Keep an eye on your swans Ireland...

There are few sights so serene as a swan sailing majestically along the Grand Union Canal.

Except, that is, when it is being chased by a gang of hungry, knife-wielding Eastern Europeans.

Polish and Lithuanian immigrants have been seen trying to drag the 20lb birds away, while the remains of some have been found butchered on the towpath near Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire. Hundreds are believed to have disappeared from the area.

Now, just in case the newcomers are unaware of the law protecting swans, members of Luton Angling Club have come up with a sign making it clear that they are not for human consumption

I heard they eat OP's who post stuff in order to incite a bashing of eastern europeans. Its just a rumour though so it must be true:rolleyes:

How about Western Europeans? Those French and Spanish fcukers don't half stink do they?

Pfft, thats a bullshít urban myth. Has been doing the rounds of many fine bastions of publishing integrity for a while now, including the Daily Mail, the Sun and The Limerick Post. Popular variations include "Eastern Europeans Eating our Donkeys!" :eek:

Damn right they do Pighead, although let's not all round on other immigrants just yet. While we're on the subject of smelly people I want to discuss a home grown problem that we should tackle first - - - -> Smelly Old People.

I was in Cork for the weekend and I was having a fine Roast Turkey and Ham dinner with the missus when an old Cork couple waddled in and sat down at the table beside us. The stench of BO was horrendous, I couldn't enjoy my dinner properly. It ruined it for me I could even say.

Let's tackle smelly old people before we harrass anymore immigrants I say.

Ah the smelly old people. Man I hate those fúckers. They used to always come into me when i worked in Tesco and wrech my head with their piss drenched clothes. I wish they'd fúck off and die already.

As cornbb said above, it's a myth. They've been here years and it's never mentioned as being a problem here. Does anyone have any hard evidence for it here in Ireland? Why the hell do we have to insinuate that these people are so backward so uncivillised that they 'hunt' for swans on our rivers and canal's. Why do we continually paint them in this bad light? I'm not referring to any 'other' illegal activities. I'm specfically mentioning the story of Eastern Europeans catching and cooking swans.
Are we smug, superiour, callous? What's with this attitude? It's a rediculous story.

Maybe we should round up all the old smelly people, glue on white feathers and paint orange beaks on them and chuck them in the canals.
They'll be dragged away in no time....

It's like killing two birds with the one Pole.... eh, I mean stone...

We took a bus tour when we were in Cork over the weekend and we sat up the front. I pity the poor c'nuts who were down the back with the old cork geezer who really did smell of pee. Imagine stuck beside that on a bus for 12 hours!!

They'd just drown.

But they were always in annoying me and then they'd piss themselves and I'd have to clean it up. Damn parents.

Did you happen to READ the story or did you just skim the topic and then get vaginally hurt?

Its just a means of turd-stirring used by trashy newspapers. They can't be sued for libel by a whole ethnic group so they get away with it, over and over again. Shame on them,

Did you try googling "swan polish urban myth"? Are you aware of what a POS "newspaper" the daily mail is?

There's the ones who smell like they're decomposing as well. Man, can they not shower?

Papergirl 1 · 08-08-2007 2:13pm

Eastern Europeans.....they'd just kill anything and pickle it. Then eat it later with some other goods that they purchased in Lidl.

Gee JOKER.......... you're story referenced the UK (a whole other country) not Ireland. I mentioned IRELAND. Did you read my response or just skim?

BTW- what's the situation with the wildlife in the US? There must be none left. After all America is a land built upon immigration and there are huge communities of Eastern European's there. I guess the only wildlife left is that which is in the zoo's eh?
