From yesterday's Daily Telegraph:


Illegal immigrants sneak into Britain in Bernie Ecclestone's F1 convoy

A group of illegal immigrants sneaked into Britain by hiding in Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone's convoy returning from the Monaco Grand Prix.

The lorry drivers were oblivious to the stowaways hiding in one of their big TV trucks which carried them across the Channel until they arrived at their depot in England.

The immigrants were arrested shortly after being discovered at Biggin Hill Airport in Kent, where Ecclestone's Formula One Management (FOM) company is based.

Not as bad as Vic Lee though it wouldn't surprise me if Bernie was reallyinvolved in the black economy.

I'm sure they were just a band of mischievous gypsies! :)

The found Monaco wasn't good enough so they'd give Kent a try?

Hey. Monaco may have glamourous bars, casinos and hotels; but we've got Bluewater, Margate, and a two (count them!) cathedrals. I know where I'd rather be...

...oh.

Oi, don't forget the one way system in Dartford - where every budding future F1 wannabe drives his chavved up Saxo at giddy speeds with a spotty 14 year old girl in the passenger seat!!!!! :D
