Kicking off in Leicester

[Mr Kobayashi]

Bullshit and blinkered

He's unwinding. A very angry and bitter man.

Should do what the Dutch do. Find them a suitable field, direct them to it and then let them get on with it.

Bullshit and blinkered

It's a view point and an opinion.
It doesn't mean its bullshit and blinkered
for the simple reason you disagree with it
or see it different. That's bigotry.

Maybe....but there us also truth in what i wrote,no matter how many of you want to ignore the issue or pretend otherwise.

What’s it matter to you if Afzal from Longsight supports Pakistan because his parents came from there?

Fuck you on about. It’s my opinion it was bullshit and blinkered.

Can I ask then, is it a viewpoint and opinion you agree with? You are born in England so you support England?

Isn’t it that if you are born in a country, you must support that country, rather than being able to choose who you want to support?

There’s the bigotry.

We are into complex issues of identity here and I imagine that many born in England do not identify, in the first instance, as English. I certainly know of many Scots, Welsh and Irish that were born in England who identify as being Welsh, Scots or Irish before English. I know of many people who identify themselves as British Arab or British Pakistani too. Your place of birth is often not necessarily how you identify or who you feel you are.

In this particular case, it appears that the fighting has some basis in religion, which transcends national boundary anyway.

You only have to look at the sectarian trouble in The North because of the separate histories of it’s citizenship.
Given your colonial past, the whole of Britain has a varied ethnic and religious history but inequality and division seems to be ingrained in your psyche. Even down to football tribalism, it breaks down to what makes you different rather than what makes you the same.

It’s only a personal opinion and none of my business really but do think you need to separate church and state from your constitution.
That alone is sectarian.

It’s an utterly ridiculous notion

Bye

Brilliant:-)

The vast majority support the country of their birth,as you know.

That isnt the case with Pakistani or Indian heritage,as you know.

Apparently there's some Norwegian fella we all like who was born in Leeds
