Big Supes Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Maybe she is. People hate labels, but I have no qualms in stating that I don't agree with masses of non-English speaking immigrants coming to the UK to join an already established community of people that have done everything in their power to terraform their local area to cater for their way of life. If you can take anything from this video, it shows others also feel the same. I don't agree with verbal abuse, although we don't know what sparked this argument. I can only try and make an informed 'vote' next time we have our say, but even then, you're merely trading one party of idiots for another.

hogmaw Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 London isn't that bad. In fact was there today for the day, just got back. I had several encounters with people for various reasons, as you do; shops, traffic, parking etc, and each time everyone was courteous and polite. Even the bloke who I almost bumped into in the car. For the record, I'm white, and all the people I referred to just now were not. It's ironic that some of us quite rightly disagree with racial stereotyping, yet are happy to stereotype a city in which they've probably never lived and rarely visit.

It's ironic that some of us quite rightly disagree with racial stereotyping, yet are happy to stereotype a city in which they've probably never lived and rarely visit. Exactly this, it is wonderful place and this is coming from someone who has worked in many cities, it isn't the best in the world but it is a great place. I use public transport on most days and it great, hardly use the bus but the DLR is superb and I have hardly ever seen an incident on public transport, not that it doesn't happen but considering the millions that use it every day a bit of disagreement is pretty normal and no doubt will happen but that goes for anything in life to be honest. An I have helped loads of people on the tube in terms of helping taking up luggage and prams and whilst my wife travelled during her pregnancy she had a lot of people helping her and we still do. An I bet you if I passed out in the middle of the street, a tonne of folks would come and help. Have had several conversations with strangers over the years and I love the way we come together when needed. By the way, this women is clearly a retard, no self respecting women would behave like that in front of their children... that speaks volume of her attitude and mannerism.

Paul Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Tribalism, pure and simple. If you think that's abusive you should hear the wife when I get home late and, err, joyous....

j_jza80 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 London isn't that bad. . I suppose it depends on where you're comparing it to. It's certainly nicer than Paris, but if you compare it to other northern European capitals, or British cities like York, Edinburgh, or Coventry, not so much.

kitch79 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Norfolk is probably the most easy going place around But my god do they need more mobile phone masts!

imi Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Don't think it was down to tolerance, more fear for his own life. There is no way I'd want to tackle her in that riled up state. its his job.... - - - Updated - - - What I never understand is how all the other passengers either just sit and watch or record on their phones. agree....

hogmaw Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Curious as to why you put Coventry on that list. I lived there for 3 years, it has no redeeming features whatsoever. I also lived in London for 20, it has plenty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Seen 3 more videos this morning of this happening over the weekend on London buses, so this isn't an isolated incident by any stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I'm afraid incidents like this are on the rise, the hate crime statistics, especially against Jews and Muslims, in rising. This is becoming both a symptom and a catalyst of greater British society's escalating rejection of organised religion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Maybe a slight rise in them occurring, but also a big increase in them being reported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
