ha...dont feed the laiosto troll. Not that it matters but the largest Australian survey showed 8.6% men and 15.1% women as having same sex experiences, a corresponding UK survey showed the total gay population at about 6%. He probably cant get out of the closet due to the huge chip on his shoulder. Homophobic bigotted and a twat...what a winning combination.
@Iaiosto i'm sorry mr your fucking origin is the same! my dad is a aussie so might i remind you to shut the fuck up and another thing "frog-speaking scandinavians" WTF? also you homophobic wanker how about you say that to us here and my family works for a living you twat
@dramerc1 No my origin isn't the same dickhead,they are no gingers in my heritage.My ancestors fought the Turks,Persians and other barbarians as they invented modern society.Did you fall asleep in history class?The Normans were French speaking descendants of vikings.Hence Frog speaking Scandinavians.I'm not phobic of anyone,I just find pommie poofs hilarious.You sent your crims to a paradise while you sat behind in a shit hole.The joke is on you,you soap dodging wanker.
I went to Wales once. It rains non-stop and is very cold. No-one speaks English and they think they are special. Everyone is stumpy and gloomy. They eat nothing but seaweed and cheese on toast. They think Max Boyce is funny and they are outnumbered by sheep, They talk of nothing but rugby and they sing 24 hours a day. They are very racist and everyone is an arsonist. The only flowers are daffodils and they think Neil Kinnock would have made a good PM. Avoid this place like the plague.
And I say their ignorance prevailed because none of them bothered to speak to me properly and learn that I myself am Welsh and have lived in the valleys for around ten years. They presumed I was English because I didn't have a Welsh accent (as many people from Brecon or Camarthen do not). I didn't have the spiky blonde-dyed hair they all seem to like and well, I was being polite. I dare say if I approached them saying 'ari' butt, ows i' goin, like?' I would have recieved no horribleness at all.
@TheNickNitrogen That's Wales for you. Unfortunately Mr Mitchell is just plain wrong on this issue, or at the very least he's never been to North Wales! Up here if you don't speak Welsh you might as well just volunteer to be beaten up and have it over with! Not that this would stop them attacking you again of course, but that'll only be when there are at least eight of them.
People who say the Welsh are lovely need to be careful. I'd be willing to bet they hadn't bothered going to the halfway point. The valleys about thirty miles north of Cardiff and Swansea. The people who live here are generally unpleasant and are hostile to anyone who doesn't live in around a ten mile radius to them. Just the other day I approached some of these men politely enough and before I got a word in edgeways, I was told to fuck off bcak across the bridge. Their ignorance prevailed
I went to England once. It is constantly foggy and cold. Everyone travels in carriages and wears a hat. There are beggars everywhere and the poorest are placed in workhouses. The rich, who all own a butler, live in stately homes. Every child has a nanny and goes to boarding school at the age of 7. They hunt and shoot anything that moves and they eat nothing but meat and potatoes. Everyone is constantly drunk and they love to fight. They invented every sport under the sun. Avoid.
I went to Scotland last year. It was freezing and rained non-stop. The only food was haggis, deep fried Mars Bars and shortbread & everyone is fat. All the men are transvestites & the women look like men. I couldn't understand a word anyone said & everyone had false teeth. Most of Scotland is sparsely habited due to the midge plague. Most children have MS due to the appalling weather & the oldest person is 50-years-old. I couldn't sleep due to the 24-hour-a-day bagpipe playing. Avoid.
@karezza6 noone speaks English? What part of Wales did you visit? The North? I visited there in January, it was cold, it barely rained and the people were lovely.
I watch a lot of British panel shows and what I've noticed is that while the Welsh get occasional ribbing it seems as though Australians are genuinely hated. Listening to comedians talk about them anyone would think they were still a prison colony full of nothing but scum. Even Mitchell has made jokes about them, though lighthearted ones. Others (Jack Dee for instance) seem to really sneer at them as a nation.
I've met a few Aussies and generally had a few friendly arguments with them. When I meet people from other Commonwealth nations I usually get on great with them, that includes the Canadian owners of a Hostel who gave me some free soup they made and I returned every afternoon. They ended up calling me a tramp and I called their Hostel a glorified soup kitchen. In Britain we consider Commonwealth countries like the "brothers and sisters" of our nation. We even call the Yanks our rebellious cousins
@WalterLiddy That is only because we Aussies see the British as whingeing poofters and we usually soundly thrash them at sports.There is also envy as Australia is a great place to live in with a delightful climate,whereas Pommyland is always damp.They curse their ancestors for not getting nicked and sent here for free.The airfare from Britain or (Nova Pakistan) is quite steep,so they settle for shitty Spanish resorts.They are our dowdy ,grumpy ,slightly queer elder uncles.
