Good day for Sheilas, bad day for accents: British PM impersonates Julia Gillard
- From: news.com.au
- November 15, 2011
- David Cameron impersonates PM
- Could joke cause a diplomatic row
- Dodge Vegemite and crocs, embrace silly walk
IT is perhaps one of the worst Aussie accents in history. Worse than James Coburn's half-Cockney, half-American attempt in The Great Escape. Worse than Meryl Streep's "Ah Ding-gow ay-t my baibee".
It's so bad it could cause a diplomatic row.
British Prime Minister David Cameron put his foot in his mouth while speaking at the Lord Mayor's Banquet in London.
He was regaling his audience with an account of the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Perth last month - and probably felt the need to liven things up, and maybe get his own back on Ms Gillard for not curtseying for the Queen.
The highlight of his trip, he said, was an agreement by Commonwealth leaders to change the laws of succession so that if the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were to have a little girl, that girl could be Queen.
Do you think David Cameron overstepped the mark? Tell us below in comments
"At the end of this meeting I turned to the Australian Prime Minister and said, 'Thank you very much Julia for allowing us to have this meeting in Australia. And she said - I can't quite do the accent but I'll try - 'Not a bit David. This is good news for Sheilas everywhere.'"
The audience applauded but it is likely Mr Cameron will face a very different reception the next time he meets a "Sheila".
Let's hope Barack Obama avoids the same mistake when he arrives in Australia tomorrow.
Have your say

Umm, slow news day? I fail to see what is wrong with his impersonation of Gillard's accent. On the contrary, his Aussie accent is better to listen to. Talk about a storm in a teacup!

If the ABC here can depict the PM romping under the Aussie flag I don't think David Cameron can get into strife over an attempt at an accent !!!

Leslie of Mareeba. QLD Posted at 12:59 PM November 15, 2011
The effort was good. He sounds more like an Aussie than Julia G does at times. It wouldn't be a problem if it was Tony Blair or Gordon Brown. And it would seem to me that most diplomatic storms are created by and for the media. Good on you David. Aussies everywhere take the piss out of the English.

Funny..no diplomatic incident here. Tho the use of 'sheila' is soooo out of date now it's not funny.

Please, oh please, don't let people overseas think that Gillard's accent is Australian. Where she got it from only she knows but it didn't come from any part of Australia I have been in.

I thought Mr Cameron did well with the accent. He actually sounded better than Julia's bogan accent

What are you on about? The helicopter pilot on Fireman Sam has the worst Aussie accent by far.

What the hell was wrong with that? It's very hard, you know, to expunge from one's voice, forty-odd years of upper class and Etonian toffiness.

OMG everyone needs to harden up, her accent is appalling and embarrassing whenever she speaks. Lets put it this way her accent is on par with her management of the country - terrible!

Mr Cameron, Without Australia, or the Commonwealth supporting Britains wealth and prosperity, you would be just another 3rd world country. Remmeber that, next time you make fun of our PM - even if we all know that she's a bogan, she's our PM, and not your laughing stock - get it ?

jd melbourne Posted at 12:51 PM November 15, 2011
What's the issue? He said he couldn't do the accent before he made the comment & how many times do Australians take the mickey using English accents. Isn't there something actually important in the world to report?

The Overseer of Adelaide Posted at 12:50 PM November 15, 2011
What a great impersonation by Mr Cameron! And why would Julia, any Sheila or any other Australian be offended? As a child migrant of the 50's, I remember the Italian elders not only struggling with the English language but having to learn all things Australian including the Aussie drawl, the slang and the humour - and loving it!

If only we had David Cameron and not Tony Abbott! Stunning Prime Minister!
Comment 19 of 92
Johnny Worthington of Brisbane Posted at 12:49 PM November 15, 2011
Here's the thing. Maybe the PM actually said Shelia and the British PM was recounting that in the good humour it was said... which requires the accent for effect. That was a decent accent too

Classic example of the media trying to blow something out of proportion. Show me one true Aussie that gives a damn? Good on him for having a bloody go I recon. To me he was advertising Australia in a positive manner.

