St George's day

[The Bedlington Terrier]

For once and for all we should all move on as Global Citizens or simply return to the days of the clans and the tribes.

My own choice actually is, "I'm proud to be English and stuff the rest of them!"

Incidentally before you start, we have loads of English born people who are not white.

Our problem seems to me to be that people who claim British citizenship seem to always end up living in England.

Is that sentence "racist?"

I would say that line 2 and line 4 are both racist BT!

Yes all well and good BT, but it doesn't even begin to answer my question/s.

"Just another ruse to get the xenophobes and racists behind the establishment."

If you aren't prepared to justify or explain the rationale behind such statements, you shouldn't post them, but as a fully paid up member of Momentum and a self proclaimed Labour activist I'm amazed that you either won't, or can't.

I have neither the time nor the inclination to write 1000 word essays just to prove a point.

I tend to go with the idea that a picture tells a 1000 words...

Establishment...

Attachment 9266

Xenophobic racists...

Attachment 9267

Now jump in the car and drive down the A666 towards Darwen and on for a couple of miles towards Bolton. All you can see are the flags of St. George plastered all over the place.

Like I said, xenophobes and racists all celebrating our suppose Christian superiority on account of a dude who was born in the Middle East and was about as English as Donald Trump.

Coincidentally, the English Establishment who were wheeled out in full regalia yesterday, will now use St George's day to annually commemorate the murder of an English black boy by white English racist thugs.

I found it truly ironic that a non-white, female, US citizen, found her way to the top bench.

Strange times sinkov, strange times.

The Times can usually be called upon to write a decent article...

I was particularly fond of:
"during the Brexit referendum the environment secretary endorsed what the Tory peer Baroness Warsi described as a “nudge-nudge, wink-wink, xenophobic campaign".

Confirmed Tory racists or alleged Labour anti-Semites? Choices, choices.

I did not have you down as one of them 59/60 ?

What I mean by that is folk (as your post suggests) are seemingly always jumping on the racist tag, for me his 2nd and 4th lines have nothing to do with racism, its just his preference, or am I wrong ?

No you are not wrong Alto,it's 59/60 what's being a total dick playing the rascist card.. What's up with you 59/60. ? Stop being a Cnut lol

Sorry lads, it was tongue in cheek!

BT asked if a comment he made was racist...I replied that actually two of his comments were.

For clarification I know that BT is NOT racist.

Carry on.

Thanks 1959-60, I feel a whole lot better for you recognising that on here!
