Ah! How refreshing, yet another crackpot report from an organisation that nobody ever heard of.

Considering that London has.....

More French restraunts than any city except Paris
More Indian restraunts than any city except Delhi
More Italian restraunts than any city except Rome
More "middle eastern" than just about anywhere
More Art galleries than any city except Florence (just threw that one in- and they're free)
More Chineese than Hong Kong
More Kebab houses than Athens and Istanbul put together
etc, etc, our kids are pretty much open to foreign cultures and are much more likely to say "YUK" to green vegetables than anything else.

This is classic PC Bullshit from a bunch of tossers with nothing better to do.

London is a very Disverse place , ussually its spot the englishman , they thinking everything is about race , not about the person ...Fine example

I was outside having a ciggerette , and speaking to Dannielle on the fone , i then finished my ciggerette and hang up i start to walk back  , and theres these double doors that i have to walk into the mall , to get back to my shop, and these 2 black dudes walked straight infront of me , i mean , as i walked into the door they walked and stopped straight infront of me ,. First i was polite ,*excuse me *  and asked them to move , they didnt , i squared up to one of them, and said move louder , in the end , i just pushed him straight out of my way , And he tryed to act the big man infront of these girls , i just walked into my shop ....

Because he was black , i could of got done for racial something, if he was white , it would have been nothing , how fair is that? .


He was lucky i was in work clothes or i would off punched him


There was no need what so ever

does that make you a racist? 

[Kasumi]

Funniest thing i saw was at school, one black dude during a verbal argument (- PCness) called another black dude a "black" among other racial slurs. The response he recieved instantly was "(insert swear words) racist"

This raises some interesting points...and also some further points.

1. Can you be a racist if your the same race as someone? (allbeit they arn't completely thick)
2. In response to a racists comment the second guy replied so quickly by calling them a racist - did they not even think about who they were arguing with - does this raise the point that in society today racism has become an "excuse" to get others into more serious trouble - i.e fighting white on black and the black acusing the white of being a racist like Jay said would get the white guy in serious shaZam!.
3.  Why has racism expanded from being related directly to race. i.e. insulting someone due to colour is clearly racist however picking on someone who is off that colour but not because of their colour is now also seen as racist. Meaning that a white person and black person couldn't have a fair fight because the white person is racist for attacking a black person.
4. Why is it only one way. I have often been called a white c@%t by a black person, thats racist but actually it isnt is it because the black person wouldn't be in trouble for being racist by making sweeping statements about my colour. - One of the things that really pisses me off.

Slightly related is another point, do you think countries like the UK and many others around the world are afraid to adopt their own policies on things like racism, immigrants, all sorts of PC issues because of what other countries might believe of them?

I ask this because countries like australia have strict restrictions on who they will let into their country, the people they let in and the things they do and don't let happen in their country are all in place to build a better country and if you go to australia and see the people living their they are all "Australian" - i shall explain. Here in the UK we claim to have strict rules on who comes in and what happens in the country but really we dont. Our government lets itself be influenced too much by the USA, EU, UN, other organisations. Such as a group of people come to this country and make their bit of it their own. Schools which will only allow Muslims in but at the same time forcing rules through which make it so no other school can adopt similar polcies or they are against that religion. Thousands of new houses being built just to house illegal immigrants yet homeless people already in the country are provided with nothing. I mean im attempting to sum up a huge issue but im sure you can all see what im getting at. You couldn't come to the UK and say everyone is somewhat British because our country is not that at all. It is over influenced by everyone in the world with a weak government. I am by no means a racists and do welcome people from all walks of life however when these people from all walks of life come to a country they shouldn't try and restrict my life, force through policies to gain for themselves whilst not actually providing anything positive to the country. This is the governments fault, they should look to places like Australia which do things for the better of their country rather than letting themselves be walked all over by people who have come to this country to do nothing other than make it their own and provide no benefit to us at all.