@bennyboyjones Neither were mine you pommie poofter.Come and visit ,if you can afford it,you would feel right at home,it is pissing down.Then again we aren't over run with Indians and Pakis so you will feel homesick.
@laiosto I don't know where you've got the idea that the English are camp. Bleach blonde hair and walking around on the beach shirtless with your "surfer buddies" seems more gay than anything we get up to.
I wish I could think of something funny and witty to say about Australia but it's such an insignifcant country that I don't think I can manage it.
You need to calm down though, it's not my fault a poisonous spider bit your testicles off.
@bennyboyjones Why do we think you are gay?Hmmm? You have just imagined me as your ideal male fantasy.There is a reason right there.Please don't try to bum me,I am flattered by your pique you sweet talking poof.The Poms are the modern holders of the World's Gayest Country.George Michael,Elton,Freddie Mercury,TECHNO,soccer and the royal family.There is a butch collection right there.We have hard dangerous animals like sharks,spiders ,snakes and wild pigs,you have hedgehogs.
@laiosto might i remind you your country was founded by dogs of humanity the criminal scum we did not want? you are a pathetic excuse for a people now shut up and go be hanged
@dramerc1 Your country was founded by some Gingers who were fucked by some Italians,who stayed for a while and you had ginger-italian crosses,they were fucked by some germans,who got fucked by some frog-speaking Scandinavians.Gee,everyone seems to fucking you.Maybe that is why you are gay,and so cross all the time.If your family pools their benefits,you might have enough for an airfare over to see what you are missing.Now you can go back to bumming your mate.
@laiosto Wait so living around animals that dont try and kill us when we walk near them makes us gay? How is Football gay? Whats gay about the royal family? I couldn't give two monkeys about Techno. 3 gay 80's pop guys one of which isnt from the UK and is currently dead, how does that make 64million people gay? If we were all gay we would die as a country within 100 yrs as you cant reproduce through the same gender.
@llpalm08 How is football gay?Have you ever watched it? Girls can compete against men.Everytime they score they get bummed by their team mates.When they trip they cry little girls.All poms are whiney little poofs.You take offense and cry like a little girl over childish gibes,hence you are a poofter.
@laiosto Ive never seen an official footie match where men and women both play in the same match, I agree that there are a bunch of winging twats in football but they are mostly at the top and I feel that they ruin the game with their moaning about someone messing up their hair etc (christiano ronaldo). We dont all take offence just the twits that do are generally more vocal about it than most other countries.
@WalterLiddy I can't think of anything against Australians, the general steriotype is that their all layed back and cool, I think the americains get it worse, everyone I know can't help but think most Americains are a bit thick. YES I KNOW IT IS A STERIOTYPE, please dont be angry Americains!
@Sboy200 I like em both, and england too really, except the big cities, too busy and full of immigrants, soon England will have less English speakers than Wales has Welsh speakers lol
I love scots and irish for the most part but Im often taken back for how much they change their attitudes and tones when anything english is discussed. Its quite ugly to see how their faces contort out of shape of pure bitterness and hatred. Im not saying its underserved, but its a pity that good, hard working people, that are loveable most of the time still hold so much resentment
The reason no one votes for the Conservatives in Wales and Scotland has nothing to do with them being more liberal or left wing, it's because the Conservatives are seen very much as an English party more than a British one.
@01000001011100100111 Nope, in Wales at least it's because of what the conservatives did to the miners in 1910/11. There's far too much to cover in 500 words, but in essence, the Conservatives (specifically Winston Churchill) did some despicable things to people and as a result, Churchill and the Conservative party generally are still despised through much of South Wales. Look up "Tonypandy riots" for specifics.
@Timmeh7 there is more to it,successive english governments robbed wales of its mineral wealth throughout the 19th and 20th century.
wales once vital to the british economy has become the country england wishes would go away and die.conservative or labour ,the decisions come from london england .lloyd george or churchill it makes no difference .and today we have the assembly ,yes well as you say 500 words are not enough.how about 500 years.
