Social distancing.Howdoescan that work?
When they look horrified at the thought of her being Russian, she should say: "actually I arrived here on a boat and Im staying at the 5star Marriott around the corner for free"

Didn't see all this empathy in the Ukraine thread where blowing Russian tanks up with conscripts in them was relished.
you just made that up.
You're going to have to explain that, because I don't know what you're getting at.
As an old bold cold warrior, I have always viewed the Russian state apparatus with deep suspicion, and always will. There was a glimmer with glasnost, but Russia is a dictatorship. We can slag off our own pollies on here till kingdom come (we do), but to try in any way to equate our government with theirs would be ridiculous. People in Russia daren't write an open post like this; opposition is not just sidelined, it's murdered. Russian people, the ones I get to see close up are rich and obnoxious ****s. I am sure ordinary people are... ordinary people.
You need to read the thread back again then and point out where Russian conscripts are given a second thought when their tank gets blown to smithereens.
They say when you have to explain a joke then it's lost.
I just thought if Harry doesn't like Russians en masse and can take to a few individually then I thought it might help if they kept themselves 2metres apart if they met him en masse.
Dry as dust now but at least odds got it first time so it all wasn't a wasted effort.
Thanks. Your inlaws aren't correct. Statistically Russian roads are far more dangerous than British ones. Obviously the weather doesn't help in Russia, but Russians seem to be aggressive and adversarial when driving - or probably when doing other things too. Search Youtube for 'Russian car crash' videos - there are thousands. I'm always amazed to see their driving seems to often take no heed of the situation or risk - ie. barrelling through a busy junction at crazy speeds. Often there will be slow moving traffic and an out of control car travelling at great speed suddenly appears from nowhere wiping out several other cars/trams/people. Almost like the driver has had enough of life. I suppose living in somewhere as unremittingly grim as Russia can do that to a person.
I like to be discerning and judge on facts and my experiences. Not be influenced by how others want me to think. It's called survival. Immigrants fall into only two groups depending on their race and/or country of origin; those who will be an asset to The UK and those who are statistically higly likely to be trouble, a drain on resourses - often both. No other categories exist. I resent the presence of the second group and always will. I won't engage with them. I'm far from alone in these views.
A bit of a stretch imho, but thanks anyway
