Well of course odds of millions and millions to one to overcome first,
but even then eight Scousers all working and with jobs in Liverpool,
what are the astronomical odds on that?

Why assume they're native Scousers?

They're probably Polish,

Ahhh...but it would be wrong and terribly racist to insult immigrants.
Scousers are indiginous, so it's ok.

I didn't know that Scousers were a different race to the rest of us. It
does explain a few things though...

No I wasnt. I was being sarcastic by saying, 'it would be wrong and terribly
racist to insult immigrants, but Scousers are indiginous, so it's ok'. At
no point did I imply that Scousers were a race.
