Okay, you American then...now I know. Why the obssesion with Britain?

 

it's not just britain swazi. there are threads about australia and it appears that canada is on the list as well.

 

You got to help those who can't defend themselves. I use sources from Africans and Caribbean peeps on the net based in the UK. It's not hard to make contact with them online and their websites.

 

Haha..you are American, and you trying to help British people with their race-relations...Laughable!

 

As a Yank, if I went to England, I'd be treated great.

 

Britain has a bigger problem with class barriers more than racism, IMO.

If you're not born into the right social strata, unless you're utterly brilliant, certain career paths just aren't open to you.

 

I think Britain is a very cl;ass siociety. With its royalty etc. Not my preferred coutry. Not to mention its treatment of Northern Ireland. and they are not even black !

 

well said lass, well said

 

ha ha Denz, I suggest that you get a life..this obsession can't be healthy :yawinkle:

 

Blacks in Britain has a very long history and I'm amazed they surivived through all of this racism either hidden or upfront. I went to a exibition at the Imperial War Museum in London called "From Empire to Windrush". It was about the Afro-Brits during the two World Wars. It was their civil rights activities in the 1920's that made it easier for the Black-American soldiers when they came to the UK in the early 40's. Also they had good jobs and almost better lives. I have great respect for those Afro-Brits.

 

Yes you right. There is a class-based system in England and some high-end jobs in the government, business and military are given to people based on heredity. The British Crown occupies Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Brits are racist against the Irish, Scottish and Welsh.

 

Do you even realise how stupid that makes you sound??

 

No, he doesn't. This guy is clearly an ignoramus. I think it's best to just ignore his posts.

 

nationalist.

 

hunni britain includes wales, scotland and england

( and yes im english, part scottish and have lived in northern ireland in a very very repubican area )

 

Scottish pilot sues British Airways for 'canteen culture of racist abuse'

A SENIOR British Airways pilot is suing the airline for racism after he was called "a Jock" and told to go back to his welfare state paid for by the English. Douglas Maughan, from Dunblane, also claims there is a "canteen culture" of racism in which derogatory racist terms are routinely used.

Mr Maughan, 54, who has 29 years' flying experience, 15 with BA, says he received a letter and e-mails from ADVERTISEMENTa pilot he had never met, after he had a letter published in the staff magazine, BA News in 2005, which defended Labour's economic record.

He said one of the letters read: "Come separation will all Jocks F.off to that welfare state (paid for by English middle classes)??? Please say yes."

BBC Reports British Racism Against Welsh Speakers Still Strong

BBC Reports British racism and intolerance against Welsh speakers is still strong with the story of two Welsh ladies confronted by an aggressive English storekeeper on the Isle Of Wright. The storekeeper demanded the ladies who were speaking in Welsh to speak in English, she then ordered them out of the shop.

 

There is persistent anti-Welsh racism in the United Kingdom.

Recent examples of anti-Welsh sentiment in the media include the journalist A. A. Gill who in the Sunday Times described the Welsh as "loquacious, dissemblers, immoral liars, stunted, dark, ugly, pugnacious little trolls."

The English writer A. N. Wilson stated: "The Welsh have never made any significant contribution to any branch of knowledge, culture or entertainment. They have no architecture, no gastronomic tradition, no literature worthy of the name."

In 2000, a cross party group of Members of the National Assembly of Wales, representing all four political parties in the Assembly, called for an end to what they termed "persistent anti-Welsh racism" in the UK media.

BBC presenter Jeremy Clarkson is well-known for his xenophobic comments which sometimes take an anti-Welsh direction, e.g. "It's entirely unfair that some people are born fat or ugly or dyslexic or disabled or ginger or small or Welsh. Life, I'm afraid, is tragic."
