Orwell Diaries 1931- 1949
Edited by Peter Davison, Publ: Harvil Secker
ISBN 9781846553295

ROMANIA VAZUTA DE LA LONDRA – problema copiilor Abandonati
ROMANII – RUDELE SARACE ALE EUROPEI:
Sunt cam deprimat de cand, pe canalele englezesti ale televiziuniii, tot ce se discuta este despre valul iminent de imigranti romani si bulgari care ar incerca sa vina sa lucreze in Marea Britanie odata cu noua extindere a UE.