@ralphcraddock I suppose I honed in on that especially because my grandfather was there as one of the miners, and relayed the events to me first hand, and it's still the one that people really talk about in the area I live in. Certainly voting Conservative has stigma. You're right though of course, the ways in which the English screwed the Welsh over the years are numerous.
And the English (or atleast me) are sad that everyone hates them even though we agreed to allow them to have their own parliment and still vote in theirs, but they don't get to vote in anyone elses...can you tell I'm English?
I'm an American with Welsh, Scottish, and Irish ancestors. I've never met an Englishman, but I still feel an impulse to insult them from time to time.
@grimthane thats your right as a typical plastic paddy. The most rabid, fanatical, and stupidly ignorant anti-english people on the face of the earth are the plastic paddys of america, funding their IRA and longing for their emerald isle that never even bother to visit, but they do get drunk on st patrick's day!
Wait. I list the Irish third among my ancestors, and make a joke about insulting the English and you inflate that to an IRA supporting "plastic paddy"?
@grimthane I hate to break it to you, but if that was a joke Im afraid you arent very funny. Also I was responding to this typical archetype theres in the states who think because they have a trace of irish blood they're required to hate the english and support the IRA. Ive had the disgrace to encounter the type many times
1:00 I don't think we're inherently right-wing, I think we're inherently elitist, I think we're also aware of this which is why on occasion English people make a concerted effort to to jump to the ludicrous opposite extreme of elitism which leads to situations like trained doctors being interviewed alongside people who claim to be able to cure cancer with a rabbit's foot or something, on day time TV
Isn't it arrogant saying "I'm a little bit Welsh" when clearly if you were Welsh you'd be living there, and be part of the Welsh society. Your parents don't make you Welsh because they happen to be from Wales, your society you grow up in makes you the nationality you are. I got German ancestry on my grandmother side, but I'm not part German - I'm fully a westernised Swede. Think on that.
Ah, David Mitchell has a nice cozy South Wales experience of the Welsh. Being an Englishman living in North Wales is quite different, and involves a degree of being shouted at and occasionally punched for no other reason than having an English accent. I quite understand it (living here has cultivated comprehension) but believe me, in this particular case Mr Mitchell is...misinformed.
the levels of casual racism going on here are both funny and worrying. as a scot i've never understood why so many of us hate the english, it's been hundreds of years since we were actually oppressed. though there is some smugness due to stereotypes like alcoholism etc, but they are mostly true so we can't really complain :P
it beats me why 99% of scottish people are extremely friendly to everyone... as long as they aren't english.
@dm9910 here in the US, we just assume all scots are either Demoman or James Bond. Meeting a real scot will often infuriate and confuse us because the reality is much less cool/hilarious than we imagine.
@MisterZimbabwe haha :) i actually know a guy who went on an exchange to america, and convinced the entire family he was staying with that he was a haggis hunter and wore only kilts (he told them he bought the clothes he was wearing specially to use while in the US). needless to say there was an awkward moment when the american kid came to scotland a few months later :P
@dm9910 Because the English generally now, are very annoying on things like holidays. And the skinheads are a bunch of twats... not all of them... but most of them. :P
@RichyBMelodies Well see, that's what's funny It's not racism is about Race, and Race alone Clue's in the name But hey, it doesn't matter What are you doing wasting your time being wrong about Racism when you've got a lot of work to do if you're going to kill me right Get back to it Being wrong about Racism is a waste of your time and will not lead you any closer to your murderous goal Mr. Criminal. Also you're wrong about Racism. Wrong. Very wrong. wrong wrong wrong wrong
Just because you can't accept the fact that my neighbour has dark skin, you start kicking off.
Live with it, just because he is black it doesn't make him any different to you or I. I mean the very fact that you're even questioning my..my, my..my my God, my tolerance is laughable.
Listen he's got just as much right to be here as anybody else, and there's nothing you, or anyone else like you can even to do make me or him feel any otherwise.
Wales does hate you, but aside from sport really can't be assed with you, as they basically live in the same country, but with cheaper education and free prescriptions
@asdfgwerzxcv6 Just because you're Welsh doesn't give you exclusive understanding of the country. I have been to Wales and met many Welsh people there and the majority of the people were anti English. This doesn't mean that ALL Welsh people are anti-English but neither does your opinion negate what I saw myself. Saying it was a 'British' not 'English' empire is a bit ridiculous, since when were the other participants in the Empire given equal rights until they rebelled or broke free?
