Yet another reason to boycott the National Lottery
Ken Loach's love letter to the "Bold Fenian Men", The Wind that Shakes the Barley turns out to have been part financed by the National Lottery. How does he find the nerve to accept money from it?
This is the delightful man I saw quoted in a French magazine (I've translated from the original) thus: "I don't know why is it called Great Britain, it is just a small island off the coast of *France*". I wonder if the French would care to fund his next venture, or better still take him off our hands completely.
