id like a link to that please as thats totally untrue.
whites in gb make up possibly 75-80% of gb possibly less.
how on earth with all these different cultures can there be 90-95% white polulation?
especially with all the immergrents coming in.

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

Because the numbers aren't actually that high when you consider just how many white Brits there are in the country.
Bet you never thought that did you?

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

Because you believe the media or you live in a area in which the ethnic minority is larger than the national average of 7.9%? Both of which give the false impression that the country is over run by immigrants?

If you read the thread, you would find the figures from the Office of National Statistics on page 2, post number 20.

What is it you don't like about "immergrents" - their inability to clearly speak/write English?

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

And here was me thinking it was safe to start reading this thread again :(

I see there is those that want it to stay in the gutter :(

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

Why is it not? :confused:

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

Maybe their ability to work out that even 80% is bigger than 20%, let alone 95% being bigger than 5% :D

Luxembourg didn't take very kindly to us passing through, even though we spent an absolute fortune there, that said there are rude and ignorant people everywhere, perhaps we were just unlucky

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

Oh, yeah, I agree that there are rude and ignorant people in every country... didn't mean to imply the opposite.

I guess you got a frosty reception in Luxembourg because you temporarily doubled their population - assuming there were 3 others in your car. They probably thought you were invading them :D

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

'us', 'they'...

all very sad. if you live in a country, you become that population.
when i move to greece for example, i'll speak greek, write greek, read greek.
it's only fair that people who live here should do the same with english.

i think that all 'communities' are fractured nowdays, whether black, white or whatever. it's a sad state of affairs but certainly not amplified by immigrants - i think we need to look at ourselves before we start to blame other cultures.

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

Because that's the way arithmetic works - 75% of the UK population being 'British' (or 'white' or however you're going to misrepresent it) would mean 15 million immigrants, which is rather a lot, and it's up to you to find two Londons-full, if you wish to back your outlandish claim. It might have been worth paying attention in English as well as maths class, incidentally.

Iraq?

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

There are loads of Iraqi's who have no problem with Brits living or working in Iraq.

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

I'm sure the British Army reassure themselves of that every night as they take incoming mortar fire.

A large majority of Iraqis haven't forgiven us for 1919 let alone 2003, and want us out of their country.

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

I'm sure the British workers out there are quite liked by many too.
Or are you suggesting that the majority of the population are currently firing mortars at everyone who is British?

Re: Appalling stuff from the Daily Express
 

Most of the violence is Iraqis killing other Iraqi's isnt it?
