Many of them have deteriorated into pom-bashing....bordering on all out racism - just because this guy happens to be English.
All I can say is that there are some real bad losers out there and people who need to get a grip on life. (I think the headline reporting increased home-violence is indicative of that fact). This behaviour isn't unique to NZ of course but I thought we were better than that in this country. :)

How about the Rainbow Warrior? I'm no Greenie, but I haven't knowingly bought any French product since that disgusting episode.

Not that they manufacture much that we could afford actually.

Isn't that a bit like the yanks trying to rename French Fries as Freedom Fries?

I mean,, you have to separate out the actions of a government from the actions of its people. Why hold a grudge against French producers decades later?

Fair enough. Personally, I've forgiven the French. I mean if you were going to boycott a country based on their nefarious deeds, there are a few other better candidates ...
