In the UK we still have laws from the First World War that mean we have to water down our beer significantly. That's why people from the UK tend to get completely and utterly rat arsed on a few German or Belgian pints.

That sucks. Our government just keeps increasing the tax for alcohol. When you buy a beer in Turkey, %52 of the money goes to government. Taxation is literally higher than %100.

Wanna stop people from drinking alcohol in the name of healthcare (or in reality, Islam)? Just make sure taxation is higher than the value of the product.

Technically, they never banned it, they simply got rid of all regulation and taxation thereof except for the selling part.


That sounds familiar somehow...

I'm going to do my best to suppress the bile in my throat, Sheb, and just say he's got the widest and tallest hat in Eastern European politics. Please, no more Cameron.

Just you wait, I'll get my army of Gordon Brown clones to come and be dour at you.
 
I might even instruct them to smile.

Oh dear, well, Belgium's entry appears to be an almagation of carnival left-over's and football supporter gear.

Luckily, the Dutch managed to do outdo us in silliness.

Philippines is best country in Asia. It's like a slice of Western everything in the East. It might be a poverty and corruption ridden nation but the current government has turned this poor and corrupt country into a lender nation.

Good food and good people. One of the best places to live in. Just remember where the flood prone areas and don't live there.

Poland is so Conservative it's charming. Is it true that older Polish men still kiss women's hands when they meet them?

I have stereotypes of Polish people in my head, I don't know what you'll think of them. First there's the working class Poles that we encounter most in this country with their liberal use of "kurwa", their ability to drink heavily, their wearing of tracksuits and their tendency to do the jobs we don't want to and do them better than we ever would.

The second is the middle-upper class Polish army colonel with a large, white moustache who thinks gays are Satanic, everyone in the immediate vicinity of Poland is a filthy foreigner and potential invader and women should be seen and not heard. He will be very, very easily offended and remember it for years, especially if the man who offends him is a foreigner.

I am sorely disappointed that Japan's entry was not shown. Because if the relatively sane countries looked like THAT....
