Step 1: Terrorize the population







"Dirty old Blighty. Undereducated, economically backward, bizarre. A catalog of modern miseries, with its fake traditions, its Irish war, its militarism and secrecy, its silly old judges, its hatred of intellectuals, its ill health and bad food, its sexual repression, its hypocrisy and racism, and its indolence. It's so exotic, so . . . homemade."

A particularly stirring outtake from Patrick Keillier's "London" (BFI, 1992)
