    My safe place is a multi-cultural society away from bigots and racists. Thankfully I was educated to treat all humans, irrespective of their heritage, with the same respect and kindness unlike others who, it would appear, prefer to look at someone's skin colour or dress and treat them according to this.

    Where do you fit in this Woohoo?

      Where do you live? Do you live amongst it, in deepest darkest Bradford or Oldham - or is your experience of "multiculturalism" London (how often do you frequent Tower Hamlets)?

      You can be pro multiracial and criticise certain aspects of multiculturalism.

        You have made a statement about your safe place and education. So what do you mean where do I fit in with this?

          You are an expat like our other remainers?

          lets guess you moved to Finland or Italy?

          The latest survey lays bare the extent of the task. One in 10 respondents said that racial discrimination had stopped them from renting an apartment or house, with a wide variation between countries: 37% reported this experience in Italy and 28% in Luxembourg, compared with 3% in the UK.

          I do despair at listening to you spouting tulipe.

            Obviously you can't be as virtuous as Whorty, who obviously can't be as virtuous as myself. So my little hirsute friend, you is bollocksed!

              I grew up in the Black Country, in an area with a high % (even then) of Pakistani and Indians (remember the Tipton 3?). I went to Uni in Sheffield and lived in multi racial areas (to be fair, most student areas are). In London I lived for years out East, Leyton and Walthamstow central. Then moved to SE London. So yeah, I think I qualify to say I've lived 90% of my life in multi cultural places. Does this pass your test?

                Nope, not an expat. I did live in South Africa for a bit (no, not in the 'European' like Cape but up in the North).

                Do carry on though and try to give a narrative to my background that is 100% the opposite to what I have experienced or how I live

                Don't despair .... I'm sure you hear a lot of stuff you can't comprehend.

                  I don't think I'm virtuous ... I'm just not a bigoted xenophobe. But then maybe to some this may seem to be virtuous; to normal people, not being a bigot is just, well, normal.

                    Jeez no wonder you have such a blinkered insular view of life.

                    Course, you have conveniently forgotten to mention just where it was that you were a Big Game Hunter with your Bertie Big-Bollocks super-soaker.



                    Honestly, what a Grade A cosseted Loser.

                      Go on then Einstein, explain how my experiences make me blinkered. Explain, if you can, how your insular army life gives you broader experiences. Nope, didn't think you could.

                      I mentioned my time in SA in answer to another idiot. I also didn't mention specifically my couple of years in Birmingham, or when I dossed with mates for a few months in Essex.
