The original list was a joke.... I mean SS Windrush????

If the whallies that originally produced the list thought they should put in an icon from ethnic England, then I don't think any one of them has been out for a few scoops on a Friday night....

The itinery goes as follows - Go out to pub, get pissed on Stella.
Pubs shut.
Go and have a CURRY.

The curry is a national obsession in England, we've taken it and made it better. We've introduced Balti, etc and really taken it to a whole new level....

But the arses at ICON HQ wouldn't know jack about that.... tossers.

I mean, SS Windrush for God's sake!!!!!

I tell you what Wonko, it's bloody great to see the the list by popularity, 1 Fox Hunting, 2 Morris Dancing........ even the flag of Satan, (the flag that will see NuLabour off) - the good old St George's Flag is in the top ten.....

Surely, SURELY, these utter tossers cannot fart in the face of the English popular vote......

can they?

Democracy New Labour style.

If we do not get the results we want we ignore it.

Nice to see real icons of England on the icon site though.

How the hell can it have cost a million quid. I could knock together a better site for 10k.

Typical government overspend.

Not only that - it is absolutely shite on Macs. All the info is shoved over to the right..... Right off the page.

Oh, and the cost of the site is as follows -

To cost of site - £10,000 (and it doesn't even work on macs properly)

To cost of hiring p.c. obsessed arses to choose which icons are worthy, £990,000.
