If you came to my door with that flag on your Van id probably try and re-book an appointment.

I dont want some working class, riff raff in my house.

You might try and steal the cuttlery.

thanks for flagging that information up to us. what a pretty picture you paint.

I hope NTL are also aware that some muslims are white as well - have they factored that into their PC agenda?

Thats the full quote above...
Exactly. So why in your previous post did you put "In case they offend Muslims" as part of the ntl quote?

It was "The Sun" that, unsuprisingly, put that bit in, just to stir things up a bit & get the patriots blood boiling :rolleyes: . The ntl spokesperson didn't even mention Muslims.

The first quote, I copied directly from the Sun, the second comes from the website, as was stated!

this bit is a direct quote from the NTL spokesperson.

"We work in many multicultural areas and in different countries within Britain so we want to maintain a professional image and a sense of impartiality"

so what has multi culturism go to do with the English flag? is it against some cultures to see the English flag roll up at their doorstep or pass down their street?

I can't believe these other "cultures" the NTL PC team claim exist would be so petty and pathetic.