Rod of Fremantle Posted at 12:46 PM November 15, 2011
I thought David Camerons effort was quite good, much better than Streeps woeful effort. Good until the last word' where'; it is here where his upper class British pronunciation was finally revealed.

GlendaSings of Canberra Posted at 12:45 PM November 15, 2011
I thoroughly enjoyed his speech, what a great achievement and how nice for him to have an amusing anecdote about a female leader appreciating the change. No probs at all with his attempt at the accent. But, news.com.au has succeeded in getting our attention with this, so it was a win all around!

1.....why would we care what poms think? and 2......let them take the mick out of our accent, then we can do the same to them......anyone been to liverpool or newcastle or manchester or bristol or essex??? they are all impossible to understand trailer trash, let them have the occasional dig at us, take it on the chin, and do something they cant do, go to the beach!!!

Lyn of Qld Posted at 12:39 PM November 15, 2011
not that bad an accent and he did say he could not do it justice. As far as even mentioning a diplomatic row - good heavens, is there no news worthy of reporting other than trying to make something out of this bit of nonsense which I find no offense in whatsoever. Does this mean we cannot take the mickey out of the English, Irish or any other accent without causing some diplomatic incident. Precious people if you think so. My only comment is why would Julia call the women of Australia Shiela's. I find that rather an antiquated name of which I am sure most Australian women never found endearing in the first place. I never personally liked being called a Sheila, or a' bird' as women were called in the 60's. Still Sheila and Blokes go together in Australian folk lore I guess.

I switch channels as soon as Gillard opens her mouth. Never have I heard such a grating accent. I'd rather listen to nails being scraped down a blackboard. The sooner she goes the better!

kazann Posted at 12:36 PM November 15, 2011
I wonder how commentors would react if Ms Gillard had impersonated David Cameron or any of the other leaders publically? Some how I think people wouldn't be quite so sympathetic. Its not about whether the accent was done well or not, its about whether its an appropriate thing tor the leader of one country to do to the leader another.

He sounds better than Julia herself! Why would there be a diplomatic row over some humour? Get a grip..I hate all this politically correct rubbish. As far as using the word 'sheila' I and some of my colleagues use it all the time. Oh hell, I can see a diplomatic row coming up now...

The way everyone is carrying on about it before I watched the video I expected some horrific insulting line about all Australians or Aussie women. Now i've watched the video, all I have to say is, people complain about this?

Xrp Posted at 12:28 PM November 15, 2011
I don't know what the problem is. I don't even think he really attempted an Australian accent (he only emphasised what he was saying) and he certainly didn't sound like Gillard anyway.

Have a bloody laugh for crying out aloud. -"oohhhh I'm so upset - sarcasm". Proud to be Aussie and who cares what others dish out - I laugh because I know we are the best - would be better without Gillard and her carbon tax though.

P.J. of nsw Posted at 12:27 PM November 15, 2011
Be honest, most Australians make fun of Julia Gillards accent. It IS different to the average Aussie accent. Maybe it's because she grew up in SA with Welsh parents??? Don't believe she would say SHEILA, unless she was having a dig at Cameron!

Nads of Brisbane Posted at 12:27 PM November 15, 2011
I think it was fine, a bit masculine, but actually nicer than Julia's real, annoying voice.
Comment 50 of 92

