He was on the Big Fat Quiz of the Year, so it can't be all that bad. Also, they did sow them back on. It all turns good in the end kids...

Pardon?
Everyone knows British Law is corrupt, you can't believe everything you hear coming out.
Next you'll be listening to the government's cries that speed cameras every 100 yards aren't just a money making tool.

I believe that technically Wales (like England, Scotland and Northern Ireland) is a Nation state.
Great Britain is a country, it's components are nations (if we're going to be picky).

Boy, you are in fact, correct.
Lots of people don't know this but:
England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland are all Nations.
Great Britain comprises:
England, Wales, Scotland.
The United Kingom comprises:
Great Britain (i.e. England, Wales, Scotland) and Northern Ireland
The "Home Nations" are:
England, Wales, Scotland, Northen Ireland and Eire.
Quite how The Isle Of Man fits into this, I'm not sure.
And the 6 Nations, that is something completely different and that's for another debate.

Well if we are going to be picky, then technically the nation state is a myth, despite being widely used as a term. Great Britain is a State, meaning it is a sovereign, has set bounderies, is autocratic etc... but it is not a "nation state" because all the people within its borders do no identify with one 'nation' or ethnic cultural heritage... For a state to be a "nation state", all its populus must claim to be of the same ethnic and cultural backround, because otherwise it cannot be identified as a state defined by a single nation. To be clear, a Nation is in fact not a country, but more a cultural identity and common history, thus "the Indian nation" within the US are not a separate country, but a people who all share a common cultural, ethnic and historical backround that have chosen to be officially identified as such...
Ok, I'll shut up.

Not really, but obviousley the reason for this greed is to sell them on for probably double the price as stores in Northampton have decided to do so over the Christmas period.
CEX charged I think something like 700 quid at one point, outragous and I asked them if they sold any of them and they actually sold almost all of them.
Scary...
Either that or the picture was created to mezmerise people into believing the world has come to an end because of one person's greed and dominance, which lead to people killing themselves because of the horror.
