I get angry with the fact that when we visit a foreign country we try to learn the language, and respect their culture
When people come here they speak in their native language, refuse to learn english and dont proove their worth by scrounging off the state
If we wanted to go to america we have to proove how we'd earn a living, what skills we would bring yet here they let anyone in and wonder why the fuck they have so many fucking problems.

I've been visiting family in Sao Paolo and spoke in Portuguesa all the time, apart from explaining what certain things mean to my lass as she's not that fluent in it, poor lass 
I know a Pakistani looking lad, he is infact very British in everything else bar his looks, and he tells me most Asian parents teach their offspring how to cheat the system and to turn dodgy situations (such as being arrested, or not getting free hospital treatment) into racist attacks.
My sister knows a pakistani girl who had a boob job on the NHS as she was diagnosed with 'depression' because her cleavage was that of a freshly skimmed plaster wall. Sick!

You have just hit the nail on the head
when you go abroad, spain, france etc, most of the menus and stuff are written in english tho
over here its all english, we don't write menus in spainish etc.
i think its the other way round, english go abroad and expect to survive with their english and not learn the other language

If i was planning to go to spain to live, i would make the effort to actually learn the language the best i could before i went, normally when we go its for the most 2 weeks which makes it pointless to learn the language really.

I don't agree i've lived in America for 3 months and they have just as many, if not more problems than us with regards to immagration and so on... Agreed it is on a larger scale but although they have a lot of laws and policies for it these are not often adhered to and it goes overlooked.

Some minorties are very quick to play the race card as a defence, my dad used to get it all the time in the police. Told me once about a pakistani fella who'd come in producing, became abusive, so they called down a bobby to deal with him.
He didn't know that the WPC had an Iranian mother, Polish Father, and a whole host of other nationalities mixed in somehow. So when he called her a racist bitch and she quoted her heritage he bacame very meek and humble. Brilliant IMO.

racism is a big load of bollox, white folk as a whole dislike asians because of the actions of a minority (which unfortunately seems to be growing), i have worked the homes of a number of asian families, half of which are employed fulltime if not working multiple jobs and am decent friendly people. unfortunately the other half seem to have the deepest contempt for white british citizens, always expect something for nothing and rather ignorantly not mutter a single word of english. the government simply need to weed out the shit, not just asians and immigrants but the whole populus. hopefully then they mite find the 20odd pakis that caused 300 pounds worth of damage to my car and gave me a good hiding with a cricket bat
 rant over sorry bout the essay

At work, I am literally the only white person in my team, except for one black girl, everyone else is Indian, and it seems the Indians absolutely detest Pakistanis! 
I can't say I blame them to be honest. And before anyone decides to play the racist bandwagon card to me, I am talking from PERSONAL experience, so you may kindly EMA.

The biggest racial tension does occur between Indians and Pakistanis, that's true Sam.

They even openly refer to them as "Pakis" at work and I'm just sat there like this - 
I wish more white people worked in my team though... I feel so out of place!

I'm indian. I'm a trainee solicitor (not scrounging off the state - I'm also a special constable), take pride in being British
and yes....
HATE being put in the same category as muslims/pakistanis.
People see you've got brown skin and immediately think "Oh great, another fcukin paki" 
If only they were a little more educated and could distinguish....thats all

I don't have a problem with Indians, dated one for a long time, really lovely people who'll generally bend over backwards to help you out.
Pakistanis I find are very much out for themselves.

theres no need for any of it really. everyone is the same under the skin
