My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

Just spotted these Sega Megadrive dioramas in my local B&M Bargains (UK) and nabbed a Street Fighter 2 one.
They also had Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Altered Beast, all £12.99 each. Could be a good cheap pressie for a Sega fan.
