BobOfRoth Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Hitler would have been proud. From the Telegraph online....... Do you like sushi? Stop touching my hair! Why are you frying a banana?

Or actions in response to requests from people on the receiving end. I'm guessing that the Daily Telegraph managed to pick out the juiciest sound bites from whoever it interviewed.
