Im talking about all this fucking bollocks that Preston is the race hate capitol of britain. FFS ive lived in and around Preston all my life, the newspapers give the impression theres fucking running battles and stuff everyday like its some civil war third world country.

Fucking tossers, i bet theyve never even been to Preston, its should be illegal to print stuff like that, i mean whos actully inciting racial hatred here? Its certainly not the people and residents or Preston.

im slightly anoyed.

exactly. this country has such a bad rep, and its all because of the press imo. They have to exagerate everything. Theres 1 isolated incident of a racial attack, the whole town is a racial warzone. a couple of football fans get drunk and have a scrap, all of englands football fans are hooligans. most of the stuff they print is misleading and made up just to sell more copies.

"Preston's shame

PRESTON has suffered 500 race crimes last year — equivalent to 3.82 per 1,000 people.

Police figures show four out of five were by whites on Asians.

London has six places in the top ten worst areas for race crime.

1. Preston 3.82;
2. Leicester 3.80;
3. Hounslow 3.57;
4. Greenwich 3.31;
5. Barking & Dagenham 3.20;
6. Islington 3.14;
7. Rochdale 3.13;
8. North Manchester 3.12;
9. Tower Hamlets 3.04;
10. Westminster 3.03."


Something is obviously hapening there between certain poeple

Figures like that always make me laugh, does the figure for Preston mean that someone was 82% through completing a racial attack then got bored and wandered off?

Stats can be twisted to back up whatever the reporter's writing about.