I haven't posted on here much but I have a few questions and feel that from reading posts that this would be the best place to start. To make a long story short I have a 2.5 year old son with a man I was with for 6 years. We all lived together until August of last year due to the lease on my apartment being up and me not being able to afford it any longer. My son's father has never contributed anything towards him (money, help, etc). Even when he lived with us he still didn't really know his own son (I even sent my son to day care when SD was not working because he wouldn't watch him while I worked). None of his friends or family knew about me really and they didn't know about my son until about 3 months ago (allegedly). I now have a restraining order against him that gives me sole custody of my son after one physical incident and numerous threatening text messages, and it does not give him visitation.
Well he has now decided that he "wants to change" and wants things to be different, that the person I have the restraining order against isn't who he really is and that I over-reacted with the situations. He wants to be able to see his son, take him places and to visit family and friends (so he says to give me a break since I say I am always busy). I just really don't feel comfortable with him taking my son, I mean how can someone live their own child for almost 2 years and not ever form a bond with that child (he doesn't even call him daddy because he doesn't know him to be that). Well I talked to SD today and he's telling me about all the things he bought for his older son (different mother) to go back to school with and I just basically broke down almost in tears, I mean I can't even get $10 to buy some diapers and his other son is getting $120 sneakers, who would have the nerve to even say that to someone? He claims that he doesn't give me money or anything because he never sees us and that I don't make time for him anymore.
Well I want to fill out the papers and try and get support for my son since we don't have an order in place at this time. Am I wrong for wanting to get something for my son since it just doesn't seem fair? How do the courts work out visitation and does he automatically get him alone? Also, I feel that if he really wanted to see his son how come he didn't file a petition with the courts for visitation when he got the papers for the restraining order (wouldn't that show that he really wanted to see him)?
Well I think I am done rambling right now, just really needed to get this out and I don't really have anyone to talk to, thanks for any advice, I appreciate it.

Crop, Scale and Position effect units
Tue Apr 01, 2014 2:29 pm
I love Crop, Scale and Position effect http://userbase.kde.org/Kdenlive/Manual ... e_and_Tilt - it is irreplaceable.
I want to know only why units are not matched with clip resolution.
When I set effect to any clip default Scale X and Scale Y are 50, but 50 of what? Kdenlive knows what size is my clip - if my project is 1920x1080px 16:9 and I put clip 1920x1080px 16:9 start values of Scale X / Y should be 100 / 100 if we are talking about percentage units.
If I put 720x480px clip on timeline of project 1920x1080px it fills to project size, clip should displays proportional almost 3x smaller, and the scale effect values are also 50/50.
I wish in default see every added smaller or larger clip as smaller or larger than project size.

Re: Crop, Scale and Position effect units
Wed Apr 02, 2014 7:05 pm
If I remember correctly, the size actually seems to be the half extend in each dimension. Don't ask my why. But I noticed this as the positioning parameters actually reference the center and not the top left corner. Not exactly what one would expect, but we have to live with this parameter design, I'm afraid.

Rita Haymons and her sisters are spending their Saturday canvassing their brother's neighborhood hoping to find clues. Their brother, 46-year-old Bill Hilton, was found dead on his front porch in May.
Now, even though police have closed the case, siblings say they still have many questions.
Rita Haymons said, "I just want to understand what happened and when we go in the neighborhood maybe someone will remember something, if in fact anything did happen."
The Leon County Sheriff's Office did give this written statement:
"Based on reports by the medical examiner from the autopsy, interviews and witness statements, and evidence from the scene, we can not establish foul play caused the subject's death."
Family members are offering a $5,000 reward for more information into Hilton's death. If you think you can help call LCSO at 850-922-3300.

Great looking suit, wish the body were longer!!
I love the high cut at the thigh and the way it nips in and hugs the waist, but it's really short in the body. Hopefully that it will stretch out in the water, but for just trying on, it wasn't able to give me bust-support because the bust line was about an inch or two too low. Unfortunately that's the primary reason I bought it--I'm large chested (DDD) and need that support!! I don't think I have a return option, so I'm keeping it, getting it wet and stretching it. If it's like other speedos I've owned, hopefully it will lengthen. We'll see-- kind of frustrated.