People saying 'calm down he is a comedian he can say what he likes', Mitchell is not being comedic here, he's ranting. Being Irish, although I don't know if this video is referring to the Republic or not, I have never 'warmed to the English' either, they have a feeling of superiority that allows them to pick and choose their favourite part of their ridiculous 'Empire'. I am a fan of Mitchell normally though, and this video was pointless and ill informed, Welsh people are incredibly anti English
@ARETHA124 I'm sorry to point this out but I lived in Wales for ten years (with my English parents) and at no point during the ten years did anyone say anything remotely anti-English. Although I will admit that there are probably still some parts of Wales which still resent the English a little bit. Oh, and the 'Empire' was a British Empire, not just English, and has now been over for some years so that isn't really an argument against this nation now.
Being from Leeds, i've often said that The People's Republic of Yorkshire would be the best place in the world to live. We're so fiercely loyal; not to England, but to Yorkshire.
We're not bitter, it's just that Yorkshire seems to have grown detached from the rest of England (like Norfolk and the West Country) but we like where we live, so we stick by it.
Wales is also cool, but if you've ever heard the Stereophonics RUGBY SONG 'So Long as we Best the English', you'd have different views.
@SMuJ17 And you think Yorkshire is the only county with a strong cultural identity? Why stop there? Why not disband England entirely, and just have a lot of very small counties, on a very small island? Great plan.
@DefeatedElitist Hey, don't attack me because of my pride in being from Yorkshire. Let me spell something out for you, David Mitchell is JOKING, I am JOKING - it's a JOKE. Why don't we just find every bit of sarcasm on the internet and attack it until it leaves, huh? Great plan.
@SMuJ17 I'm not attacking your pride, so calm down. And where did you get the impression my comment was directed towards this video? I am fully aware he was joking. I was attacking the mindless stupidity that is regional nationalism.
@DefeatedElitist Yeah, but I clearly state I'm joking, you seem to miss that bit. And I love being from Yorkshire. If you were from around here (i'm guessing you're not) you'd understand this. And, with regards to your last statement, that looks a lot like attacking my pride at being a Yorkshireman, so you might wanna rephrase that before I even begin to consider that you ever to begin to probably that the minutest beginnings of an argument. Ciao.
@SMuJ17 No, you didn't clearly state that you were joking, which is what lead me to believe you were just another ignorant person preaching of independence for any county with a drop of culture. I see now that it wasn't the case, and I apologize.
Also, for argument's sake, I am from the West Country. A place I am very proud to call home.
I live in (and was born in) Aberdeen Scotland and come from an english family (and have spent long periods of my life in Halifax/Huddersfield etc) and although hes making a joke about the Scottish its completely true haha the rate of violence in scotland is ridiculous compared to that of england (from what i have expirienced anyway. Still proud to be Scottish though ;]
Historians have long believed the English & Southern Scots are of Germanic origin. The Cornish, Welsh & Highland Scots to be Celtic. Genetic finger printing suggests this is all wrong. There is very little genetic difference between any of the peoples of the archipelago all of who's closest genetic relatives are the Basque people. This means the Celtic language and cultures were imported form the Europeans Celts centuries ago with the Anglo Saxon culture and language arriving much later.
@binaway There's one thing though, it's known world wide that Welsh is the oldest language spoken today, i believe it is infact just one of the oldest languages, so i don't see how it would have been imported from Europe, if you would like to elaborate on what i just said, or i guess answer my question :3 feel free :)
@PuissantAlgernon were not right-wing at all. we let millions of scumbags from around the world into our once fine country every year and not only that and countless other reasons that disprove you youtube brand of expertise and petty intolerance but whenever another country has a war, disaster or economic meltdown it costs England more than it costs the shitty country wehave to bail out.
@swanyAJ - Thank you for demonstrating exactly the mentality I was talking about. If it weren't for sane places like Scotland, west Wales, and parts of the North your kind of attitude would be a majority and we'd be living in a xenophobic quasi-fascist state.
Edward I has a well-earned unfortunate reputation in Wales, what with his penchant for brutal conquests. But he's long dead and the huge and awesome castles he built remain.
I don't complain about the english and i'm from yorkshire, and as i don't understand the ideas of statistics, generalisations or comedy, i dislike this video. (psst, sarcasm)
I have to agree with David on the whole Yorkshire thing. But it's not that we're bitter. It's that we're better. Given the option to be our own country I think a lot of Yorkshire folk would take it.
