What about them? The BNP are an incredibly marginalised group in British politics who are becoming increasingly irrelevant. Far-right and racist attitudes are far more prevalent and on the increase in other European countries more than they are in Britain, look at France where there effective equivalent of the BNP, Le Pen, are actually becoming a serious contender and force to be reckoned with in the political world

Hardly hypocrites, and no we would not be saying only in America, you have no proof of that. We know full well there are people in our country like this.

Yeah it's called paraphrasing, I just don't understand why you seem to think everything is a competition between America and Britain

ummm, when did i say it was a competition? please stop projecting your insecurities on me. I've simply pointed out all the posts where people think that it's Okay to generalize about American's being racist, when clearly UK is just as racist.

Lost Alex, given that you come from the land whereby the KKK originated and still has it's feet firmly placed in the Klan and other white supremist groups : I really don't think you're any position to spout about the UK and any such similar organisations.

Apart from which: it might have escaped your notice but this isnt a thread about the Brits vs America.

As for your accusation of 'hypocrites'.... I cannot see one person on this forum who has backed the London female on the tram for her behaviour: not one.

Now on BBC London Local News.

You're out of order lostalex.

this isn't about America. It's about something that happened here in the UK, on a tram in Croydon.

You are making an assumption on many here in the UK, based on a clip of one (ONE) woman's bigoted and racist rant. One. Not one thousand, not one million - ONE woman.

Well you seem to think it is; "haha you're racist too". And err what insecurities have I displayed here?

So Do I
they are not mainstream here in the UK.



I have been in America
You have the Evil Types that murder over Race.

and where did the people of the KKK originate?? Oh yea, the UK lol

who created slavery in the Southern US? the British.

Why do you think you have a leg to stand on?? You wanna talk history? sorry, the UK has no where to hide in this debate., LEt's talk about how the UK supported the south in the civil war then..

I never said it was about Brits vs. America, i don't know why you perceive it that way.

Maybe because you didn't bring America into it.:conf:

How very dare you leave them out MTVN. How very dare you ! ;)

:D

"who created slavery in the Southern US? the British."


Yes but you are going back 300 years ago or more.


In America in the 1960's
you were like South Africa was.

we do? well so does britain, and norway, and france, and china, what's your point?? every country has racist murderers...

again, you are trying to imply that America is more racist than europe or other countries/continents...
You are proving my point.

Why did you just come into this thread to moan about the British again? How utterly pathetic. No one in here had mentioned it before you and it was completely irrelevant; your accusations were also entirely untrue. No one would say it was "only in America" that it happens in if this was in America, so really you've just come in, called us hypocrites and started a Britain vs America argument.

First KKK started in deep South (america) mid 1800's iirc. ;)



oh look........ another little nugget about Pulaski, Tennesse, USA.
In fact - it couldn't be further from America - it's about an incident that happened in the UK and our feeling on it.
How about getting back on topic. This isn't about America. If you want to discuss that - maybe open your own thread and stop hijacking this one.

LOl,, and who created aprteid in south africa too?/ the BRITISH!!!. so what exactly is your point??

Maybe your starting to see the pattern here... all the places that had the worst racism.,, seem to come from Britain.. why is that??? think.

Your Points are off topic to this thread


I hope a fair Mod sorts you out

No they were Dutch


Get back to School

a "fair" mod would see that i'm making valid intelligent points, and i'm not breaking any forum rules.

This thread is about Croydon London
a Rude Woman now arrested


Its not about Yanks

Seconded Arista.


:D

(Dutch boars??)

umm, they don't speak Dutch in SA, they speak English, for a reason!

Just like in Jamaica they speak English too, i wonder how did a whole community of black people get on an island in the carribean speaking english? oh that's right, they were slaves, they speak english because british boats stole them from africa, put them on an island, and when the white british masters lost control they fled. that's how black people got to the carribean, and that's why they speak english.

No offence all of you but why are we discussing the USA? It has nothing to do with this topic.

but you engaged me on this topic, so i've responded.

Wrong (again).

English, dutch and Afrikaans is spoken.

I cant help feel that you're starting to embarrass yourself, and in no small way either.
