You can't pay me what I'm worth - I don't work that cheap
Good point.

Although ...

Does it even refer to the city any more, or has it broken free of its etymology?

Does the fact it's not capitalised make a difference?

And how should we spell Turkish coffee?

If only the consequences could have been forseen before they voted to leave.

I agree

Also: who on earth buys records in John Lewis?

I've ordered one of these from the British Legion for similar reasons

Well, we like red flags on the left, don't we?

So you think that the reason we don't have plastic straws is because of a plastic shortage?

Vinyl records are kept to be played, gloated over or resold, not dumped into the sea to poison it.

If anything, *all* plastic should be made into records!

I'm sure you're right but, as a counter example, there was this case in Bristol a few years back - that guy was also apparently treated as a hobbyist rather than a terrorist, even though he would have "failed" the colour chart in the meme.

There's a plug for your book later in the episode too!

If you were involved in the music industry, the whole thing would be about you!

But have a club's fans ever been banned for being the victims of violence or, as here, the anticipated victims of violence?

If only the cat's owners had been looking after it, it would never have got trapped.

But most cat owners don't take any care of their pets at all, just chuck them outside to take their chances.

And to kill wildlife and shit on other people's lawns.

Unless there's one of these, in which case, take your complaints to the council, rather than ignorantly shouting at someone with as much right to be there as you.