Book Reviews
According to MatthewJ. Mancini, the South's postbellum convict lease system
reveals a great deal about the region's economy and politics. "All the major
themes of the period of Southern history were clustered together within that in-
stitution: fears of a labor shortage, racism, the dearth of capital, hair-trigger vio-
lence, the courageous efforts of humane reformers, and, through it all, the
struggle to modernize" (p. 2). While historians have conducted state-level stud-
ies of the convict lease system, such as Donald R. Walker's Penology for Profit: A
History of the Texas Prison System, 1867-1912 (1988), Mancini seeks to provide an
overview of the system in the South building on primary and especially sec-
ondary sources.
Leasing developed as southerners' haphazard solution to the problem of sus-
taining their prison populations cheaply. Few southern states, Texas being one,
had constructed penitentiaries before 186o. In the aftermath of the Civil War,
legislatures evinced little desire to divert scarce revenues to the care of their
prison populations. Although leasing exhibited a great deal of variance across
the states, policical corruption, brutality, and exploitation characterized it wher-
ever it took root. In Texas, for instance, convicts worked on plantations, rail-
roads, and in the timber industry.
The most significant and controversial aspect of Mancini's argument in his re-
jection of the view that leasing represented "'a functional replacement for slav-
ery"' (pp. 20-21). While acknowledging a connection between the end of
slavery and the advent of the convict lease system, his breakdowns of the South's
prison population by race over time support his contention that the relationship
between the two is more complex than most scholars have acknowledged. For
Mancini, leasing's flexibility in providing a source of cheap labor to exploitative
southern industries represents its primary significance.
While reformers railed against convict leasing for decades, Mancini rejects the
notion that they were the central forces behind its demise and credits economic
forces instead. By the early twentieth century, diminished requirements for a
cheap and readily available source of labor, as well as the rising cost of convict la-
bor relative to free workers, made the system less attractive. Disgust at lessees'
mistreatment of prisoners and the desire to capture for the public the benefits
of convict labor led many states like Texas to purchase state prison farms. In all,
Mancini has provided scholars with an important study of the convict lease sys-
tem that aids our understanding of the problems associated with the creation of
a truly free labor system in the South.

Under the project, 5 rehabilitation centers have been established at Mithi, Islamkot, Diplo, Nagarparkar and Chachro Taluka's for treating the affected peafowls by a veterinary doctor. Over 30,000 healthy birds at each village are orally vaccinated via drinking water to protect them from 'Rani Khet'. This project was implemented by District Development Association Tharparkar (DDAT).
"This training by USAID has raised my knowledge and awareness regarding quality, designs, color matching/mixing, and market trends. Now I am able to produce better products according to latest market trends" says a 45 year old Mooli Bai resident of Village Mithrio Bhatti. Small Grants Program is helping in reviving dying traditional arts and crafts of Tharparkar by enhancing embroidery skills of 1,000 artisans, and block printing skills of 200 artisans through 204 training events.

no glue vinyl floors
I am installing a no glue vinyl floor and want to glue it. What glue do I use?
What brand of vinyl is it?
While you technically can glue them down, I would check with the manufacturer first. For floors like Allure, doing so will void you warranty on the product, and I'm sure that's the last thing you'd want to do.
There's usually a customer service # or website listed in the instruction manual or on the box somewhere. Give them a call first.

I am the queen of the _______'s. I have been sent to give word to the nations about the beginning of time and of the heritage of the one soul that was lost, but eternal, that always was and is to be found again. This is the story of all my children. I was born on the mountain under the first man and woman who had come direct from a star. I was the first born of the _______'s. Indeed I was the mother and father but I was also the child and I was curious in all my ways. As a pupil of my father I studied the stars and in my youth I tailed after my mother who put herbs and roots into her skirt pockets. I got to put my hand on all these things. My story is long and has been written time and time again, but with every telling it has lost it's meaning. Even I begin to feel lost at times, but then I remember, I am, and I have always been. Somehow I keep going on. There are times when there seems to be a deeper meaning and now seems like one of those times, for many things are changing and many things are becoming clear. There has been a prediction. A prediction that was made at the beginning of time and it has been my job to keep track of. You may say that I have been an arbiter of these events, for indeed it was I who first assigned them after seeing it's vision in the sky, by being the first to record it in the ancient books and in each generation I have been involved in the direction of it's causes, but - I do not claim authority over such things. I, like you, or any other created being am merely here to see the working out of what I knew had always been. You see, I was here for the division. I was here to see the separation of the light into darkness and I understand the avenues the soul takes under these various earthly incarnations, which are both, at the same time, propellations and the heaviest of all burdens. The midlands, which is where I dwell mostly, which is in the same place that evens out the night and day, can have some of the gloomiest of all seasons, but - there are times of extensive daybreaks and these are the times I will try to describe. I, being spirit, cannot speak directly from my mouth, but I must use a diviner and through my time I have used many of these. My first name, and the name I use until this day is _______.

