Because no one actually gives a f**k about ‘which country is more racist’ it’s like discussing who sh*ts on his own people more - Assad or Alan Sugar, could go on forever it’s boring
I hope I have answered your question.

Because that was such a worthwhile contribution Why don't you provide something to discuss?

You don't get to decide what is boring for everyone else or what anyone else gives a f**k about, you only get to decide what is boring for you or what you give a f**k about. How about you actually bring up a point you want to discuss instead of the whinging?

“No one”. Well that’s just wrong. It has interested several people on the forum. Backseat modding is something that annoys me a lot.

I thought you were just someone who popped up like unwanted acne without making a meaningful contribution and fancied a bitch.
Let's be honest here, look who started the whole subject and he's got you all knee deep into it. Now he's probably laughing his tits off people are daft enough to keep banging on about it. Learn to ignore him already cos anything he says he's saying as a complete wind up

Right I will give it a go! Mayo man drops the hand and some auld doll in coppers and thinks it's fine because he denies it all. So, if this happened in the UK would he get away with it? Or would he go boom boom boom Prince Andrew on it?

You do understand that you are now contradicting your efforts to get a thread back on topic, which was never off topic in the first place?

My argument isn’t that they are comparable or incomparable, it’s that they shouldn’t be. It feels racist and divisive in itself and given the problem is something as a species we should be trying to eradicate and unite about, stupid to be discussing it using borders. Given Ireland has a shorter has a short history of immigration and a long history of emigration, it should be a society without racism, but then all societies should. One of the many policies that I like in the Labour manifesto is to teach kids British history, particularly the Empire, properly.

I suppose my point is that Ireland isn’t. It has its issues but not at the institutional level that the UK is. I appreciate that it shouldn’t be, but that should apply to all countries. Looked beyond race colour and creed. Simple stuff. But people seem to have trouble with that. And that’s how the appeal to people’s national instincts works to the extent that you might have no job, no education, no property and no prospects, but you still have the national myth of which you can claim to be a part of. That engenders the bogus victory of nationalism. However, at an electoral level, Ireland has rarely voted with the fringes who propagate the national myth as a virtue. The facts speak to this, even if occasional examples buck the trend. This is a major opponent to British nationalism which manifests itself in votes for the BNP and similar parties over the past ten years. Ireland has never supporter racialist platforms or policies to anywhere near the extent that Britain has.
