I disagree. Just because some of us are proud of Britain and have our particular views doesn't make us members of the KKK.

It strikes me that the majority voice is always undermined in the UK by the minority liberal voice that wants to appease every ethnic sector, which in percentage terms is a very small percentage of the vast majority which is Anglo-Saxon.

We should stick up for our Britishness. What's wrong with that? Other countries stick up for their national identity with pride. But do it here and you get called...well, you know what I mean and it annoys me.

It seems to me that anyone can get get away with borderline comments by claiming that anyone who pulls them up is anti British :dry:

One picture of a Burka clad woman to prove a point and you relate that to all Muslim immigrants?

Seems you're the one with a broad brush not me.

BTW my son has dual nationality, but it wasn't needed for this referendum.

U can be engaged to the Pope I ain't bothered or want to marry a guy ,
But when u start going to such extremes just because someone didn't get to vote, the law is set and that's the law tough shit , I know a few guys married to Thai women and they are fed up with there wives sending money to there family , immigrants don't come here to go down the pits for pennies they come they work save and help the extended family who are very poor much poorer
Ps a burka is associated with muslims !
Correct me if I am wrong I don't know of any other religion that wears a burka .

Not all Muslims refuse to integrate, refuse to learn English, are anti-white racist, tolerate extremism and wear a Burka.

But make no mistake, those people do exist, I should know having been the only white person living in an Asian only community for six years.

But you take this very extreme example of someone I don't think has any more right to vote on UK matters than an EU immigrant and you make out from it that I don't like Muslim immigrants, because only Muslims wear Burka? So Hansblix, it is certainly you with the problem. You don't seem to be able to differenciate one person from another on the basis of religion.

Such problems do exist in Muslim communities, albeit a tiny minority, but the fact nobody can mention it without being branded a racist by people like you is a massive part of the problem.

If a society has a problem it needs to be openly addressed, talked about and dealt with, not hush, hush, don't mention it, sweep it under the carpet because police and politicians are too scared of being branded racist by people like you who misconstrue what is said, jump to conclusions, or just get all lefty sensitive about it.

To hell with race, creed, colour, religion, gender. None of this maters.

What is really needed is some form of intelligence test for individuals before they are eligible to vote. This would clear away many with extreme views and plain bloody stupid from the system.

Just a thought. :unsure: :laugh: :laugh:
