A Tory, a worker and an immigrant are sat round a table. There's a plate of 10 biscuits in the middle. The Tory takes 9 then turns to the worker and says "that immigrant is trying to steal your biscuit"

The film of ' when the wind blows' had great music by David Bowie as well if I remember and class voice acting by British film greats.
