> I know I do object to the phrases "bl**dy p*m", or the common "bas***d p*m"..

Fair enough.

>Mainly because the people they're most likely used by are the millions of aussies that live in my area, that constantly moan about how awful London is, how horrible it is, how awful our laws are etc etc, yet come and live over here for 2 years or more, use our free health service, take all the bar / waitressing jobs (normally cash in hand so paying no tax or anything) yet still spend half their time slagging the country off.. THAT gets on my wick!!

Fair enough!
You know, apparantly the most common is / was 'whinging p*m'. Apparantly the immigrants or pomegranates or whatever used to whine a lot...

So that is really funny that people whine about the whinging p*ms!!!!!

I have never heard the expression used in a derogatory manner. More like 'who are we playing in the Rugby this weekend?' - 'The p*ms'. Just used to refer to British peoples the way 'kiwi' and 'aussie' refer to NZers and Australians respectively.

I was quite suprised to find out it had derogatory undertones...
