I put myself down as pagan on the last census  How many people fill it out truthfully? Crazy golf wasn't even listed as a sport. Need I say more! I come from a sea-faring family which were devout 'Chapel', I myself was brought up as a Methodist as there wasn't a chapel in that part of England. I am now part of the Church of Self, that is I don't recognise any except my own. Part of the reason we're here is because of the minority controlling the majority in England. I'm not talking colour, religious beliefs or general culture. For example, the local council stopped responsible adults drinking on the beach because of a tiny minority of drunks. That ban was spread throughout the town. Why should it affect me? I could go on about anti-social behaviour, it was endemic in the town I grew up in. Just scummy people, mainly white being cretinous. I want no part of it. |

I can't vote Over There now but I always made darned sure I did when I was Over There! In Australia its illegal to Not Vote - maybe thats the answer? Round 'em up, force 'em into the booth to make their mark? There was a huge fuss a while ago about the lady who worked for BA at Heathrow - she was told she could'nt wear her crucifix around her neck in case it offended someone, even if it was under her blouse & not on show. Shame these rules never work both ways. How many folk might be offended by being lectured at by a black letterbox?  Possibly as many who would take umbrage at a tiny silver crucifix. Its all PC lunacy, the country has gone mad. |

Population of UK: 62,698,362 (2001 census) Christian (Anglican, Roman Catholic, Presbyterian, Methodist) 71.6%, Muslim 2.7%, Hindu 1%, other 1.6%, unspecified or none 23.1% (2001 census) white (of which English 83.6%, Scottish 8.6%, Welsh 4.9%, Northern Irish 2.9%) 92.1%, black 2%, Indian 1.8%, Pakistani 1.3%, mixed 1.2%, other 1.6% (2001 census) Amazing how a few facts can shine a light to the scaremongers! I thought,that what made Great Britain great, was it's tolerance and acceptance of other minorities;race,religion and political views. Obviously,within each sector of society there will be bigoted,intolerant,insidious and ignorant people who adopt the Daily Mail stereotypical view,proclaim to be the one "true" way and damned be anyone else. How narrow-minded and backward-thinking can a person be? You make valid points Donk, but the problem is that the immigrants in the UK don’t integrate, they bring their backward beliefs with them and form inner-city ghettos, and this feeds the DM on line readers. And can you blame them? I have nothing but respect for anyone that tries to better themselves, but they need to firstly give the radicals amongst them a 'good talking too' and secondly fit in with the society they have come to. |

You sound experienced LiF. Right.........I'm an immigrant. So,all you BNP supporters out there,consider yourselves spoken to,harshly!  I'm the most unsociable person I know.  I don't integrate with French society,other when working and paying my taxes. I try my hardest not to integrate with the Brit fraternity either,especially the ones that wave at you when driving,just because you also have a Uk reg car! Where ever I've lived,all over the world,I have never been afraid to walk down any street in any "ghetto",including Sadr City! In fact,I positively seek out those specific areas to be able to experience "their" way of life,shops,restaurants,theatres et al. If every minority was spread thinly and evenly throughout the Uk,how boring would it be? No China Town,no Little Italy,Turkish Quarter etc etc. How bland! As of midnight last night,there are 1257 recognised terrorist organisations worldwide. 3 children die of starvation every second. One child dies through lack of clean water every second. Some things are just more important to woof about than a few immigrants and asylum seekers........... Donk  |

(I was incognito until my last ban) Also I too look at the stats of children who die of starvation world wide, from memory it’s 3000 pr hour. It’s strange how you to the left and us to the extreme right can agree on so much! I hope you are enjoying this forum, it’s on the arse end of the Internet but at least you can have your say, and that’s the most important bit  . |

Indeed LiF. Not sure that we've talked on AI (after my third ban I went to see the admin guy at the Vire Fair Play event,I'm now banned for good! Same with TF,banned 3 times,can't be arsed with it now) I have a rule,never say anything on tinternet that I wouldn't say face to face, subsection A, everything I say is said with a smile on my face. Sometimes I play the Devil's Advocate just to exercise the grey matter,the benefit of which,is being able to see things from the other standpoint.I wouldn't say that I'm a leftist,more humanist. Hey Ho! Off to water I go............ Donk |

“Right.........I'm an immigrant. So,all you BNP supporters out there,consider yourselves spoken to,harshly! ” I subscribe to the BNP website but I am not a member, they do have a good manifesto on many things other then just immigration, but as long as they have that buffoon Griffin as the leader they will never amount to nothing. |

We are mostly all immigrants on this site - I find donk's views the most acceptable to me in this discussion - especially as my family is mixed race.
I lost a lot of "friends" when I was round at someone's house and a guest complained that they had immigrants (ie Algerian family) move in next door. I couldn't bite my tongue and now am persona non grata there. All I said was that we are all immigrants in this room (we'd actually gathered to watch England play in the World Cup) - cue deathly horror. And they can all f**k off.
And pasha, I'm surprised you posted this - you've lived in WI, been married to a black woman, what point are you trying to make?
Lots of immigrants came to uk as a result of ads in newspapers - I used to read them in Jamaica - nurses, bus drivers etc NEEDED in uk. And if you'd fought in WW2, a bonus. And these ads were in Pakistan and India too.
There is an English church in Ploermel near me - should I be angry abouit that? Of course I shouldn't. So why should I be angry about a mosque in Bradford?

Donk Its impossible to be banned from ‘any’ website if you know the ropes (it just cant be done) you just need a new Mickey Mouse addy and a new ISP number or use a proxy server to get back in, but for AI I wouldn’t bother. I do keep one ID on it cuz it’s good for buying and selling, but that’s it. |
