If I sent that to the local council, I'd probably be arrested for inciting racism. This is what we're sick of. At the end of the day, it's the council's fault for setting up these stupid "multiculturalism" policies which just cause more trouble than they prevent. If they just buggered off, stopped interfering and let people get on with it, it'd be a million times better. |

Not saying she was right- as far as I'm concerned, if you want to wear the hijab that's fine, but you should avoid jobs where it'll be a problem. You don't get many hardcore buddhists taking jobs in slaughterhouses then refusing to handle dead animals and crying discrimination. It just bothers me how flexible the truth's been in this one. All sides are at it, it's ridiculous.

And it's not just political correctness either - it's the government themselves that are doing the majority of the demonising of the islamic faith. |

I think Australia has to be one of the most tolerant multi-cultural societies I have experienced. If you had visited other areas outside of Canberra you would've noticed Australia is also made up of a lot of non-whites including Asians, Polynesians and Europeans who are all proud Australians. Like all societies there are the stereotypical racial boundaries that separate people but in no way would I say Australia is made up of a First and Second class society with whites being better off than non-whites. The majority of Australian's couldnt give a toss about class (no offence to any classy aussies about ![]() ![]() Regarding the Aboriginal problem - I would boldly suggest was an inheritance from the colonial days and the policies developed by the British Government which they have been trying to patch up since ![]() |

Sorry took me so long to get back -match of the day is on so need to prioritise.
Can of worms Welcome people who are willing to live by our laws and respect the traditions of our british way of life,but if not- don't stay here,don't take our tax payers money for dole ,housing etc. Oz is taking a stand against people who they see as a threat to the law abiding majority -simple as that. Expected the "your racist/bnp sh*t£"because if a british person even thinks about speaking up about this kind of situation its not allowed. For the record my family were immigrants to this country years ago,and took on the british way of life etc-I serve this country and will welcome any person who wants to live here aslong as they are law abiding and are willing to respect the beliefs/traditions of the british way of life that has been so attractive to them in the first place. This is a biking forum yes but this topic was posted in the idle banter section-not biking talk! husky ![]() |

There is NO such thing as a pure English or British. Most things we take for granted as "british" or "english" are pretty much if you go back to their origins derived from the mix of immigrants bringing their culture to this Island and not giving it up. Our country would be the poorer for doing what you want. Immigrants have been the back bone of this country. Without immigrants we would be poorer not just in culture but financially. There would be no Tescos, no Triumph, no Bank of England, no currency called the pound... I could carry on. But the essence is stark - "our" culture has developed from the mixing of so many. "Our" language is a fusion of Latin, Germanic and Gallic languages. There is no such thing as "pure" English. English is a mongrel language, as much as the English are a mongrel nation. Funny how you appear to know so little about the things you want to "protect" or see immigrants as a threat to when its immigrants that will bring new blood to it and instigate needed change. If a culture stagnates then ultimately it will fail, or rip itself apart in civil war as factions for change fight for needed change while factions resist. History teaches us that from Caesar through to the fall of the Soviet Union. |
