"Ranked second in England and Wales once different spellings included"

 

:lol: :lol:

 

Relentless. But why do people act surprised? It's what they do..

 

In reality everyone knows this means absolutely nothing. It just proves the amount of names there are in the countries mentioned. Asians/Africans don't even make up 1/4 of the population. I swear they don't even account for a an 8th of the population of England and Wales combined?

 

Ridiculous nonsense. But it's what keeps a huge part of the country entertained.
