Quick necro to add on to this fun fact: the voice used to overdub Adams was Irish actor Stephen Rea, perhaps best known for 1992's IRA crime drama The Crying Game, in which (among other things) his character assaults, and later fucks, a tranny.*Fun Gerry Adams fact: In the 80s, the Thatcher government passed a law banning all British broadcasters from broadcasting Gerry Adams' voice on TV or radio, showing that it wasn't just the Ulster factions who could be pointlessly petty. This backfired when broadcasters simply overdubbed his voice. The voice actors they used were generally articulate and charismatic, and this gave everyone the impression that Gerry Adams was some kind of master orator, and when the restrictions were lifted many were surprised to discover that he was just a hairy little terrorist with a reedy, petulant voice.
Ironically, he played the cop chasing V.Rea would later be third-billed (after Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving) in 2005's V For Vendetta, a film about political terrorism in which the Old Bailey is blown up.
We used to hear it all the time when I was a kid. My friends and I used to change the lyrics to "police shot my dog".Is that Feliz Navidad song being astroturfed for some reason? I swear I never heard that song in shops before yesterday and now I've heard two different versions on two consecutive days.
I've heard that since I was a kid. The OG version is from the late 70s iircIs that Feliz Navidad song being astroturfed for some reason? I swear I never heard that song in shops before yesterday and now I've heard two different versions on two consecutive days.
I always remember this version:We used to hear it all the time when I was a kid. My friends and I used to change the lyrics to "police shot my dog".
ScottishI have an aside about accents that doesn't fit in the News Megathread, and this seems like the best thread to ask.
I grew up playing a particular F1 game on N64 and I always assumed the guy on the pit radio was Scottish. I watched a video recently where a guy tries to beat every N64 game and he called the guy Irish. I realized then that I don't actually know for sure. I thought I would put it to the people here and see what you think. Scottish or Irish (or neither)?
The voice clips start about 1 minute 20 seconds in if you don't want to wait.
I think the “shitbin” one is retarded because pedal bins like those are a staple in women’s bathrooms for the disposal of used feminine hygiene products and will continue to be there regardless of the ethnic makeup of the country. That said though, when I was at uni there were notes in the bathrooms imploring the foreign students not to put toilet paper in the pedal bins so I see where he’s coming from.
Palestinian migrants have been granted the right to live in the UK after applying through a scheme meant for Ukrainian refugees.
A family of six seeking to flee Gaza have been allowed to join their brother in Britain after an immigration judge ruled that the Home Office’s rejection of their application breached their human rights.
The family had made their application through the Ukraine Family Scheme and the decision to accept their case came despite warnings by lawyers for the Home Office that it could open the floodgates to “the admission of all those in conflict zones with family in the UK”.
Chris Philp, the shadow home secretary, said the case showed changes to human rights laws were needed so that Parliament, not judges, controlled who could settle in the UK.
It is the latest in a series of controversial decisions by immigration tribunals, revealed by The Telegraph, which include the case of an Albanian criminal whose deportation was halted partly because of his young son’s aversion to foreign chicken nuggets.
His plan, such as it is, would have involved sending them to Egypt or some other middle eastern hellhole. This is entirely self-inflicted.Fucking hell, Trump's Gaza plan is looking more workable by the day.
Welp, Shit. Looks like Britain has started accepting Palestinian refugees now.
