Dec 13th, 2015 - 09:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Yes it's hell in Britain. The shop prices keep falling and it's difficult to spend all your money. I wonder what it must be like being gutter poor as the average Brazilian or Argentinian...or even worse a Venezuelan.
Well, it could not happen to a nicer bunch of people....enjoy.

Well, we have been here for millenia even when Brazil was unheard of in Europe until the colonial squatters from Portugal stole and trashed the land, murdering the indigenous inhabitants. It must make you feel proud to be descended from such a bunch of thieving colonials squatters.
Hated by America ? Your evidence for that apart from wishful thinking ?
Is it just me or do the people around Macri look smarter... not just in the way they dress... they just look smarter.

EXCELLENT.
