What a bunch of freeloading party goers with an inbred sense of self entitlement, self worth and self importance. Harry may be able to fly but he took the place of someone qualified by dint of hard work and application, not birth.

We need an alternative to these inbreeds and it isn't the likes of the Dalai Jezza, His Most Obsequiousness Tony the Bliar, Pisletine or Kinocchio.
I think you'll find that the Herk was in fact a BAe 146. It hit the sand on one of the Scottish Islands.
Hope it helps
Be lucky