Ann Rises On Unusually High Volume (ANN)
TheStreet) -- Ann (NYSE: ANN) is trading at unusually high volume Friday with 8.5 million shares changing hands. It is currently at four times its average daily volume and trading up $2.51 (+13%) at $21.78 as of 3:51 p.m. ET. Ann has a market cap of $1.1 billion and is part of the services sector and retail industry. Shares are down 29.6% year to date as of the close of trading on Thursday. ANN INC. operates as a specialty retailer of women's apparel, shoes, and accessories primarily in the United States. It offers a range of career and casual separates, dresses, tops, weekend wear, shoes, and accessories under the Ann Taylor and LOFT brands. The company has a P/E ratio of 15, equal to the average retail industry P/E ratio and below the S&P 500 P/E ratio of 17.7. TheStreet Ratings rates Ann as a hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, notable return on equity and impressive record of earnings per share growth. However, as a counter to these strengths, we find that we feel that the company's cash flow from its operations has been weak overall. You can view the full Ann Ratings Report.

Michael Beasley's bag man: "Beasley knew everything"
Michael Beasley claimed innocence, but his benefactor says otherwise.
Michael Beasley is suing Joel Bell, the street agent who pursued Beasley when he was a 14-year-old prospect and tried to lock up his future rights. Among Beasley's allegations in the lawsuit are benefits that Bell and other men set up for Beasley's mother, Fatima Smith, paying off car and rent dues during B-Easy's one year at Kansas State University.
The lawsuit did not identify Smith's benefactor, but now a Washington, D.C., accountant has stepped forward and acknowledged that he was the mystery man.
Gregory Holloway told the Washington Post that he did indeed provide major benefits to Beasley's mom, violating NCAA rules. But, Holloway said, it's wrong for the Timberwolves forward to now claim innocence or ignorance.
"Beasley knew everything," Holloway told the Post. "His mother knew everything."
Beasley's lawsuit against Bell, his former agent who first came after the 14-year-old Beasley, is a countersuit to a breach of contract action Bell brought in January. Bell claimed Beasley's move from Bell Sports Inc. to Adidas representation was an act of wrongful termination.
Beasley's countersuit comes with a flurry of scandalous allegations: Most sensationally, he claimed that Bell and other men broke the most fundamental NCAA rules by providing illegal benefits while Beasley was at Kansas State.
Michael Beasley would probably rather not hear from Holloway at this time.
Those allegations are now more or less confirmed, with Holloway, the chairman of an accounting firm in the nation's capital, accepting responsibility for the outlawed favors. But Beasley's lawsuit did not acknowledge what Holloway told the Post, namely, that Beasley and his mom only got what they asked for.
Holloway said he paid for Smith's moving expenses and rent in Manhattan, Kansas -- where she'd relocated to be with Beasley during his freshman year in college -- because Smith asked him to do it. And, worse, Holloway says he made payments on Smith's SUV at Beasley's request.
Holloway couldn't recall exactly how much he'd spent on Beasley's mom, but the Manhattan Mercury reported on Friday that Holloway wrote a check for $11,200 to cover seven months of rent for Smith's apartment.
Holloway says he met Beasley through the teenager's AAU coach, Curtis Malone, who is also named in the suit as the man who introduced Beasley to Joel Bell. But, Holloway claims, he was not induced by Malone to support Beasley or Smith, and says it was his own decision -- one that he now regrets.
"I was just trying to be helpful," Holloway told the Post. "They both couldn't afford it.
"In retrospect," Holloway went on, "I wish I hadn't done a thing."

