A new Pakistani immigrant arrives in Bradford with his family. He is thrilled to be here.
Early next morning, after he has settled in to his house, he goes out for a walk to explore his new surroundings. He meets a man walking along the street.
"Good day Mr Englishman" he says "I most readily want to thank you for letting me and my family live in your very nice country and......."
The man interrupts "I'm not an Englishman, I'm an Arab from Jordan"
The Pakistani continues on his way and encounters another pedestrian
"Good day Mr Englishman, thank you for letting my family live in your country and...."
He is again interrupted "I no Englishman, me is Turkish"
The Pakistani continues on his way and meets another man walking towards him
"Oh Mr Englishman, thank you........."
He is interrupted once more by the man who says "Hey brother, I aint no Englishman, I'se from Jamacia"
He walks a little further and sees another man
"Mr Englishman, thank you for letting me come to your beautiful country"
The man looks at him and says "I'm not English, I'm Polish"
"But" says the very confused and distressed Pakistani "where are all the Englishmen ?"
The Polish guy stretches his wrist, checks his watch, and says
"Well they must all be at work by now"
