I lived and worked in UK in many places but stayed away from places known for trouble. 

If don't think of those you mentioned don't have troubled areas you must of steered clear of them.

Sorry but I don't understand what you are saying as you are using a double negative. They don't have troubled areas or I just didn't see the trouble?

Please clarify.

Where do you live now?

 

I live in Thailand now but in the past five years or so, I have spent at least two months of the year in Lancashire around Blackburn, Burnley, Preston and Chorley. Last March, I drove into Accrington to collect an online purchase from Argos. I went through what some people probably call a no-go area? Looked clean and tidy with decent row houses and newer cars. Not a broken or boarded up window in sight and no graffiti either. The only thing that made me think I was in a "bad" part of the town were the ladies out shopping or walking on the pavement with kids or crossing the road with a pram. They were all those black-clad "letterbox" ones that soon-to-be former PM found entertaining.

Is my honesty a problem for you...?

 

Of course, you won't watch videos of foreign people you protect being naughty, even if it is 100% related to Enoch's thoughts of the UK future, because you know I am right, it is actual evidence.

 

 

Now come on, watch the vids and tell me your friends are not trying to impose Sharia Law in the UK, imported nonsense........????

Are the videos honest, are they real, are your people doing what Enoch professed.....?

 

Of course, they are, time for a re-think for your lack of real facts of the thoughts of Professor, Brigadier Enoch Powell, Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, and not foreign folk trying to change our British Isles with their ancient nonsense........????

I don’t know why you are asking me, I told you, I don’t watch videos posted on this discussion forum.


Powell’s titles and honors didn’t stop him from being a racist.

 

Not have they made his  vile racist predictions come true.

I watch a lot of moving pictures, for entertainment and sometimes for information, I don’t watch videos on search of opinions of people I don’t know.

 

But why do I need to watch videos about the UK?  I’ve just got back from the UK, I was there, walking around meeting with people, talking to people, getting an up close and personal feel for the place - you don’t get that from a video.

 

I had a great time, I didn’t come across any problems that impacted me personally, certainly no immigrants bothered me at all.

 

Although as I have said, I did witness the shocking poverty, people struggling to feed themselves and people from all parts of the community, regardless of background, coming together to help others.

 

The up close personal experience you aren’t getting from your videos.

 

I don’t need you to select videos for me, I was there, I saw and experience life in the UK up to just a couple of weeks ago.

The 3 places you mentioned have there fair share of trouble areas of those locations if you are not aware of it, it's me that doesn't understand where you coming from. 

I will not look up the crime figures in those areas for you compared to other areas in the London area.

You have just returned to Thailand after being in the U.K for a few weeks and you went to UK food banks to hand food out and you went to deprived areas and meet the poor people .

   How did that go ?

Did you tell them that you were living in Thailand in the tropics and living a grand life at ease and not suffering like they are ?

   Did they regard you as one of them ? 

Poor working guys who need to visit food banks to survive or did they regard you as one "of them" ? 

   A rich jet setter who lives in the tropics and having more in common with Richard Branson than with them ?

So, you live in Bradford now?

 

Or are you just feeling other people's pain?

Expand  

Where have I said I live in Bradford...? 

Expand  

Thought so.

 

It's just that I asked you where you lived. That simple question in a single, separate paragraph. Hardly confusing but your response was a video related to some police incident in Bradford.

 

Throughout this thread, you have been demanding various members that hold an opposing view to the thread's flawed premise to answer your questions. When they don't you accuse them of somehow being at best disingenuous at ignorant at worst before casting them off as an irrelevancy. I just want to make sure I've got it right before I try it myself.

 

Thanks (again).

Is Richard Branson squatting here on retirement extensions then? Somewhere out by Ubon maybe? Living the relatively easy life while posting opinions on an empire lost the loss of something he already abandoned decades ago and can hardly remember with any degree of accuracy or relevancy?
