I caught this little exchange on the BBC World service this morning between my favourite BBC interviewer Owen Bennett Jones and a spokesperson for the Zimbabwaen government
Spokesperson This is why we don't talk to BBC my dear, you twist things and lie (this coming from one of the most corrupt regimes on earth), Zimbabwean's who leave and go to your country my dear, leave to become British bottom cleaners, taking jobs the British don't want, and cleaning the bottoms of white British in retirement homes"
OB Jones 2 million of your people have left over the past few years, that's an awful lot of bottoms, don't you think?
Spokesperson You see my dear, this is why we do not talk to the BBC.
Brightened my morning D
