Sol Campbell recommends people be invited onto the FA Commission on the basis of the colour of their skin. What would have happened had Greg Dyke suggested that in order to get onto the commission a candidate must have white skin? Kick It Out!
If he's saying that non ethnic folk are all inherently anti ethnic larkers, that's a very sweeping statement. Or is he saying that everyone favours their own folk? Or is he saying that whereas indigenous English people are biased towards their own, such imperfections do not taint ethnic minority people? I wonder.....
Don't twist this thread into your own political agenda. There is no such thing as "indigenous population"; every single one of us will be able to demonstrate bloodlines to another race if we investigate far enough back into our lineage. This purely about racism being a two edged sword, not about whether it is right or wrong, or whether it exists.
Don't see how a joke about the Poles is racist. Poles are no more a race than fat or bald people. Are we not allowed to tell Irish or Scottish jokes now? Ridiculous.
Not wanting this to go the inevitable way, but I couldn't let that pass. The experts agree that there IS and indigenous population for these Islands. Most people can trace their main ancestry back to the people that were trapped here once it became an island separated from mainland Europe. We'd share much of our ancestry with those in mainland Europe as we share a common source. The subsequent influx from abroad has, according to the experts had a minimal effect. FFS, it was even on Time Team.
Think he wants a job on that committee does Mr Campbell - Not sure exactly how Mr Dyke has selected the people on it, Danny Mills anyone?
Even though there is nothing wrong with what Chiles said, at least it might get rid of him from football coverage.
It depends on the country for some reason. If it's a joke about Pakistanis or Ethiopians it's racist and vile. If it's a white Christian country it can't be racist.
Playing 'play that funky music whitee boy' will probably be banned soon If it was black instead of white, it'd of been banned a while ago
I don't have an 'agenda'. I just have opinions. Perhaps posting on a forum is not for you if you don't welcome different opinions. PS The bit I've emboldened embarrasses you, and detracts from any serious point(s) you may be attempting to make.
