I've lived in Bradford and live close to Birmingham.
Neither experience has turned me into a racist. |

| Quote: cod'ead "Here's your hero's letter of complaint to the BBCDear Auntie
Firstly, you know me, I'm not usually one to moan but I feel you should know about what happened on my last visit.
You weren't around at the time but your friend, Mr David Dumbledore or something like that, was in charge of looking after me. Now I know he's a good friend of yours and whenever I've seen him he is usually a nice man but that wasn't the case last night.
He told me he'd arranged a little show, he said it was a bit like "Animal, Vegetable or Mineral", well it was nothing of the sort, it was more like a game of charades. There were lots of people there, all sitting in rows, like at the magic lantern shows. Mr Dumbledore had me and what were obviously three of his very good friends, sit at a table and the people in the audience were supposed to ask a question and then we were supposed to guess what they were talking about. We were all supposed to take it in turns but when my turn came, Mr Dumbledore's friends started picking on me. It just wasn't fair. Not only did I get all the hard questions (much harder than the others), the others started asking me questions too, without even answering their own.
I didn't enjoy last night but that doesn't mean I wont visit again. I'd love to come back but not if that nasty Mr Dumbledore and his friends are around.
So please Auntie, on my next visit can we play one of the parlour games that I do enjoy, like "Pinning the Blame on the Muslim"?
Your loving nephew
Nicky'"

Thanks - pity that the 'informed' can't be bothered to inform the un-informed... |

| Quote: Kosh "Is English not your first language? Genuine question, because you seem to be unfamiliar with the use of the word 'you' to refer to an unspecified third person or group of people rather than a specific individual. For instance, in that sentence the word 'you' is used in the sense of 'anyone'. It's a quite common usage, which is why I couldn't understand why you were getting so upset.
I can't. His problem has been caused by the illegal actions of his employer, and his anger should be directed at him rather than the immigrant worker.
My view was that if they had a genuine grievance and evidence that the rules were being broken they should have pursued things through official channels first.'"
Yes that works. Official channels everytime. My company have turned round and said pay freeze because of the current climate. This despite the fact we have bucked the recession and made massive profits. We won't strike and they know it? Exploitation? Or are they right as well? |

I don't give a fig who I 'label'. Anyone who supports a racist party or racist policies is a racist. And trying to pretend otherwise is just plain dumb. |

So your issue is with your Employer... now it all makes sense - Is he or she a Muslim? |

But if it makes you feel better keep grasping the tissues. |

I don't know if they would or not. I was simply replying to a previous post. |

Ok so they have a different religion... but is it because they go to a Mosque and not a Church... what about a Synagogue...
My guess it has nothing to do with religion so why the ref to Muslim...!!! |

Typing stuff in bold like that just makes you look like a kid y'know.
The dispute in question centred around an accusation that the employers were breaking both UK and EU employment law. Since that was the case, a legal challenge seemed to be the logical first step.
Your employer is being immoral but not breaking any laws as far as I can see. So two completely different cases. |

Probably the fact the Jewish community ( who are renowned for their hard work, same as the Chinese) aren't wanting to impose Sharia Law on the country. Or do you fancy that? You into treating women like crap or something? |
