[_Lee_]

Is it just me or is this one of those video's that wasn't designed to funny but as a by product is hilarious?

I watched that earlier...had me laughing out loud! The awkward silence followed by a grin when DR is asked if Britain could have a black PM is brilliant

Brilliant.

[Marf]

I watched this last night on BBC2, had me in stitches.

The Pax-Man: Do you believe in political parties?
Dizzee Rascal: Yeah man they exist, they're out there.

[Tycho]

The full interview is even better:

Look @ 40 seconds in to see what Marf is talking about.

I saw this last night.

Fair play to the guy , with all this political waffle over the last few days it was good to get the Sarf London view.

There is no such word as can't.

What a mongruel

[Pickled Piper]

Respect to the Rascal. Paxo tried to patronise him and it didn't work.

i was laughing at the posh white bloke.

Despite his odd dialect he essentially seemed to be talking sense and made Paxman look a little silly with his political parties comeback.

Wasn't Genghis Khan a mongruel?


By the way, Dizzy Rascal, Bedford Rascal - any relation?

Paxman: Dizzee, do you consider yourself British?
Rascal: Yeah man, you know me!

Get in Dizzee! Agree with alot of what he said to be fair, even if it was spoken "hip-hop".

[off_again]

I was saying to the wife the other day that Dizzee is a clever chap - he has done very well with his own brand of music etc. However, happy to take that all back - bloody plonker.

[silverback mike]

I don't fall out with anything he said really, seemed quite sensible to me.

[Celt]

I think it just showed some of the pretenciousness surrounding poilitics.

Really? I thought he came across pretty well.

Very Sarf Lahndan the way he said it, but agreed with what he was saying, in the main.
