In reply to the discussion: Hello DU. I'm new to the site and wanted to say hello. [View all]Limey202
(4 posts)30. Hello from England. Innit.
Hello from England.
Listen you lot, I just joined this board 'cos I am interested.
In UK I count as a moderate lefty. I have been on a couple of US Conservative sites (just for giggles and the arguments you know) and apparantly, in your terms, I am a cross between Karl Marx, Satan and some guy I never heard of, the cultural reference is non transatlantic. Sean Penn was it? I forget. Did he found Pennsylvania or was he the guy who used to suck Madonna's dick? Might have been someone off Friends. Dunno. Nigel something?
Anyhow.
Am I welcome here or is it insular American nattering? I have to say, your Conservative opposites are fairly outward looking.
