was driving out of london yesterday only to find myself held up in traffic for nearly 2 hours while idiots drove around in old toyota carinas and other equally crap cars hanging out of the windows and sunroofs waving iraqi flags and shouting things in strange languages.
the police stood by and let it all happen and stopped me from driving every possible route out of the city towards the M1 while it went on.
WTF whs it all about?

Our society is geared to help the minorities and not the majoritys. It's disgusting.

They won the asian cup, i don't deny them any of the jubilation at all tbh after what their country has been put through.
Half the battle with all this racial tension is to quell the anger, there are decent human beings that are asian as well remember.

what asian cup?
I understand they want to celebrate but was there any need to block the main route out of london with toyotas of various models? and then the police do nothing whatsoever about it 
oh, and then stopped in the services on the way back, carpark was full. except the 3 spaces some muslims had taken up with 1 car so that they could line up on their hands and knees and pray
and do the words: 'please' and 'thankyou' exist in some asian languages? seems not during my weekend in London. May as well have gone to Bagdad.

Football, if you had listened to the news rather than your greatest hits of the BNP album you would have known to dodge an area full of iraqi football fans

I would be pissed off if it were Aisans, Africans, Irish,Mixed, Scottish, German or White. There is no need to drive around waving flags out the window. Pisses me off when people do that.

was listening to bbc London all day driving round, didnt hear a thing about it. And why do you assume I listen to a BNP album? I have said nothing that could be classed as racist, merely made an observation. wether it was Scottish, Italian or Polish people that pissed me off all weekend in london their nationality or skin colour or any racist views isnt an issue.

If England had won the world cup and you never knew only to be stopped in traffic by England fans would there have been an issue?

no, not annoyed as much because London is in England. it is also the Capital of England.
I feel they only blocked up the streets and paraded round with flags on the busiest route out of the city to stir things up. It worked as well. why not celebrate in a park or area out of the way? why celebrate by blocking roads?
because they wanted a reaction from people, they wanted to cause as much disruption as possible.

so your advice is not to drive out of london on a main road every time a foreign team win some type of sporting event?
it all boils down to 1 thing. ignorance, and ignorance that I witnessed all weekend from certain people in London.

I don't live there 
I could tell you exactly where the asylum seekers and ethnic minorities live in Glasgow and i'd be avoiding them if anything like that was going on.

My point exactly. There isn't an area designated to Iraqs to do as they please, block roads etc. If they want to do that then play around in the mosques/temples/whatever carpark. Dave was going about his business simply trying to reach the M1. And he was prevented from doing so.

whinging northeners.
London is like it every day with some of protest or celebration. Stop moaning.
And as for the praying, if you understood anything but the english way, you would know they pray in a certain direction.
Being moay about london traffic is one thing, but its a bit out of like to slate off their religious ways. Not all arabs are bomb jacket wearing fruitcakes.
I may as well sit here and call you a chav and a boyracer becuase you own a modified car... ?
