Thousands Of Black Europeans Flooding In During The Early Winter And Bullying Locals Out Of Their Natural Habitat.

Just heard this on Tweet of the day on Radio 4. Can nothing be done to stop this alien influx of European Blackbirds?

[sandyRoe]

You can hear for yourself here. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b03k21n6#auto

Oh the feathered variety....was worried there for a moment !

[Tilly2]

Are they blacker and bigger? There are some real bruisers in my garden.

[sandyRoe]

They probably are the European ones if they're noticeably bigger.

[mikey4444]

UKIP will sort them out, when they win the next Election !

[sandyRoe]

That same thought was in the back of my mind. Farage will probably have an answer to this.

[melv16]

I've got some over-staying migrants in my garden....a male & female blackcap, they should be in Africa! Should I inform the home office?

[sandyRoe]

Leave well alone. You'd only have to explain what you were doing sheltering aliens.

[tamborine]

Gun shots were fired at 7pm yesterday.....cant see the usual magpies & pigeons. Someone is firing up the trees, no dead birds or feathers either.

Is this possible?

This thread is not about UKIP, mikey

How many times must you tell yourself to try and stay 'on topic'?

[sandyRoe]

Oh, I don't know. If UKIP promised in their manifesto to do something about this they might garner a few more votes.

[mikey4444]

Sandy....I seem to remember that in their 2010 manifesto, they featured policies that were even dafter ! What would we do for laughs without Mr Farage !

[Baldric]

You should have Tweeted this Sandy!

[stuey]

You'll just have to make bigger pie shells in order to accommodate them, won't you?

[ichkeria]

It's an invasion via Africa apparently

[sandyRoe]

They're not even Europeans? If that's ^ true there'll be some here apoplectic

[stuey]

...or perhaps use fewer birds than what the original recipe calls for.

[mikey4444]

Stuey...I always, even as a boy, thought that four and twenty was a tad on the generous size for just one pie !

[stuey]

But not as big as Desperate Dan's favourite dish, Mikey.
