Mass immigration is a tenet of American colonialism and here we have an American trying to tell us how wonderful and amazing it is that a culture that has lasted a thousand years is being destroyed and we should like it because that's the way it is in California.

My Bengali isn't the best sorry, but I think it reads something like...
"The Jewes are the men..."
I think it may be spelt incorrectly.

As a Brit I can proudly say that we are the most bastardized nation on the planet; a wonderful hybrid of just about every ethnic group you can imagine.
Americans are just the same
And what's wrong with that?
Absolutely nothing.
If you want to visit somewhere that has much less diluted and saturated ethnic complexities, then visit Eastern Kenya where the most "pure" homsapien DNA can be found and the result of much less cross-breeding having occurred.
And what's wrong with that?
Absolutely nothing.
The British are a wonderful blend of what happens when the homosapiens integrated over thousands of years with the neanderthal specie and so unless you're from a remote area of Kenya, then in a non-geographical sense; you're just as "foreign" as anyone else.
Be less concerned about "why" there are signs in Bengali outside a London tube station...be more concerned about why those in power are deceitful corrupt and untrustworthy liars who will do anything to retain power.
And if I were an American, I wouldn't waste time using the "its in our constitution" excuse drawn from an outdated and archaic set of "rules" written down years ago by a load of old white guys; id ask WHY you're only able to choose between a man who has clear mental incapacity, memory issues and possible dementia, or a man who is a convicted racist homophobic misogynistic criminal?
2 great nations that are still living in the past.
The British and Americans are the most hypocritical and cross bred interacial peoples on the planet and until the day that we accept and embrace the latter and reject and oppose the former,...then the world will never change.

Originally posted by Tab View PostWell perhaps you should try harder when ranting on a public forum about immigration. The truth is you saw a twitter post or Facebook post stating the lie, it confirmed your evident bias, so you took it at face value and then repeated it for others to do the same.

Originally posted by Geddy2112 View PostI don't know did you read on social media if any dares to try and discuss immigration (or vote for Brexit) etc then you must label them a racist? That is why immigration is suffering because of people like you who basically demonise anyone who tries to fix it or even discuss it. Like I said you should be ashamed..
Originally posted by Geddy2112 View PostHowever next time you are in Whitechapel look around. You will see the signs. Or if you can't be arsed use Google Earth. So one I'm not a liar and two I'm certainly NOT a racist.
Originally posted by Geddy2112 View PostGood idea as you clearly have a huge bee in your jolly bonnet and are vastly ill informed.
So much for me leaving it alone.

So you object to the Tube sign being in another language IN ADDITION to English? Personally, this is not something that would bother me but it changes the suggestion that Arabic/Bengali/Elf had REPLACED English as the primary language.

Originally posted by Tab View PostAh yes, when you saw all those road and tube signs in Arabic.
Originally posted by Tab View PostHowever, discussing this with people who say things like being the only "white chap" walking down the road, is not something I am happy doing. So please imagine me un-happy while I am typing this.
Originally posted by Tab View PostI live 25 minutes from East London, my entire family going back as far as I can research lived in East London, many in the Whitechapel area. I know it well. There are no Arabic signs for me to see, so I am not sure why you want to die on that hill. Also, I never called you a racist, I said your post was xenophobic.
And for the record I have no problem with anyone from any country living here. Like I said my better half is Polish. The problem I do have is those people not adopting traditional British values and wanting us to change to suit them. That is a huge lack of respect and something I would never dream of asking another country to do for me. Hence multiculturalism will never work because they do not want it to work.
Apologies they are not in Arabic (no need to keep clutching at that straw) but some more examples of 'foreign language street signs.'

Just as a side I would imagine English is NOT the primary language in Whitechapel. Like I said I'm making an observation, which I, in my opinion is not right out of respect. However that makes me xenophobic, racist, bigoted etc. No it does not at all and I totally resent the suggestion. I'm all for multiculturalism but I can't make it work if the 'other side' is unwilling and that is the huge problem.

Hi Geddy
So you've never been to Wales, Scotland or Cornwall? You really didn't need to go far to see examples of dual language signs.
Secondly, I work in Mental Health in East London so have come into contact with many of the people you're stereotyping. In fact a number of them are good friends. they are in the main friendly, hard-working and care more about this country than I ever could. My boss is a Muslim and I work alongside Christians, Hindus, Sikh and Jewish. Their English is always excellent. In fact the younger generation/s almost always speak good English, it's only the older generation/s that tend not to. Remember trying to learn a second language when older is much more difficult than doing it when young.
All the best

You are pointing out an non issue. Okay my mistake they are not Arabic, they are as you claim Bengali. Same meat different gravy. The fact is they are not in English regardless of what language they are in and that is my issue. I've been all round France, the Netherlands, Poland, Australia etc etc and not once have I seen other countries languages used. I mean you can't get a more diverse city than Melbourne but at the time of my visit, all signs in English only.
Originally posted by Geddy2112 View PostSo me telling the truth is not allowed now? Pointing out the truth is now xenophobic, racist or bigoted. Give over. That attitude is exactly one of the reasons we are in this 'immigration' dilemma. How is me pointing out the truth that I was the only white chap in a street xenophobic or racist? It's not it's called an observation and a truthful one at that.
Originally posted by Geddy2112 View PostLike I said I made a mistake regarding the Arabic, but the principle is the same. No need to hide behind the 'xenophobic' word we all know exactly what you meant.

Originally posted by Geddy2112 View PostYes I think it is very clear. And yes you just can't leave it alone. Keep clutching at the straws though. However it's not me who is the problem here. Also I note you never attacked Herlock for basically posting the exact same things I did. Funny that.
