England. They've lost the plot.

And that's coming from a Pom himself. Sam from London called into the Hot Breakfast this morning to share the disbelief that the soap dodgers didn't vote for our bid to host the Women's World Cup. They went for Colombia instead, despite their bid being significantly lower rated than the Oz-Zealand bid. 

Maybe they were too busy not looking after their teeth or voting to leave their biggest trading block worth $750bn a year. 

Eddie McGuire was particularly unhappy with the Poms and absolutely let them have it, prompting Darc to suggest the phone topic "1 333 53, what do you hate about England?" 

To add insult to injury, the President of the Football Association, Greg Clarke, didn't even take Jacinda Ardern's phone call this week, when she called to talk about the vote. 

Eddie wasn't impressed. "It's good to see England voted in solidarity in Europe... that’s the mob they’ve just ‘Brexited’ from, remember that? Next time you have a World War and call us up..."

'It's staggering that the Poms could look themselves in the mirror after not voting for (the Australia-New Zealand bid))."

"They’ve voted: Columbia or Australia and New Zealand? ...that’d be the ANZACs wouldn’t it? Yeah, that’s good, we remember them at Gallipoli don’t we? Two World Wars, sent all the food parcels over during the wars, yeah, nah we’ll vote for Colombia.’

“Fair dinkum. So when they come, we'll remember OK? What a low act.”

Ed's clip prompted a phone call from listener Sam from London. And he's even more done with English people than Eddie! "They've lost the plot. First we shouldn't have left the EU, now we've gone against our friends." 

Meantime, yesterday in England nearly 500,000 people went to Bournemouth beach (if you can call it a beach), showing how seriously they're taking the threat of Covid-19. People have a pop at Victoria, but cop a load of this mob:

This comes weeks after the Senior Advisor to the UK Prime Minister Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson (That's his actual full name. Fair dinkum) drove all over the country during lockdown and escaped punishment after saying he went for a drive to "test his eyesight"

We could go on...
