We are a country moving further and further to the right.
God help you if you are foreign, poor or ill
But you know, get brexit done, rule Britannia and all that gibberish
👍
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We are a country that allows homelessness to not only exist but thrive. This despite easily having the wealth to solve the problem. Or at least to cut the problem significantly rather than letting it grow.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But get brexit done brother 👍

It comes back to the cliche that’s been said plenty of times before - not everyone who voted Brexit is a racist, but everyone who is racist definitely voted Brexit.
Sadly this has just empowered them even further.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah,actual racists, who are a minority, are taking liberties with the situation.

I think that's BS.
I do believe there are people who'll put their pocket before their beliefs, so there will be racist remainers who think leaving the EU will be bad for business.
I was once on an Overground train.There was a lady talking gujerati very loudly on the phone to someone.
I understood the language but it annoyed me.
1. I was sitting at the other end of the facking carriage.
2. The whole carraige does not need to hear your conversation whatever language it is.Its a publuc place ffs
It does happen due to peoples mannerisms being misnterpreted as

That’s different. I don’t want to hear people’s loud conversation on the phone either, in any language.

I've not experienced it but I know of people through work who have been in environments in which the majority of people at their work place are Polish and all speak Polish. I don't agree with what the poster says but I think that's a shame if an English resident is made to feel foreign in England. It's kind of on the same lines as what John Cleese said I suppose. I don't consider myself racist for thinking that though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Is it not normal if the majority of people speak one language that the majority of speech will be in that language?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We didn't mind colonising, stealing people, wealth and resources for centuries and exporting English language and forcing people to adopt English in their own homelands.
If being made to feel foreign is a concern perhaps we should have considered the consequences of actions. We've been lumbered with some loads that we can't just wish away.

Are you for real? Conveniently forgotten the when Polish Centre in Hammersmith was daubed with racist graffiti the DAY AFTER the referendum?
There were countless other incidents, many of them posted on Twitter etc around that time too. The only reason it's not in the news more these days, is become so commonplace in the main it doesn't even count as newsworthy anymore.
My girlfriend was picked up yesterday morning by a taxi, she got in, cleared her throat, the driver asked whether she'd just got back from China, and started banging on about how he hated the Chinese anyway, and how it was going to be great 'getting control back'.
This to a total stranger!

You are talking bulls**. There we’re racist incidents all over Britain prior to Brexit. It’s just been inflated since Brexit as a way to bash us normal Brexiteers. Nobody is denying there isn’t racial hatred still on-going, but to sit there and say it’s because of Brexit is so simple minded and pathetic.

No it wouldn't. What does it matter to anybody if people speak another language to each other? You don't have to listen to what people are saying if they aren't speaking to you. Sounds like somebody is annoyed that they can't listen in to somebody's conversation, so they get annoyed. Or they are just xenophobic and annoyed somebody is speaking another language.

That poster just sums up the feelings of some British people that disagree with open door immigration.
People born in this country (particularly the older generations) have seen their standard of living drop, as millions of extra people have flooded into the UK, putting a massive strain on infrastructure etc.
The country is over populated and so there is a shortage of housing, the roads are overly congested, a trip to the shops is now a majorly stressful task, there is limited parking space. People are waiting weeks to see the doctor, people are waiting months for hospital appointments, crime rates are still too high etc etc.
Immigration is the reason Brexit was swung in the favour of leave, many people blamed immigration for the above and had enough of it.
These are not necessarily my own opinions but just the way I see it.
On the subject of foreigners speaking their native tongue in front of people when they can speak English, that is just plain rude. If they come here, they should at least learn to speak the language.

Why would I be in massive denial? You are the simple minded one, sitting there blaming Brexit for any isolated racist incident that has occurred in this country long before Brexit even existed. It was even worse during the 70s/80s before my time, where Racism was rife during football matches. Let me guess, you are going to blame Brexit for that? You are the simple minded buffoon here sunshine, not me.

I don't agree with what the poster says but I think that's a shame if an English resident is made to feel foreign in England. It's kind of on the same lines as what John Cleese said I suppose. I don't consider myself racist for thinking that though.

Is it not normal if the majority of people speak one language that the majority of speech will be in that language?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe yes, which would be deemed a foreign environment for someone who doesn't speak that language.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No it wouldn't. What does it matter to anybody if people speak another language to each other? You don't have to listen to what people are saying if they aren't speaking to you. Sounds like somebody is annoyed that they can't listen in to somebody's conversation, so they get annoyed. Or they are just xenophobic and annoyed somebody is speaking another language.

I've not experienced it but I know of people through work who have been in environments in which the majority of people at their work place are Polish and all speak Polish.

We didn't mind colonising, stealing people, wealth and resources for centuries and exporting English language and forcing people to adopt English in their own homelands.
If being made to feel foreign is a concern perhaps we should have considered the consequences of actions. We've been lumbered with some loads that we can't just wish away.

FFS how long do we have to pay for our fathers, fathers, fathers, fathers, fathers actions?

You haven’t paid.

You're either on the WUM, thick, in massive denial, or just struggling under the weight of guilt, Don.
Can think of no other explanation.

That poster just sums up the feelings of some British people that disagree with open door immigration.
People born in this country (particularly the older generations) have seen their standard of living drop, as millions of extra people have flooded into the UK, putting a massive strain on infrastructure etc.
The country is over populated and so there is a shortage of housing, the roads are overly congested, a trip to the shops is now a majorly stressful task, there is limited parking space. People are waiting weeks to see the doctor, people are waiting months for hospital appointments, crime rates are still too high etc etc.
Immigration is the reason Brexit was swung in the favour of leave, many people blamed immigration for the above and had enough of it.
These are not necessarily my own opinions but just the way I see it.
On the subject of foreigners speaking their native tongue in front of people when they can speak English, that is just plain rude. If they come here, they should at least learn to speak the language.

It could well be a remainer trying to stir the pot, I wouldn't put it past that Automatic guy, he's chuffing obsessed with racism.

That’s it, blame it on everyone else, f*cking apologist.

Can't you read? I said could.
Dear Lord, I've lost count the number of articles where you have produced evidence of wrongdoing by whitey to justify wrongdoings committed by minorities.

Why would I be in massive denial? You are the simple minded one, sitting there blaming Brexit for any isolated racist incident that has occurred in this country long before Brexit even existed. It was even worse during the 70s/80s before my time, where Racism was rife during football matches. Let me guess, you are going to blame Brexit for that? You are the simple minded buffoon here sunshine, not me.
