Ooh, an interesting one for this little island kid!
Ok, so what makes Guernsey (a self governing body, but not a country) better then all other countries?
Well, the fact that it is a 25 mile squared island to start with, so we often have on the front page of our newspaper "TEA PARTY FOR VERY OLD LADY!"
Or! "CAT FOUND DEAD! OWNERS BAFFLED!" Our island is fairly safe for the most part... i say most part though.
Not to mention we are a tax haven, so we can sit around all day and pay very little in the way of council tax, no product tax (VAT) and nearly no other taxes too! Wahey! Which also means we get loads of very rich people from all over the world constantly willing to pump extra cash into our economy.
We still have POUND NOTES! These bloody coins drive me CRAZY!
For such a small island, we have a lot of rock music!
Ok.. should other countries change their ways...
Well, in a lot of instances YES, but not to be like Guernsey. I'd be worried if the US stated one day "Yeah so we are going to like.. downsize... to 25 miles squared.. yuh..."
And whats bad about it.
Corruption! A government that was voted in by IDIOTS in Guernsey quite blatantly, as they voted for a man who pretty much STATED he wants to be a dictator. "I WANT TO BE IN CHARGE OF NEARLY EVERY ASPECT OF THE ISLAND, AND TO HAVE FIVE OTHER PEOPLE UNDERNEATH ME TO SAY YES OR NO TO MY DECISIONS, BUT I WANT TO CHOOSE WHO THEY ARE".... riiiiiight... you go ahead and do that and watch me leave and never come back. Also, dont forget the amount of bribery from Tom Scott, islands biggest turd! He owns every major shopping outlet in Guernsey, and Jersey as well! Pretty much putting a monopoly on the food industry. However it did inspire all the other national companies to come in with more force, and start making money off our boycott of the stupid fat idiot. Not to mention he has very outdated, archaic working practices. Making work in the island VERY awkward and pretty horrible. He also owns or controls most of the building industry, property market, and much more. Argh.
Also, we have the chavs!!!! A bunch of idiot kids who think they are GANGSTERS! On a 25 MILES SQUARED ISLAND!
THERE IS NO GHETTO IN GUERNSEY! FOR GODS SAKE! YOU IDIOTS! THE COUNCIL HOUSES ARE LIKE PARADISE!
Whats especially funny is to see them driving around in several grands worth of souped up car thats been mangled several times, and then REPAIRED FULLY again (you can still see where they crashed mind you) and they STILL act like ghetto gangsters! If you have parents.. who buy you souped up cars.. you arent a gangster. Now go and work in a bank you spoiled fool!
Argh, i could turn this into a rant about guernsey so easy. But i will stop now
