‘Punching a hole in the canoe’ is upper class slang for anal sex with a fag or other minor.
Nice use of the word "fag" there, I'm sure they're great people though......
Nah, he'd get clobbered by pimms glasses if he tried that there - the river's easily narrow enough to reach 🙂
(can't actually access the link but I don't suppose it's too hard to imagine)
'Fag' as used there isn't the US slang for gay but rather for a younger kid at boarding school who act as servants of a sort for the older kids. I suspect that this is a rather 1940s view of what actually goes on though. (My granddad still reminisces about his days as a fag...)

I expect he was referring to the public school tradition of bullying a new boy into becoming a slave, known as a fag.
Disrupting Henley would be a wonderful shot across the bows of the elite if it weren't for all the working class (open membership) rowing clubs that compete there.
One is shootining oneself in the foot, I believe.
What a shower of chuggers.
Well, despite loving the race itself, I've never really liked Henley much as an event - too full of socialites, social climbers and wannabes. For me, it's two separate events - the one in the Stewards enclosure and the rest. The former bad, the latter great.
Disruption to the Stewards I wouldn't really encourage but wouldn't be that fussed about. Disruption to the rest would be ignorant.
What do they actually hope to achieve by disrupting Henley? Do they really think that the rich will see a couple of boat races disrupted and suddenly give all of their wealth to the poor?
This seems like a really bad idea as it's cheapening the real message about the huge divide between poor and rich 🙄
..As you'd probably figured out, I am not aware of the inner workings of private education. I still don't like the "class war" nobbers though. Imagine the toffs streaking across a tranmere vs everton game.....
Good job they're keeping their wacky stunt ideas quiet and not publishing to a wider audience, the fiends!

With a Purdey I assume.
EAT THE RICH (after marinating them in Thames water for a bit)
