@sweetypie000 My grandparents were farmers, or land owners as you call them. They were anything but rich, just scraping by, and if there was a bad harvest, they had nothing to eat. Not exactly snobby and a great position to start life.
@sweetypie000 He didn't even know he was a descendant of Prince Paul of Württemberg, did you even watch this thing? Everyone thought his grandma was more or less a nutter for saying she came from French nobility! 8th cousin, wow. I don't even know who my 8th cousin is, could be famous, but I wouldn't have a clue.
You calling me blind is a right laugh. BTW, I didn't call you names once. That's what people resort to when they're out of arguments.
@StefSoleil you don't have to know who you were related too but you would have a good idea it wasn't a seamstress when you are living an affluent lifestyle and schooling at Oxford.
"You calling me blind is a right laugh. BTW, I didn't call you names once." ? wtf ? calling you names ? stupid moron :)
"That's what people resort to when they're out of arguments." exactly, that's just what you did
Right, enough of this. You are the kind of being I detest and I don't now reply too, you are too far gone in the brown nose department to have a clue.
You are pondlife that lives in the gutter whilst defending your betters. Bye Bye moron !
@sweetypie000 Oh sweetheart, you're just once again showing how jealous you are of people who you think have it better than you. And you're showing how little class and IQ you have by once again calling me names. Go ahead, keep feeling sorry for yourself and see where it gets you in life.
@sweetypie000 Go ahead and keep showing how little class and what a small vocabulary you have. Can't you think of better names to call me? Very disappointing. You are paying quite a bit of attention to me, darling, but unfortunately it's very boring. Blocking you now, bye bye.

Exactly. If you go back far enough, probably to Charlmagne, you'd find we are all related to each other. I was surprised to find Boris Johnson being related to the House of Württemburg as I'm distantly related also.
@Cwmbran1984 Hear hear. That's why I will never forget and forgive what happened in the early 20th Century where we obligirated each other for petty Nationalism. Europeans MUST unite, because we are all brothers and sisters...
ya boris johnson seems like a spectacular person. personable, someone with whom you can relate, bit of jokester, bold, intelligent, awesome stuff. I have no interest (nor that much knowledge of current pm) but would be awesome if Boris got it.
Hey there, currently I'm snowed under as of 28th of September 2007. I have little time to give a summary of myself. To -those who new me in the past, I still retain the mad inventor within me (although I don't believe in patents) I am in the proccess of applying for one now on my unique dredger. I am also fascinated with Sociology, Philosophy and 20th century History, and love cars and airsoft at the momment - Just ask me about it damn it!! I regard humility, honesty and helpfulness highly,

Well even the Turkish ancestry wasn't just some sheep hurdling peasent...he was a member of the Turkish ruling elites. And if you look at the old pictures of Ali Kemal then you can immediatly tell that he looks like a good old Byzantine man with White ancestry...

I love this programme. Its so interesting. My favourite one so far was with Jerry Springer. Really sad and i cried through out it. I also want to find out the name of the music played during the titles. Does anyone know it?
= so when gordon brown was grinning smugly 5 years ago about being the chancellor during economic growth, it was really nothing to do with him, and he knew it.
Boris is a refreshing change - surly by now, most of us see through the carefully choreographed Stalinism of Gordon Brown, and I hate to say it Tony Blair - who promise and cost us everything, and deliver nothing. Boris embodies some of the best of the traditional English traits: individualism; eccentricity; humor and creativity.
Me too! I love that he embraces it, and yet doesn't take himself too seriously. Legend. Still not convinced he's qualified to be running London though...
Yikes, I had thought this guy was a comedy character devised by some network, scruffy, silly voice, useless at talking (Sir Les Patterson style)...I then see him at the Beijing closing ceremony!! Sorry London, I live far away from you guys but you sure have a special one there! Best wishes...too funny!
Can you believe he is only 44? I thought he was in his 60's, when he walked (tripped and skipped) out at the Olympics. He is a walking stereoptype of what we non-poms believe that the upper class English are like. He looks like a member of the Raving Loony Party (this is a real party in the UK - and Englishness at its best/worst - not sure which lol)

SO...he comes from an inbred gene pool. No surprise there. This fool is an embarrassment to London. He was speaking to that German as if he was an idiot. He's been in office 3 months and had 2 holidays, had 3 deputy mayors that have all been sacked. Hes educated and erudite but completely stupid. This posh vicky pollard is an idiot.
gee thanks, that must be why we have a CONservative government then. Can't wait for the good old times to return: 18% interest rates, 12% inflation, 4m unemployed, the poorest country in the E.U., the I.R.A.....and Doris,Dave & George, the 3 Stooges running the show.
If you had any real understanding of economics you would know that what you said is daily mirror ball bags. Also you shall soon see again the consequences of 10 years under an inept labour government. What you need to understand is that the effect of government policies on the economy comes after (or towards the end in this case)or a political parties time in power.
meanwhile back on planet earth your 'grasp' of economics blames this capitalist Labour government for the current economic situation in the whole of the western world. What a genius. Dosey Dave with his no policies policy would have kick started the American economy I suppose. Go back to bed as you're delirious.
My 'grasp' of economics is a masters of science from one of the best universities in the world.I know that you have problems of a reading nature, but if you could understand me,'you shall soon see' does not equate too the blaming you afore mentioned, however what you will see, is an even worse crippling of our economy than what would have been necessary, I wont go into details, because there's no point battyboy,but the movement of large firms to Ireland is a prime example.
that would be the university of hicksville would it? and of course you wont go into detail. what would the tories have done different exactly? wasn't it thatcher that turned us into a service economy? and labour that shamefully continued along this path? economics, my arse!!!!
i sort of agree with you. he's a terrible example to represent England especially when he was at the Olympics. Scruffy,hands in pockets oddo, but he is bloody hilarious.
Boris is so funny i like the chap hes rather a good old bean , thumbs up to Boris best thing to happen to London England in the last 15 years he would be great as PM lol
He really is fantastic. I loved this episode of Who Do You Think You Are. His ancestry is absolutely fascinating!! Boris is so intelligent and funny, and he is no idiot, as so many people unfairly accuse him of being.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
A moron from the Conservative party who is more well known for his idiotic mistakes and general stupidity than his policies. The only reason he got in is because the country is in a current uproar against the Labour government and Ken Livinigstone's proposed tax increases and congestion charge rises within the city. Give it a couple of years for the initial hype of "OMG someone this stupid got in, this rules!" to die down and it will finally sink in what a braindead pillock he really is
