Agreed, it certainly isn't something I would want to give a link to on here.

Good - I reported it as soon as I saw you post it, selected "Racial discrimination" or something worded like that as the reason for reporting it.

Re: Miners dead in Swansea Valley tragedy
I am glad of that as there is no excuse for such despicable behavior by a idiotic sick minority.

Re: Miners dead in Swansea Valley tragedy
I cant understand racism between English, Welsh, Irish and Scottish etc.
I know some of the history but in this day and age surely it should be water under the bridge but it still goes on i have been at the end of it myself in England.
On one of my many visits to Plymouth i was verbally attacked for being Welsh and they made quite a few racist remarks.
Also on a visit to a pub in London around the Leicster Square area i went in to use the Loo and thankfully didnt speak, i went into the mens toilet and written all over the walls were things like "Kill the Welsh" and drawings along the same line.
Unfortunately its just a few that spoils it for all and unfortunately some people then think everyone is like that.

Re: Miners dead in Swansea Valley tragedy
There have been a lot of collections for this in Swansea today, Tesco in Swansea Marina are collecting and so are people in the Quadrant Shopping Center.
I knew there would be a lot of support and its still good to see that there are still people out there willing to help, i was suprised at this time to see so many notes in the collection boxes of £5, £10 and £20s.

Re: Miners dead in Swansea Valley tragedy
Current total raised for the families of those affected is close to £900,000 - amazing effort in such a short space of time.
