[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.
