If you've never seen any racism on here then that fine but surely you can see that if you've never seen anything then its going to be pretty much impossible for someone to convince you. Gotta say I hate that argument - I have seen any so then it doesn't exist.

See my reply to Cherie. if you cant see it then its going to be almost impossible for someone to show you. Its an easy cop out and a familiar argument.

...it’s such a bizarre and weird concept that a report is commissioned to measure whether institutionalised racism exists or not and that’s what we’re basing society on...I mean, we can see it and hear it and be totally aware of it but it’s like that Little Britain clip....’computer says no’...oh, okay then, if a report tells us so then well...it just doesn’t exist, does it....everyone who was ever subjected to it or witnessed it etc...was just mistaken because computer says no so that must be that of that...and we’re total individuals are we if our mindset is ‘well a report led up by someone who doesn’t believe the existence of, says so...’...so that’s our gage...

So does anyone actually think this study has any weight?

It is impossible to see air, therefore it must not exist!

For a report on such a nuanced subject to be so emphatic speaks volumes.

Considering the article says this

But it also warned UK is not 'a post-racial society' and 'outright racism persists'

I didn't know what point she was making, any perceived racism on the forum is dealt with, she appeared to be saying that it wasn't which was my point

I have seen more racism toward Irish travellers than anything else on this forum tbh so people in glass houses and all that..not you

I realise this is a very Arista way of putting things lol

I've seen the comments about the Irish too. So you actually see it when it toward the Irish people eh. Interesting. Good to know.

We should commission a report, but only if it finds our beliefs to be 'true!'

A report to say Britain is not racist at all but we'll bury any rationality in a couple of sentences at the end.

I've seen members call themselves alt-right on here, I've seen asylum seekers called trash, and If we were allowed to discuss deleted posts I could highlight some serious racism.

Think it’s more that its not quite as taboo and causes little outrage so hangs around in threads longer

We have increased immigration....and nobody wants corporal punishment brought back..unless you've heard it mentioned in the house of commons?
