness said the Polish pilots would break formation and fly in to packs of messerschmitt's and take out 3 or 4.They was driven by anger and revenge for losing Family & Friends whilst Poland burned
Yeah, right. Me and my wife spent nearly four years living and working in London and when we decided to have kids, we went back to Poland. Wonder why? Knife / gun crime on the rise, junkies everywhere, credit crunch, terrorist threat, etc, etc. The only reason we had come to the UK was the fact you got paid well for working hard. And work hard we did. Don't get me wrong, we grew to love the country and we keep coming back as tourists but by no means is it the greatest country on Earth.
Lennart If you say "Anglo"-Dutch, Anglo is just a term for England, wars after 1707 were UK or British wars. If you still wanted ethnic tags, you could say Anglo-Celtic -Scotsman
xWHITExEAGLEx not sure if you're trolling or just don't know it but the 4 wars between the English and Dutch back then are called the 'Angelo-Dutch wars'. It's the name, it's a fact, no correction possible, you'll have to accept it.
Lennart Umm, I am not trolling. You said: "But the Netherlands and England (or UK, I dont know if the nations were united back then) have had a few wars: Anglo-Dutch wars." I am just saying that if you say Anglo-Dutch, it could only refer to wars before 1707.
HTHAMMACK1 We are here on this planet, in this life for 80 years on average, more or less. To be able to live a life worth living, we work 40 hours a week for 50 years. During this time, we have a family, buy a home, furnish it, maintain the utilities, securitize our world with insurance and savings, and when the weekend comes, we may watch TV and have a cook out with the family. This is a struggle for some more than others due to socioeconomic factors, education and health. The view I have is that we have been turned into consumers who are supporting the wealthiest business owners. It is my opinion that this type of lifestyle is not mandatory. Working our lives away, destroying our health in the process, to spend a couple hours a week relaxing was someone's idea who would benefit from it. Working us to death has benefits. There is no reason why we should have to work this hard. Lower the cost of living, replace billionaire CEOs and corrupt politicians with board members who are elected after being vetted for conflict of interest and allow the people to see the heaven on earth - the seven wonders of the world, the tourist resorts should be made into family parks with high speed rails and next-to-nothing fares and hotel costs. The human beings on this planet were not born to serve selfish and self-adoring mega-rich families in their opulent lifestyles. More now than ever, we see their failures, that they are incompetent and unworthy of this life in the lap of luxury. We would respect our planet more if we could enjoy it. Those who designed this "life" we have are no brighter than any of us, as one celebrity stated. And these people, living in chateaus and penthouses, have undoubtedly never broke a sweat during a day of work in their entire life. 3rd generation spoiled brats who create secret clubs or societies as if they are college kids in a frat house, making decisions to send millions of people into a state of war or starvation is what we have. So think about that.
Dub Crep I am tired of talking, and of having to set the conversation straight. I am tired of weak characterless cheaters living well on my dime. I am also fed up with the propaganda machine attempting to sway public opinion with rhetoric designed to provoke emotions regarding religion. There is nothing holy about Israel. The land exudes the stench of rotting souls.
lol, you only know what you know, but i will say, its what you dont know that matters, and seen as you dont know what you dont know, well, its self explained realy, thanks for listening, ps, put the kettle on, and live a happy life
@@dcmastermindfirst9418 That was as ignorant as it was stupid, and Al Murray would tell you the SAME F***KING THING! Fascinating the way EVERY single person who makes stupid ignorant comments on RU-vid is a cowardly, nameless, faceless, pathetic troll. Ever notice that anonymous one?
moreover Amercians and Britsh gave asian modern technology and they, moved many factories to asia and now is almost no big industry in Europe ! great! Can we survive only working for services and banks? probably not ! is not so complicated...
+bob bob Do what the Germans do. Develop and manufacture very high quality stuff and sell it for a premium price. There will always be a cheaper product but people are willing to pay more for a better product.
Considering the UK is richer than all the Asian countries bar China and Japan which are both much bigger countries it's much more complicated than that.
Really funny and mostly accurate (joke wise) except the ending, there is infrastructure in southern member states with signs that read “Funded by the European Union” next to them. Britain doesn’t see a lot of that, because you are rich and able to build that yourself.
Its British money that is providing "Funded by the European Union" money. Britain gets fucked over by the EU. I want to live in a peaceful, democratic, prosperous Europe. Therefore I voted to leave the EU. The EU is only interested in its own power. Wake up.
We actually had a temporary landlord from East London in our Devon village who said stuff like "When I was on the bus in Stratford everyone on the top deck was black. How is that? Or maybe they're thinking what is he doing on the bus?" Also, the 4 consecutive pub fires line. In Northolt, west London TWO pubs (The Plough and The Matrix) within a 3 mile radius burnt down in fires and housing estates were built on the sites in both cases. How about that?
Never has a truer word been said in jest, but its more complicated than that. Just think Teeth Tony wanted us to join the Euro, I did not think I would every think I would say this next name in a sentence with good idea. Thankfully Gordon Brown said it was a good idea to stay out.
Thanks a lot for these kind words, sir. However, I don't really think the hosts of Poles coming to Britain expect gratitude for our ancestors' bravery anymore. Jus giz a job, guvnor. :)
You know that The Pub Landlord is a persona Al puts on for his stand up, the real Al Murray is a very intelligent person who studied History at Oxford i believe
