Nice to see Ethnic mix in this last week...
 
Not a black or asian face to be seen in this important week of politics. the white anglo saxons are the power race in GB.

I'd rather have someone appointed on merit, not just to fulfil some sort of ethnic quota. Didn't see many ethnics in the higher echelons of Labour Cabinet did we, despite their mealymouthed obeisance to multiculturalism, inclusivity, positive discrimination etc.

Best candidate for the job should get it, irrespective of race, colour, gender, sexual preference or social background. Positive discrimination is STILL discrimination whatever way you want to dress it up.

I'm sure there were a few Jews kicking about somewhere.

I agree completely.
Never thought I would say that about one of your posts.

The best person for the job should get it. What needs to be ensured is that minorities in government have the same chance as a typical MP at getting a job and that it shouldn't hold them back. But that doesn't mean on the grounds they are a minority that they should be ahead in the queue to get the job. The person who can best do the job should always get it.

Hardly any surprise if a country is ruled by its own indigenous population! The Brits should rule Britain!

Sounds a little harsh, but I agree with this.

I'm not sure that is entirely true though. I noticed a few brown faces,
but,
maybe the problem with a statement like this is that it assumes if the representative is a native then he or she just represents natives.
WRONG.
Demonstrably wrong but it even 'hypothetically' there is not reason for that to be true.
I also dislike the question which seems to insinuate (or even imply) that you don't trust the decisions of so many blacks and asians?
In ridings with substantial black or asian populations we saw native 'anglo-saxon' Brits elected.
Well it becomes statistically impossible to suppose a large portion of their votes were from blacks and asians.
So who are you to question their choice?
If 500 blacks wanted Nigel Whiteman as their representative then who are you so say these black voters were wrong?
Maybe they are very pleased that Nigel Whiteman is representing them.

As an 'anglo-saxon' I once voted for an East Indian immigrant to represent me in a local election.
So what?
I was happy with how he did represent me too.
Or do you think he would only represent other East Indians?

I wonder why the OP won't complain about disproportional representation of Jews in the UK?

Ignoring the rest of the thread, because Angus has made some good points, and just taking this barrage of misinformed bullshit on it's own :

British people and Britain's own indigenous population are two entirely different things.

Can a black British person not have a say in the running of the country? After all, thousands of ethnic, British people exist. Should they not get an elected voice?

Your point, as usual, makes virtually no sense to the rational minded reader.

The Brit's should rule Britain. Right. And plenty of ethnic British people exist. So as usual you barge in shouting at the wall.

I agreed with her post, but I didn't mean it as 'The whites should rule Britain'

Well naturally anyone running the country would be British wouldnt they?..its all that indegenous population bollox wombai and her bnp mates comes out with, black people have been in Britain for centuries not to mention we're a nation made up of many different origins that have invaded this island since time began, what does she want us to do search the highlands for ginger haired celts to rule over us? LoL...we all know exactly what she means

The climate of the UK dictates a white face in evolutionary terms.

OK. Like I said in an earlier post, there are plently of Jewish people in parliment that nobody even thinks to question. I didn't mean it as in whites. Just anyone who considers themself British and all that. Who are her bnp mates?

Well Labour had Neil Kinnock as their leader (a ginger haired celt) and lost two general elections with him!

And as usual - you seize any and every opportunity to barge in on a post of mine shouting it down - no surprises there! As I have said many times - totally predictable - and not at all rational!

For your information dear, I have never supported the BNP in my life - so you really should quit with the libellous comments! You don't do yourself any favours with that behaviour!

Britain has as much right to its historical and cultural identity as any other country! I was commenting on LTs sarcastic remark about white Anglo Saxons being the power race in this country - as historically they always have been and you would expect to see more 'white faces' running this country - just as if you go to say India you would expect to see more 'brown faces' running the country! That doesn't mean to say I have anything against people of other races as Members of Parliament in this country - I don't! I was talking about the majority!

Shame on you for repeatedly playing the 'racist' card in a desperate attempt to 'prove' your point!

And as usual you are refusing to combat proper arguments in favour of talking about my posting. Whatever is the matter.

I don't give a shit that you are WOMBAI. Anyone could have posted that heap of garbage and I would have taken an issue with it. It was a misguided mess of a viewpoint.

How exactly was my comment garbage - clearly others don't agree! But obviously your opinion superseeds theirs and mine! Opinions dear, opinions! Yours are not necessarily right! :hugesmile:

I already tore apart your comment in the post you ignored. I refer you to that.

Also, why exactly are you playing some high brow 'right to opinion' card? I'm not stopping you from having an opinion. And my opinion is that what you posted is garbage.

Simple. So deal with the points at hand. Without bringing pointless elements into it and trying your best to make me look like some mini Hitler.

Of course my opinion is mine. It's hardly Steven fucking Segal's.

What is it with you? You are willing to go around in circles with these nonsensical diatribes about your posting rights without ever actually defending the opinion your fighting so hard to keep!
