Football love rat Ryan Giggs is tarnishing the image of his native Wales, said campaigners yesterday.
MP Ron Bonkers fumed: “We’ve spent decades carefully building up a comedy image of Welsh people as a bunch of secretive sheep-shaggers, and now Ryan Giggs goes and blows it by carrying on like a cross between Tiger Woods and Sid James.”
Welsh Tourist Board chief Doris Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch revealed jokes poking fun at Welshmen are already flooding the internet.
She said: “One example I’ve read was this: ‘what does a Welsh farmer call a field full of girls? A leisure park’. It’s disgusting.”
Supporters of the Welsh soccer team are steeling themselves for opposing chants like “You’re just a bunch of girl-shaggers.”
Welsh First Minister Carwyn Jones said the Welsh Assembly would take immediate action to repair what he called “this terrible damage to our collective image”.
“First and foremost,” he said, “I would like to clarify once and for all any argument about Welsh intellect by making it clear that I like blinking, I do.
“Secondly, the Assembly is going to sponsor a headline-grabbing new TV reality show called Ewe’ve Got Talent, in which Simon Cowell will be joined by Shaun the Sheep on the judging panel.
“And thirdly, each member of the Welsh Assembly will give a direct personal undertaking to take out a super-injunction banning reporting of any affairs they may have had with gorgeous, soft, fluffy-fleeced sheep, thereby ensuring that the correct way for Welsh folk to conduct their sex lives gets maximum publicity all over the world.”
