[Panel 1]
[Nils]
Well, that's a relief.

Our independent racist loony
candidate got twelve votes.

Even in Limehouse that
doesn't get him a seat.

[Ginny]
Which flavour of
racist loony?

[Nils]
Oh, "I was born in Limehouse
of British parents and have
no foreign ancestry".

[Panel 2]
[Ginny]
In LIMEHOUSE? Port of the
Empire? Lascars and Chinamen
and God knows what?

[Nils]
It gets better. He wants to
send all the filthy foreigners
back "home", basically.

And if South Africa did the
same thing, that would leave
me half-way between Denmark
and the Netherlands.

[Panel 3]
[Jaakko]
Schleswig-Holstein, more or less.

Good beer round there.

I of course would have to return
to northern Ostrobothnia, but
they would never notice that
I was telecommuting.

[Nils]
Except nobody would be
falling over your bloody
bike in the changing-room.

[Panel 4]
[Jaakko]
Sorry. What about you, Ginny?
You're probably the sort of
person he was trying to appeal to...

[Ginny]
Except that I
can walk without
dragging my knuckles.

Anyway, it's not as if
anyone's been here for more
than a few thousand years.

My lot would have to go
back to... Frisia, probably.
Or possibly Jutland.
