The media bias in this country is sickening. When it comes to condemning muslims, immigrants, young black boys. It is a field day out there. However, things like these are mentioned once and forgotten. Make no mistake this happens everywhere.
Last year, I went to the Chelsea game, some of the chanting our fans were directing at Eva was nothing short of embarrassing. I was ashamed to be sitting next to these people. Look at the headline about Chelsea fans, had that been a muslim guy from Saudi, it will be headlined only as " Terrorist." How about headlining this stuff simply as British football fan? Of course that will not happen, but we all know why.
As a person of mixed heritage, I am sad at the state of this country, and what makes it worse, when one opens their mouth to voice anger, this whole rubbish about race card is branded about. Get the hell out of here, England is one racist country, and the fact that we have the audacity to be questioning why Fifa are awarding certain countries rights to stage events as opposed to us is barking mad. Charity begins at home, and we really do need to take a hard look at ourselves.

Seeing some of these comments makes me lose faith in humanity more. And to the idiot above, my dad is white. Yeah right, I hate him as i'm racist towards white people. First class mongoloid you are.

Erm, 'mongoloid' is considered a pretty offensive term.

Don't play the laughing boy. There's only two things I hate in this world. People who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.

The UK is nothing but a social outreach programme. We live in a corrupt socialist state. People say they lose faith in humanity, but we're all giving to charity every day. 8% of our utility bills are going to social outreach, giving boilers to the 'poor' and the lazy.
The welfare state has created a nation based on entitlement and as a result the country is suffering. Look at the Scottish referendum; the vote was predominantly split between the haves(unification) and have nots (independence). Over 50% of the population get social benefit and for most the referendum was purely about keeping that gravy train flowing. More benefit for more money for cigs and drugs. The problem can be extrapolated across the UK - people voting for promises of welfare because they believe they're entitled to it. The care nothing for the fact that to keep that welfare gravy train flowing the government have to borrow 25% of the national debt year on year. Blair is to blame for the fractious country we live in today. He gave more devolution to Scotland and opened the doors to yes votes from Eastern Europe - people who hop straight on the social welfare racket for the most part.
The best thing for this country will be for Cameron in the last week of the build up to the election to buy the majority vote by promising a referendum on Europe within 6 months of election. That'll win back a lot of the votes from the UKIP. Then he needs to re-work out our position in Europe on more favourable terms.

what bothers me most is the 'grass is greener' types
there's a small army of immigrants in 'much better' France threatening to riot if they can't come to England. But they're already in a place much better, more tolerant, and more progressive. Supposedly.
There are flaws in every country but some seem hellbent on only seeing the negative in England and the positive elsewhere.
Go live in Utopia if it's so bad here. You'll wind up wanting to emigrate back. Hopefully we've shut the door when that day comes.

I find comments like 'England is extremely racist' utterly bewildering. Have these people saying these things never been to Italy, Spain, France, Greece, any of the Scandinavian countries? The Scandinavians are the richest and happiest people in Europe, but if you're the wrong shade they don't want you there. Probably why they benefit so much. They don't let people go there and take the píss.

I do not care what pigment your father has,and if the mongoloid insult was aimed at me,you reveal a nasty and intolerant side,any racist would be proud of.
Who said anyone hated white/British people on here.or do you read between the lines,and simply make things up?
Still can't believe you refer to people as mongoloid,up there on yer high horse.Pretty pathetic.

I find the whole skin colour debate rather odd,and it is enlightening that any mention of pale skin,can be met with irrational racist accusations,from so called anti-racists?
It must be fun when they see a census form!Implosion time.

If there is no such thing as race,and it is a scientific invention of the 19th century................why do people call me,and others,racist on here?
