  1. He tore into me because i was having a different point of view
    You need to unleash your power to lift that weight
    Finding a decent job hinges on your qualifications

  2. Shan is a poetic beauty. I have been distracted throughot the video looking shan. What a beautiful girl!

  3. The people on this article talk simpleton, like Bungle talking to 5 year olds, as if we don't understand the word 'unleashed, and 'tear' This is titled raided by the FBVI and suddenly its two not so intelligent people talking patronizingly about the meaning of words and its contexts.. WTF. misleading title. Neil you remind me of Bungle who bungled with kids in the tv show rainbow, and got fired for pedophilia. That was of course also the racist right wing BBC too

  4. tRump's home was never "raided". Get your lies straight. it was searched via an approved court order, and if he returned all the docs when asked, and later subpoenaed it would not have been searched.

  6. Wow l love this video very easy to understand

  7. Unleash- release

    Neil maybe you should learn Vietnamese to understand my feeling when I took into Literature lesson. Vietnamese has so many words that have same spelling and pronunciation but it's meaning is very differrent

  23. If you are wanting to learn then the last place you should come is the lying, corrupt, partisan, BBC. They don't inform, they indoctrinate.

  24. In 1982 Pink Floyd's "The Wall" movie came out. From the time period of about 1:16:01 to 1:24:50 you'll see what Donald Trump wants to be in real life today. A perfect example of Donald Trump. It's all about him, no one else. He wants to rule with a strong fist. The wall is going to crush Trump.

  25. Referendum on Immigration, Nigel !

  26. Why is the BBC smiling?

  27. The BBC has always hated Pres.Trump and has never said a good word about him and do you know why ? The BBC has always been extra special friends with Hillary Clinton . They have always smeared Donald Trump and repeated lies about him that were told by the Democrats , in fact the BBC has always got all their political information about the U.S. from the Democrat Party . And what's the betting that they delete this post of mine !

  28. Sian is gorgeous 😍😍!!!!! and is the best match for Neil😬👌 for this program

    Unleash tear into hinges on

  30. What kind of stupid video is this

  31. Sian, finally you are back! I'm so happy about that! I haven't seen you so long. You are the best teacher I've ever had. Please never disappear from my screen! 😍I'm enjoying watching you! Thank you!

  32. former president just wants some attention

  33. It wasn't a raid.

  34. I recently listened to a podcast and they said: "I am tearing into some Chinese takeout today for the sake of science". I guess "tear into" means here like opening a packet with a lot of emotion.
    Also, I've heard the word unhinged, which means something similar to crazy. It reminds me in Spanish we say that someone who's crazy lacks a bolt (screw) maybe it's a screw in a hinge.

  35. I love you so much and when I can't see you I feel that I'm missing a big part of my day. Love u bbc learning English ❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

  36. 😼👍👏

  37. Bbc and truth xD

  38. Neil tearing into English language was perfect! I'll never for forget the diference between tear into and tear! 😂😂😂

  39. It won’t resonate because our Coprolite in Chief doesn’t understand a word of it. He’s now hiding from another ill-conceived raid on a private home. This time, he struck violently at a U.S. President. Pundits say they better find a really big crime or face a colossal backfire.

    not only footballer tear into the referee but also fans and supporters tear into the unfortunate person.
    My lifestyle hinges on my income

  41. Thanks

  42. It all hin​ges on your effort. If you fail, you should not tear into your opponent. Control your anger and don't  unleash your violence.