Bike Tours of Naples
Want to visit Napoli but only have a few hours? Hostel of the Sun is now organizing guided tours of the Naples coastline by bike.
Starting in the main square of Naples, Piazza Plebiscito, you take the road down to Via Caracciolo, where you already get some amazing views around the bay, to the famous Castel dell'Ovo and to the area of Mergellina.
When we arrive at Mergellina, we take the funicular train up to the hill-top area of Posilippo which has some of the most breathtaking views over to Vesuvius, the peninsular and on a clear day even as far as Sorrento!
The tour continues around Posillipo all the way to the most northern point of the bay at Parco Virgiliano with views to Procida, Ischia and the island Nisida. From here we take Via Posillipo all the way back down to the city center, along the coastline in the opposite direction all the way back to the main square.
If all this sounds like hard work, you can also take one of our electric bikes…
Just ask at reception for more details and to make reservations! Tours are leaving every day either in the morning or the afternoon and the trip takes around three hours.
Cost: 20 euros per person
Duration: 2-3 hours
Upcoming Events

Get Knocked Out – Get Revived By Way Of Watersports And A Fluffer
African fighting creates a new way to bring you around from unconsciousness after getting KOed.

holycow January 1, 2014
Don't pass out at a party around them guys. That was pretty weird.
Rules of the fight. Get knocked out and u get forcefully cracked off by a bunch of dudes until u wake up
KevinT January 1, 2014
What the f**k is going on here??? They rub his balls and d**k to wake someone up???? DA F**K!!!!
dankarelli January 1, 2014
R U KIDDING ME!?!?!? hahaha
pouring water over an unconscious mans face can lead to aspiration (Inhalation of water). But at least he got a free hand job out of it.
Only in Africa.
mmafan11 January 1, 2014
Seemed like the guy enjoyed it that's why he got knocked out to get the hand job(s)…:))

