Boris, I reckon you are probably the only person who noticed this was a Croatian Airlines plane. A bit sensitive maybe?

newsflash for Boris... you would have to be either a Croatian or a plane spotter to recognise the Croatian Airlines logo on the plane. What ever Boris thinks of Croatia and its airline, he should at least be aware that most British people couldn't care less about Croatia and all things Croatian. They don't dislike Croatia, they just don't think of it at all.

Southerners do not like Northerners, and vice versa. Firefly, there are Poles all over the UK, and Southerners seems to have a more negative attitude towards them than Northerners. The Poles up north are very friendly (like Northerners) and I can understand their language because I speak Croatian. To Croats - try the North instead of London for a change, the people are friendlier, life is cheaper and people will be nice to you. Londoners have got a sad habit of deliberately directing Northerners in the wrong direction. However, the North-South divide in the UK is absolutely nothing compared to Croats' stupid, racist irrational hatred of Serbs, which I for one can't abide.

I am jumping madly here, you do not have to be a train spotter to recognise Croatia Airlines airplane, if it says clearly on the plane "Croatia Airlines". You are not trying to say that the English can not read!
Please be fair when discussing a serious subject!!!

If the film clip had an aircraft with Croatia Airlines on it the clip must have been several years old. For some time now the aircraft have only had Croatia as the logo.

Graham, my respect, but whatever it was, it still gives impression that Croatia Airlines is the main culprit in global warming.

It seems to me that everyone arriving in England seeking asylum gets a free apartment, social security etc, no matter from where they come. I don't suppose anyone knew that Spanovic was a wanted criminal. Maybe they should known have but beaurocracy being what it is, bits of paper etc... This isn't reserved just for interpol ascapees, there are too many cases where known child sex offenders still get jobs in schools etc. It's just bad administration, something every country seems to have. No reason the hate the English, they are the same as everyone else. I note that asylum seekers rarely ask to stay in Scotland, is it that freedom is not so valuable if they have to live in a relatively colder climate? There's a lot of space in Iceland. I went to England in July, am disabled and I am English. But I got neither benefits nor a free flat, as I have lived in Croatia for the past 6 years. So you are 100% wrong. Hi pocket how are you and B? 'We are the winners' was the greatest Eurovision song of all time and should have won Have you returned to England now?

Croatia Airlines are crap - it doesn't matter how many times you phone, email or tell them you want a vegetarian meal (that's vegetarian, not vegan, aka VLML) you get a couple of wilting lettuce leaves and nothing more. They also seem to be under the impression that vegetarians don't like cakes, never mind cheese. My only consolation is Slobodan, their bloke at Heathrow, who lets me have a fag in the disabled toilets! By the way, why the hell don't the buses open their loos? Don't Croats ever need a wee?!

If Boris is correct and there is a plot against Croatia throughout UK society, then imagine the effort that the news team who did that story went to? First of all they would have had a meeting to discuss the stories for the news that evening, then assigned the teams to film and report the story. Then they would have had to go back through the stories to look for an opportunity to criticise Croatia. "Bingo! We can show a Cro Air jet landing at heathrow!" Then they'd have looked up the flight schedules and positioned themselves near the airport to catch that moment when a Cro Air jet lands. Given that there is a flight landing every couple of minutes, that would have taken quite a lot of effort. .....if any of that were true, then wouldn't Croatia be a much more important country that it really is?!

Poles and Slovaks (hard workers) Obviously you've been away from England quite a while. The public perception of Poles is changing fast. After it has transpired that "only" 600 000 Poles have invaded England since joining the EU, many of whom are claiming benefits for the children they've left back home in Poland, and generally seeing the UK as the milking cow, UK citizens are not warming up to Poles any more. They might be hard working, but they are also making things difficult for the native UK workers, as they are consistently lowering the wage treshold. Majority of Poles have racist views towards black UK population, the issue which has already been discussed on BBC, before anyone jumps down my throat on this one. The area of London I'm living in is absolutely swamped with Poles. They litter the roads and usually get drunk at the weekends, keeping the whole neighbourhood awake. I assure you they are not liked much in this part of Britain. Polish people are taking over, they are absolutley everywhere and there are now even more Polish supermarkets - people are getting annoyed in London ;D
