It's interesting you bring that up now, because there was a story in the BBC
a couple of days ago with an attitude about it that I didn't understand at
all:

I gather there's some tension there, based on what you're saying. That gives
me a better idea of why the BBC story mentioned "pom invasion," as if
everyone is supposed to understand the reference.


Unarmed Brits are probably the only type of folks they can get to move
there now, what with their rapidly growing crime rates since the gun
bans.
