He couldn't answer her question.

"What is it about foreign accents that upsets you?"

No answer. Blah blah, parents get upset about it. Do they really? Upsetting is it?

He sounded a bit racist.

That wasn't her question. She used the word language, not accent.

You sound like the sort of person who hears what you want to hear and present it as fact.

"What is it about foreign accents that upsets you?"

No answer. Blah blah, parents get upset about it. Do they really? Upsetting is it?

He sounded a bit racist.

He explained his point well, that when you have too large a group enter on mass, they don't integrate as well as if its a drip fed process. That creates friction.

So not only can you not comprehend the written word, you also cant comprehend the spoken word.

He might have explained it, but it doesn't make it acceptable - at least to me.

Imagine you lived abroad, and had kids at a local school in say Spain. You also knew some other brits who had kids at the school. You spoke English to these other English families during pick up and drop off.

Then you heard the teacher of your kids saying he was fed up the foreign English parents talking English at the playground - and talked about how they were non-integrating scumbags - and clearly it seems he would rather they went back home or had never come in the first place.

How do you think the foreign parents at his school feel now?

Does that really make a big difference then - language / accent - see post above.

Foreign languages wind you up do they?

Jesus wept. What is wrong with this fking country.

id be surprised if he is still a teacher in the near future.

Good point - if he was at my kids school the head and PTA would be getting a stiff letter.

Get that fking intolerant racist "teacher" away from my kids please - I'd rather he didn't fill their heads with nasty bile about the foreign kids at the school, thanks very much.

Given everything is racist to you, it seems with your new tyranny nearly 52% of the country would be out of a job.
You must have used up a whole box of tissues jerking off over Penny adopting your 'its all racism' line.

She's fantastic. I don't always agree with her, but she's logical, down to earth and ambitious. The SNP might be her next target, but No 10 can't be too far behind.

[Meridius]

That Laurie Pennys pretty cute though. Bet she'd hate me for saying that

So you were OK with him complaining about all the foreign parents at his school talking all foreign and being, you know foreign.

I'd be interested to know if they teach foreign langauges at his school. Probably ones he thinks are "acceptable", like French.

That wasn't his point and you bloody well know it. He was talking about the cohesiveness of society.

Next week we have Nigel Farage and Will Self on.

I really look forward to seeing the smug Will Self getting his arse handed to him on a plate!

I reckon that Self will chicken out!

How the fck wasn't that his point?

That was exactly his point. It was his only corroboration for his point.

Parents at school talking foreign was the driver for his temple throbbing anger & bile.

Should not be near kids.

[gizlaroc]

Once again ///ajd.

These people have genuine concerns and while you call them racist, and say they are being silly and not discussing those concerns you are pushing them into doing something radical. Like?? Oh I don't know? Brexit?

People have been trying to discuss these concerns for a while now, bit the moment they try they get absolute fkwits telling them they're being stupid, that they are racist, that thy are bigots. In the end if no one will discuss it you take what is on offer, Brexit, Trump etc. etc.

It is people like you who have got us where we are now.

People like me, not being bothered about parents talking foreign languages.

Yeah, how fckng dare I not descend into a racist rant at the mere sound of a foreigner.

What am I thinking being all open minded and tolerant.

Will we start running "hate classes" in these schools with angry teachers so our kids grow up with the "right mindset"?

Brillo on fire tonight. What a wonderful take down of Castro's Cuba.

Jesus wept. What is wrong with this fking country.

You are deciding someone is racist because you didn't think he did a very good job of answering a question he wasn't even asked.

There is a massive difference in a class room between everyone speaking English in different accents, and everyone speaking a different language.

You've made a mistake. Your response is to make it worse. Do you really think your contribution makes you appear intelligent?
