Barclay Bros bad losers or what.

[Jimbob]

I have ,not with a great deal or interest I must add, been following the latest developments on Sark re: the democratic elections. All I can say regarding the Barc Bros, is what bad losers they are. Yes they have put quite a lot of cash into the island over the years, creating employment etc, but to throw ones dummy out of the pram after not getting their way, leaves a bit of a bad taste in the mouth. It just makes me wonder if they had got their people into power what their plans would have been. Sadly we,ll never know, but a little piece of me wonders would it have been like a plot from a James Bond book, with plans to take over the world (or at least Guernsey)from hteir island hideaway.

The Barclays are arseholes granted, but the background fuedalism of Sark lives on under the new banner of democracy.

the Channel islanders are still forelock tugging Nazis who never got what was coming to them - though Churchill- the Old bastard - did decide not to invade the channel island early on as he was displeased with their performance during the war- letting the coppers marshall POW slave workers on their land isnt something they like to bring up these days - still, they eke out a living nowadays by laundering money & helping the rich avoid paying their way

a thoughly disagreeable set of island all round

string them up.Bush should have included them in the axis of evil - or maybe its sub genre, axis of parasitic wankers

Personally I'd like to see the Tracey's take it over and relocate International Rescue there

I heard they were planning on bulldozing Alderney and building a giant bowling alley and cinema multiplex there.

Best thing for the place, really.
