He's an idiot. After he's done a circuit of GB learning French, he can do another one while he learns German. And another one for Greek. And one for Turkish. And Arabic. And Farsi. In fact, one for every other language he's likely to need in order to say "peace and love, I'm not a freeloading backpacker, honest". :erm:

Hmm i am intrigued by this freeconomy can you really be that collectively stupid and not be locked up. How the hell does he plan to learn french walking around the coastline of the UK. Well i bid him well in torquay i got drunk one night fell asllep on what at the time seemed lovely little benches only to be woken by a policeman with a truncheon asking me to move on. I had heard they were redoing the muppet show never realised they had done away with the puppets.

Yeah, scramble the bomber! knew that Vulcan would come in handy one of these days. Just need something to drop out of it - I suggest Tony Blair.

I suggest a dual payload of Tony 'n Gordon....

I wouldn't inflict either of them two on any nation even as payload.

Actually by chance I think you may have stumbled across the manner by which Britain can re-establish its global empire and dominate the world. Surely all we have to do is drop the likes of Bliar, Prescott, Vaz, Mandelson, Straw, Harman, Brown, Darling, Hain, Robinson, Clarke, Reid, Hewitt, Blunkett, Cook, Jowell, etc etc etc etc at strategic locations across the globe and we will inherit the Earth............

Quite. Another useful phrase would be: Please kindly give me a visa to your country for free. I know you normally charge around £20, but I forgot to bring my Credit Card (and my razor, toothbrush, and soap).

I have to say I remember when he was interviewed on the Today programme on R4, I thought to myself "he won't get far..."

Having seen that photo, it's not hard to see why really.
