Come on, there is too much pc these days which is ruining this country. You cant sing blah blah "black" sheep, cant say black board or black bags, christmas trees are banned from shopping centres, where will it end? And its all coming from the Muslim religion. The Muslims are taking over and we need to stand together and say no, we wont do what you want, either you live in this country the way it has always been or leave the country! How can a council stop a parade that celabrates its own country because its scared of offending the muslims, other religions dont care, its just the muslims!! To everyone that reading this, if you think the BNP are a racist party, visit their web site and read the parties policies, you will be surprised! Oh and just for the record, my girlfriend is half indonesian and she supports the BNP too, so i hope that proves how unracist the party is! |

I sound like i'm anti English maybe, i'm really not at all, but i really can see a bigger picture here, and when i say your other statement was a dangerous thing, what i mean is, to say my way or out is dangerous, we all have different ideas of how to live, we all have to live together, just because i'm English doesn't mean i want or have to live like my neighbour, unless of course someone decided i had to!! see dangerous! |

Lots of traditional festivities and costumes are banned or restricted. The BNP equivalent here is the party of Geert Wilders. He was not welcome in the UK a couple of weeks ago, because of objections from minority groups. When you’re agreed with Wilders over here, you’re directly called a racist, but all you want is to stand for your Country and the things you believe in. |

Some of these people are unreal.They are not even elected so sit there safe and sound in their high paid jobs while everyone else has to work for a living. I wouldnt mind if they were sensible about it.Shall I complain I find the magazine Black hair offensive because it says on the cover for blacks only or something like that?Of course not. We are ruled by idiots. PS ted my sympathies all you want is to keep your countries traditions ,netherlands is a great country very popular with us brits.

Sue H Posts: 8172 Joined: 29th Jun 2007 Location: USA | quotePosted at 15:05 on 22nd March 2009 I was interested to read the article about the postmaster in Nottingham, who refused to serve anyone who didn't speak English. What was more interesting to me is that he himself, Mr Deva Kumarasiri is a Sri Lankan native. What he says at the end of this article is what makes him English and a part of our country, and I quote "When I came to England I obeyed the British way of life, I got into the British way of life. "That is what I ask everyone else to do - respect the country where you are working and living." http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/nottinghamshire/7956570.stm |
