  1. Fair enough , so you would support England if they were playing against Argentina in a Football World Cup final . Nice to have your support
  2. Great excuse NOT to answer . Agreeing with my statement will show that you are a racist, disagreeing with my statement will show that you aren't being honest, so your only only option is to not answer
  3. "No true Irishman would support England in a World Cup final if they were playing against Scotland " Do you regard that as a true statement or a racist statement ?
  4. Do you agree with the list or not , or does the list just apply to other people ? Yes, some racist people do make statements from the list , but also non racist people make statements from the list , meaning that the list doesn't prove a person is racist
  5. Alix Culbertson, political reporter - 1h ago Majority of Tory party members want Truss to resign now - and know who they want as replacement The majority of Conservative Party members want Liz Truss to resign now - just six weeks after voting her in - and their preferred replacement is Boris Johnson, a new poll has found. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/majority-of-tory-party-members-want-truss-to-resign-now-and-want-boris-johnson-to-replace-her/ar-AA135Su3?ocid=mailsignout&pc=U591&cvid=0f47b84e5828450d97e4caaf8b384442
  6. You really need to read whole paragraphs and sentences separated by a comma and understand what point is being made , rather than just picking out a few words from paragraphs and then taking the meaning out of context
  7. In relation to Irish builders who came to work in the UK in the 1950's
  8. What jobs did your Parents do in the UK in the 1950's ?
  9. Many of the Irish came to the UK to work in the construction industry in the 1950s
  10. Moving the goals posts somewhat . I was speaking about Irish builders who came to work in the U.K in the 1950s , I also gave a reason as to why they wouldn't be suitable tenants was because building work is considered to be seasonal work and the work is irregular and so the tenants may only stay until their building has been built and they would move on somewhere else , and landlords would want long term tenants ,
  11. Are you saying that its derogatory to say people are of African descent ? That shows your racism by suggesting there is something wrong with being of African descent . I am accusing you of being a racist for suggesting there's something wrong with being of African descent
  12. Well, do you have an opinion on the question, simply replying and telling me to answer myself , well it is answering the post, but it isn't answering the question
  13. That is true . If I see a Black person, I cannot tell as to whether they come from the Caribbean of Africa , they do look the same to me
  14. Stop making false allegations . I asked a person a question and he will not answer He cannot answer because its well known that Irish builders did like a drink
  15. Well, did Irish builders like to drink ? Is that reality or incorrect racial stereotyping ?
  16. You have fallen foul of rules................... 4. Stereotyping of an entire nationality. 9. Over-use of the 3rd person plural pronouns and adjectives, (e.g. - them, they, their) 10. “They” come over here…. 11. Sweeping subjective generalisations about nationality, creed, colour 18. “They come over here…” If you can tick any one of these, you are probably racist.
  17. OK............................people of African descent and not just particularly from the African continent (Although my same point still remains )
  18. The people who died in the fire were not "murdered" , it wasn't intentional
  19. It really isn't . I was pointing that that he was incorrect when he made the claim that far right groups have significant public support in the U.K . I wasn't "feigning ignorance" and I wasn't "sealioning" , I was pointing out an incorrect claim
  20. That really needs to be into perspective , that was a sign that same landlords wrote when advertising their property for rent . Baring in mind that in the 1950s , Africans were arriving in the U.K and they may have had different living standards in African than what was expected in the U.K , some may have just arrived and had no jobs . Irish were coming to the U.K often to work in construction and Irish builders may not have been the type of tenant a landlord would want , work was seasonal and the Irish do like a drink . You can understand landlords not wanting those tenants back then
  21. Is there some truth in the stereotypes ? "Land of smiles" Do Thais generally smile more than , say Russians ? Why isn't Bulgaria nicknamed "Land of smiles" ?
  22. They do not have significant public support though . I wasnt saying that there are no far right groups in the U.K. , I was questioning whether they had significant public support and those listed groups seem to be "one man and his dog" groups . When they stand in elections , they get votes of about 1-200 , so hardly significant public support
