Ignorant bastards piss me off!.
Me too.
So why post it in this thread?
Ah,that makes sense now.....Because I have no doubt in my mind that it was down to his race and the fact he was dressed in a Muslim style outfit.
So you have just claimed 3 separate people are racist despite no proof of racism, that just sounds like a normal day in London, im always helping out people who are lost while others ignore themBecause I have no doubt in my mind that it was down to his race and the fact he was dressed in a Muslim style outfit.

That's my attitude too. I take people as i find them and find it easy to look beyond skin colour/religious beliefs, there it's still a human under there and as much as i have friends and worked with people of all races, I've known dickheads of all races too.Why do people care about what colour someone's skin is or where they were born? I genuinely don't get it. If your a good bloke I'll get on with you, if your a knob head I won't - why does race/religion come into it?
Some idiots in the UK need to remember our history. We colonized countries all over the world. British culture is diverse by nature & that's what I think makes us unique. Those two idiots on the met can be deported to wherever for all I care.
Seen some fucking tits in work today wearing safety pins on their lapels. Asked why, and they told me it was a Facebook campaign to show that they weren't racist. Fucking stupid cunts, and yes I did say it. I told them that they shouldn't need to advertise that they aren't racist, and if they felt the need to advertise it then maybe they need to go away and have a chat to themselves.
I'm calling bollocks on half the stuff posted and talked about. People are either making shit up, or mistaking pig ignorance with racism. People walking past some bloke in a train station? Yeah right, not like it doesn't fucking happen anyway. I heard the teachers unions saying that racism in the playground was on the rise after the referendum result - one fucking day after it! Utter bullshit from organisations that make Corbyn appear right wing.
Far from the country being over ridden with racists, it's over ridden by fucking hysterical nutters who voted Remain and are now wishing for the country to go into a financial and social fucking meltdown just so they can say 'I told you'. Grow the fuck up.
Absolutely no idea, as I didn't enquire to much farther. All I got was it was something to do with Facebook and showing that you weren't racist. Fucking ridiculous.Nice one Malg, and I know I'm a bit slow, but why the fuck safety pins?

Hahaha.....very good.It does happen though mate.
Visit a primary school on Blackburn or Burnley, and the kids have picked stuff up from their parents and repeat it on the playground. 'You're going to be sent home!' does get said (and worse).
All of that said, kids say stuff regardless. Your mum / dad is fat, you're poor, you're rich / too tall / too short - they say stuff. Is it racist? I dunno, I suppose technically it is, but I'm not sure kids have fully picked up on that yet - it depends on the age.
If my child was Polish or Pakistani, I'd not expect the staff to turn a blind eye, I want it stopped. Then I'd be having words with my wife about how we've got a Polish or Pakistani child!
Hahaha.....very good.
I've no doubt some of it is going on, however there just appears to be some over hysterical nonsense being reported.
Very well said Malg.Seen some fucking tits in work today wearing safety pins on their lapels. Asked why, and they told me it was a Facebook campaign to show that they weren't racist.

1) Touch wood I do.
2) Speaking from a more external view, I was just noting that the press here, being further removed the debate then the UK press are, were highlighting the racial aspects of the leave campaign. By virtue of having 'less of a dog in the fight' their coverage, it could be argued, would be more objective and I found it interesting that they still focused on these aspects.
3) As far as I understand it's not against the law to tell some to be quiet and not racially abuse someone, which a lot of the people on that tram were not doing.
4) I'm not arguing Australia is a model of tolerance, and I gave plenty of examples where it's not (my own parents, and the racially tinged politicking). However having traveled a bit, from my experience, it is more tolerant then most, yet there is still the undercurrent of racism.
5) I never said that they weren't.
6) The reason i'm doing this move is exactly because things have changed. 12 months back had my life mapped out, yet the slate was wiped clean with a relationship breakdown. This is a chance to take a bit of a risk, chance my arm, and see what happens. Worst case scenario I can't find any decent work and give myself an extended holiday.
7) Having read through this entire thread I felt that there were some who were taking great umbrage at being grouped with the fringe and minority racist leave voters. I am the first to admit that generalising all for the actions/belief of a few is completely unfair, but by the same token, to express incredulity that some might, is naive. Especially, as has been pointed out, much of the coverage on the leave campaign was focused on racial/anti immigration lines.
Well said.Seen some fucking tits in work today wearing safety pins on their lapels. Asked why, and they told me it was a Facebook campaign to show that they weren't racist.

Okay fuck off then and there immigration rules are?Australia is so so so much better than the UK. I am seriously contemplating going back if I can, after the Brexit result. Been 3 times and did the years working holiday in Brisbane. Then spent 10 years studying to get enough qualifications to get in. I am mortgaged up now but thats the only commitment I have. For the life of me I can not understand anyone leaving Australia to come here.