@iamXSTEALTHZX Same situation mate. If incidents of Scottish on English prejudice was treated as seriously as White on Black racism they'd have to build a wall around Glasgow and turn it into a massive prison.
I just let them get on with it. Spend your lives bitter, I'm proud to be English :)
If he thinks the Welsh aren't petty and bitter towards England he's obviously never lived there. Plenty of small ex-mining towns you wouldn't dare open your mouth in for fear of being glassed for your English accent.
@pogolizard i'm english, i lived in Wales for 10 years. i was never glassed ( though i avoided pubs when England beat Wales in rugby ) and you are correct, Newport is a monumental shithole.

@timmeh7 Winston Churchill was in the Liberal Party in 1910/11, but your point was generally true.
blindlemon232 2 weeks ago
The reason no one votes for the Conservatives in Wales and Scotland has nothing to do with them being more liberal or left wing, it's because the Conservatives are seen very much as an English party more than a British one.
01000001011100100111 2 weeks ago
@01000001011100100111 Nope, in Wales at least it's because of what the conservatives did to the miners in 1910/11. There's far too much to cover in 500 words, but in essence, the Conservatives (specifically Winston Churchill) did some despicable things to people and as a result, Churchill and the Conservative party generally are still despised through much of South Wales. Look up "Tonypandy riots" for specifics.

@Timmeh7 there is more to it,successive english governments robbed wales of its mineral wealth throughout the 19th and 20th century.
wales once vital to the british economy has become the country england wishes would go away and die.conservative or labour ,the decisions come from london england .lloyd george or churchill it makes no difference .and today we have the assembly ,yes well as you say 500 words are not enough.how about 500 years.

@ralphcraddock I suppose I honed in on that especially because my grandfather was there as one of the miners, and relayed the events to me first hand, and it's still the one that people really talk about in the area I live in. Certainly voting Conservative has stigma. You're right though of course, the ways in which the English screwed the Welsh over the years are numerous.

Isn't it arrogant saying "I'm a little bit Welsh" when clearly if you were Welsh you'd be living there, and be part of the Welsh society. Your parents don't make you Welsh because they happen to be from Wales, your society you grow up in makes you the nationality you are. I got German ancestry on my grandmother side, but I'm not part German - I'm fully a westernised Swede. Think on that.

Ah, David Mitchell has a nice cozy South Wales experience of the Welsh. Being an Englishman living in North Wales is quite different, and involves a degree of being shouted at and occasionally punched for no other reason than having an English accent. I quite understand it (living here has cultivated comprehension) but believe me, in this particular case Mr Mitchell is...misinformed.

@asdfgwerzxcv6 Just because you're Welsh doesn't give you exclusive understanding of the country. I have been to Wales and met many Welsh people there and the majority of the people were anti English. This doesn't mean that ALL Welsh people are anti-English but neither does your opinion negate what I saw myself. Saying it was a 'British' not 'English' empire is a bit ridiculous, since when were the other participants in the Empire given equal rights until they rebelled or broke free?
ARETHA124 2 months ago
People saying 'calm down he is a comedian he can say what he likes', Mitchell is not being comedic here, he's ranting. Being Irish, although I don't know if this video is referring to the Republic or not, I have never 'warmed to the English' either, they have a feeling of superiority that allows them to pick and choose their favourite part of their ridiculous 'Empire'. I am a fan of Mitchell normally though, and this video was pointless and ill informed, Welsh people are incredibly anti English
ARETHA124 2 months ago
@ARETHA124 I'm sorry to point this out but I lived in Wales for ten years (with my English parents) and at no point during the ten years did anyone say anything remotely anti-English. Although I will admit that there are probably still some parts of Wales which still resent the English a little bit. Oh, and the 'Empire' was a British Empire, not just English, and has now been over for some years so that isn't really an argument against this nation now.
Other than that, enjoy his other videos :)

Historians have long believed the English & Southern Scots are of Germanic origin. The Cornish, Welsh & Highland Scots to be Celtic. Genetic finger printing suggests this is all wrong. There is very little genetic difference between any of the peoples of the archipelago all of who's closest genetic relatives are the Basque people. This means the Celtic language and cultures were imported form the Europeans Celts centuries ago with the Anglo Saxon culture and language arriving much later.
