Daily Telegraph screen grab showing alien declaration

Quite what those from beyond the stars are trying to say we know not, but iiiiiii for one welcome our new linguistic overlords. ®

Thanks to Tim Cuthill for the tip-off. Or rather, as he will be known when he's toiling for the Lizard Alliance in the hellish killer Renault Laguna works, ta very much to Tiiiiim Cuthiiiiiil.