This is why GSP retired…he wants to fight in Africa
paddedummy January 1, 2014
This type of man on man action is why 90% of Africans have AIDS
Poolk January 1, 2014
@paddedummy everything the black man sees the white man do, he does.
insoluble January 1, 2014
This is South Africa guys!!
LMAO, I've seen worse from the natives of my homeland 😀
Chicago January 1, 2014
@ paddledummy that 90% stat is misleading due to AIDS foundations want more $ for their cause. They usually only test for low immunization levels, not for the actual AIDS virus. Low immunization can comes from bad nutritio, lack of vitamins, and being already sick with a virus, or bacteria.
blzd January 1, 2014
wtf that guy just wanted to touch another mans junk cuz the guy that got ko didn't even wake up lol
Mexguit January 1, 2014
Worst and best day of his life hahaha.
So you want to be an ultimate fighter?
Vin January 1, 2014
What a testament as to how stupid our species is .They've probably done that forever and as people awake after they do….
Wonder how the first guy got the practice to start.As funny as that was -that guy was out for a long time.I think they feared he was pregnant after such a resuscitation.
Morelia88 January 1, 2014
Does anyone know if that man was revived? He had gotten rocked twice before that final knockout, and then the video ends with them carrying him off….kinda concerning
HannSolo January 1, 2014
He was fully awake, he was just acting unconscious so he could get a handjob. They should at least have a woman there to do it
marvelous mad madam mim January 1, 2014
now i understand why blacks in america prefer to be called african american rather than american. they are proud of their african heritage
stranger January 1, 2014
uh wha.. what?
If I ever get knocked out, just leave me there please.
that one dude couldn't wait to get into those pants.
Concerned Citizen January 2, 2014
If they do that in front of the crowd, what are they going to do after they take him away?
wow January 2, 2014
Kind of depressing how ignorant some of these comments are.
shocktime January 2, 2014
Comments like himler make me ashamed to live in America. Crawl into a hole himbler with a over under mossberg loaded with some 00 buck put barrel to your neck, and pull the trigger. That's the best way you can serve your country sir.
BiteMyBird January 2, 2014
Did it twitch?
OscarMayhem January 2, 2014
The water-boarding and crotch massage are funny, but you insecure little dick bastards need to make this about race. Racism is alive and well.
shocktime January 2, 2014
You delete my comment but leave Himlers Bruno? Where is the justice?
Bruno: I did not delete.
Joe Dog January 2, 2014
Wow, now that's interesting. I once had a girlfriend who used to wake me with similar technique, sans the water bucket. After reading "fluffer" in the title of this post, I envisioned a large breasted young babe bouncing her wares and…Whoa!
PowerTele January 2, 2014
All I can say as a half-black man is that I am glad to be in the USA. That African stuff is crazy. No lower half massages for me by any dudes.
jpkrunch January 2, 2014
The irony is you morons making the racist comments are what is wrong with this country.
Iknives January 2, 2014
wEz January 2, 2014
The problem isnt so much about race as it is large scale multiculturalism. Its a failure on so many levels as seen hee in the u.s.
gphilos January 2, 2014
Like it or not I've seen just as much homo idiot/ignorant stuff done by random "Amurican" frat boys. Uneducated is uneducated no matter what country and skin color. Of course the standard level of education is much lower in these areas so the frequency may be higher. Context people… but this shi t is f ucken wierd.
Facefrack January 3, 2014
First, I'll say that this seemed like quite a strange way to try to revive someone and that it was disturbing he didn't wake up.
I also want to express total disgust with the degree of homosexual and racial intolerance on this page. I was most especially disparaged by the comments made by Marvelous and Himler. We should all be clear that Himler is a misspelled shortening of Heinrich Himmler, who was one of the main Nazi generals to engineer the Holocaust. It is sadly ironic to complain about lower brain capacity in black people while misspelling the name you chose and demonstrating a total lack of education with your grammar, not to mention the moral indignity of propagating such ignorant garbage. I don't wish you death like Shocktime, but I would have a really hard time not spitting in your face if I ever saw you on the street.

Graham: Hi, I'm Graham, I farm in Devon and supply spring lamb for Tesco. It's a family-run farm; me, my wife Sarah and our two children Sam and Rachel both on the farm full time, seven days a week, 365 days a year. This is Rachel, my daughter, she's come on the farm to work and really enjoys it.
Rachel: I enjoy working alongside the rest of my family, it means that I get to see them all the time and we can always have a chat and we know what each of us is doing and we know how we like to do stuff. Producing lambs is very hard work; it starts from the ewes are put into lamb. We then bring them in ten days before they're going to lamb to make sure that they're well looked after. They lamb inside so they've got time to bond with their lambs. They're then put out about ten days old where they go out into grass. They then carry on on grass with a little bit of help from the cereals we give them but they can look after their lambs and produce enough milk to make the lambs grow. My favourite thing about working for our family business is you rear lambs, you put them out in the fields and you see them every day and you know that they're well looked after. I think Devon's a good place for rearing lamb because it grows a lot of grass, you can see all the rolling hills means that the lambs can get down out of the winds and the harsh conditions and they can enjoy being out in the field on the grass.
Graham: We keep Poll Dorset ewes and we use Poll Dorset rams because they will breed all year round.
Rachel: They are native to this country and they would taste good because they're reared well. I think it's very important to eat British lamb because it's produced to a very high standard, it's locally sourced and it's produced on lovely pastures. My favourite way to eat lamb is on a Sunday; Sunday roast with all the family. It's great, it's a lovely piece of meat and you know that everyone's going to enjoy it.
Graham: A leg of lamb for Easter would be absolutely brilliant. I think our lamb is really, really good quality because it's a family run farm and the sheep get day to day care and we like to think that Tesco get the very best.
