Now you've really lost the plot.

Someone has a different opinion to you, so you call them racist?

Wanting to uphold ones own culture is not racist. If a Spaniard came out and said he was worried about what was going on in the Costa del Sol because the amount of Brits there not learning the language and integrating was growing and therefore threatening Spanish culture, you would be all over in agreement.

I'm not sure why you are so desperate to try and make friends on this thread, but you're coming out with some absolute shite to try and get validation.

He said someone made a racist statement, all because he doesn't have the ability to debate properly. That's dangerous and the fact you're agreeing with it is pathetic.

This is an extremely sad double act. Pete - thought you were better than this. If someone makes a statement and another person says it's racist, that's directly insinuating that person is racist. It's a very dangerous path to go down.

It’s really not honestly
He may well believe he is racist but he didn’t say he was
It’s important otherwise you label a person for what they do or say and that’s wrong

I’ve been called a racist on here by certain people just for saying I didn’t rate Kasey Palmer and Jay Dasilva

Here lies the problem.

"I wish to preserve my culture" = RACISM

I take it the same standards are applied to all groups? We wouldn't be holding just one group to this standard would we?

Saying that England and an English culture will be wiped out by foreigners is a racist statement.

If we're preserving an English culture, I hope everybody goes to watch the CBSO, is a member of English Heritage and the National Trust, regularly goes to watch Shakespeare at Stratford...

Doing all of that and more is not racist.

Correct me if I’m wrong but hasn’t British culture been shaped by the cultures that invaded us, Norman, Saxons, Vikings, Romans etc and the cultures that we bought back from when we invaded… checks notes, the rest of the world. So in denying multiculturalism you are in fact denying the very essence of British culture therefore wiping out British culture. Is a conundrum isn’t it. Maybe try reading some history books instead.

I beg to differ about Sweden with Somali gangs settling drug wars with hand grenades. The Swedes are reevaluating their immigration policies.

British culture is going it could be argued. All types of british teens are growing up and not saying sorry every 2 seconds which I think is as unbritish as it gets!

You were criticising multi culturalism. Are you saying that it's impossible to have a peaceful society unless it only contains one race of people?

I think the points that were make by the poster were also close to the wire but i assume you know that race and culture are different things?

Worth noting that this isn't a white person thing

I know for a fact a lot of Punjabis think immigration has perhaps gone too far and is an issue and that England isn't the same country anymore.

Polish prob say same

I imagine loads of British Muslims probably having same convo in their homes too

Are some of them racist? Most definitely. But some are just concerned. I imagine this is the case for a lot of white people.

I expected reform to do well as "normal" voters in centre are leaning more right because of this sorta stuff. I don't use terms like woke and gammon etc but the left seems so extreme sometimes it's making life harder for them.

Mind you labour still won so what do I know!

I’m proud to live in a multicultural democracy. Diversity makes this country great.

Anybody that threatens that whether they are born here or elsewhere should be punished harshly.

Man charged after bus set on fire during Leeds riots as five more arrested

Police arrest five more people and charge one man with arson after riots in the Harehills area of the West Yorkshire city saw a bus set on fire and a police car flipped on its side. Comments about the disorder by Nigel Farage prompt a Green councillor for the area to hit back.
news.sky.com

Book thrown at them hopefully and more arrests to follow.
Farage getting the wrong end of the stick as usual, either that or he's shit at geography.

I really think that in these situations, courts should order any guilty party to pay for the costs of the damage. In this case, the bus.

Don’t disagree in principle, but practically you’d be lucky to get £500 out of him.

Britain has been a hotbed of rioting for fucking centuries.
I'm not defending these rioters because as far as I'm concerned if you riot to prevent the authorities trying to rescue vulnerable children then you deserve everything that's coming your way, prison, deportation, whatever, you deserve it

But let's not pretend rioting is a new thing, we've did it for years.

I think “a hotbed” is a bit far. France a hotbed of rioting, yes.

Every time I have made a comment suggesting that stopping oil licences isn’t good for the economy, someone (CBA to look back at who) popped up suggesting that isn’t how the global oil market works. Hence that somewhat sarcastic post. Unless the oil market is different for Norway.

Why not link the value of damage to the amount of community service? Pay off the damage at a rate of NMW.
