to try and claim otherwise is just ignorant of Britian today.

I Disagree . Life can be equally hard for all races . I'm half-arab and lived in a predominanatly black and asian area and believe me , some of them bring their "hard life" on themselves by dropping out of school to become a gangsta and deal crack then they wonder why they're not welcomed with open arms when they go for a job .
You see because my mothers white I see both sides of the coin , people do tend to speak out for their own kind except white people (they feel as though they have to walk around on eggshells when the issue of race/asylum/terrorism...etc... crops up , and those that speak their mind get branded racist). Well I don't have a "kind" and I'll say it as I see it , all races are as capable of racism , all can have a hard life , all can be discrimminated against .But as far as the general attitude to race goes in society these days , things have never been more fair and equal , and for people to still be making out life's harder for minorities in this day and age is ridiculous .
Let me tell you , I'm certainly glad I'm not living in the middle east where my ancestry lies or I'd have been on trial and possibly executed for leaving my religion (I was supposed to be a muslim ) , and Africa is rife with poverty , AIDS , and famine .

Any black , arab or asian living in Britain is lucky to be here and thats the bottom line , so lets cut the s**t.
