    The British having good taste??

    The problem of the British living in Dordogne is the insecurity theyve brought in the region, look at this very recent news:

    A British handyman has been found guilty of murdering an expat millionaire golf course owner he worked for in the Dordogne region of France, in a frenzied attack over a remark about his mother.

    Holy ****. Two British person murdered someone in one year. I'm astounded we haven't been banned from visiting any nation within the EU. Why hasn't the UN hasn't asked for a naval peacekeeping force to prevent us leaving the islands.

    Also I'd dispute that murders in 2009 qualify as "very recent" news

    The subject of an MP representing the interests of those overseas and residing in BOT has raised its head in the Commons before so who knows.

    It clearly indicates that you support and condone terrorism which has earned you a permanent ban from this forum.

    If I worked and lived overseas and were non domiciled I would want to vote in UK elections like the 13000 other Brits that do so I see nothing hypocritical about participating in the democratic process of my home nation.
