So basically everything BorisJohnson stands against (The EU and migrants). Why even have a referendum?🤣

Do they wear masks when they f*ck? They should....

You 'forget' to mention that they are Turkish. I was born and raised in Holland but I am definately Turkish! If Turks do something bad you say Turkish but when a TURK is successfull you never mention their real background?!!

Hey give me 20 bucks!

Why didn’t you put the word ‘Turkish’ anywhere? Does it hurt you that a Turkish couple is successful?

Helped? Biontech made it...
