We don't feel British, say Asians

dirtydog, I asked you a question a few pages ago that I believe you might have missed. I'll repeat it for you now:

To @if ®afiq, he might feel that way but clearly a lot of his fellow Asians do not.

I'd like you to go further, I'd like to hear you admit that you're happy someone like @if is here in the UK because he sounds like a decent, intelligent human being and this country benefits from his being here. Is that something you'd be happy to say?

You know I can't say that

carvegio · 30 Jul 2007 at 19:50

Because you're racist?

Dirtydog - does the quote in your signature by a "foreigner in a foreign country" herald you changing your ways?

Why do these threads always veer off in the same pointless direction?

So, even though he (and I) are both hard-working, decent human beings, none of that matters because we're non-white. Is that what you're saying? You are not happy that we're here in the UK.

So tell me, where would you have us "returned" to?

With reference to DD, "missed" is simply a euphemism for "deliberately ignored".

My parents were born in India and came here quite young and I was born here. I would like to think I am English/British.... What else could I possibly be?

This country has a great history and I am proud to say I was born here.

I don't think that people such as yourself are the issue here

As phykll has subtly pointed out.

Because some people refuse to stay on topic, I think

Because it's the same old people spewing the same old crap.

It isn't that suprising considering most of the posts this guy starts and the reasons he starts them.
