Barak Obama and David Cameron are shown a time machine which can see 100 years into the future.
They both decide to test it by asking a question each.
Barak goes first.
“What will the USA be like in 100 years time”
The machine whirrs and beeps and goes into action and gives him a printout, he reads it out "The country is in good hands under the new president, crime is non-existent, there is no conflict, the economy is healthy. There are no worries”
David thinks “Its not bad this time machine, I'll have a bit of that” so he asks
“What will Great Britain be like in 100 years time?”
The machine whirrs and beeps and goes into action, and he gets a printout.
But he's just staring at it.
“Come on David” says Barak, “What does it say”
David replies,
“Buggered if I know ! It's all in Arabic!”
(I would have put this in 'Jokes' but, is it a joke?)

"Part of the problem, perhaps, is that our national debate about immigration encourages us to think the level is much higher than it really is. Asked to estimate the proportion of foreign-born people living in the UK, the average guess is 29.4%. The true figure according to OECD data is 10.8%, lower than Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, Canada and the USA."

ttfn.....the end of the film is poignant to me as when Guy Gibson is talking to Barnes Wallis and says "I must go now, I have a lot of letters to write" These were of course to the wives of the Lancaster crews that failed to return.
I often wonder.....the wives never got any "counselling" .......did they do any worse than present day widows who are councelled?
