FTSE c5000 predicted by Christmas.
Really? Get an IG account then and short the hell out of the FTSE. You'll make a bundle.FTSE c5000 predicted by Christmas.

Being part of a multi-racial family doesn't mean you have more authority to comment on whether that image was used in a racist context. If cmoose now revealed he had a Syrian wife or Chinese uncle, would you take his views more seriously?
It is quite possible to not be a racist in certain aspects of your life, and turn a blind eye in others. It's not a binary thing.
In my opinion, that poster has been designed specifically to appeal to the racist argument in the EU vote, and it is the fact that you are so angered by this suggestion that is curious.
And you are entitled to that opinion as is cmoose to his. I have no problem with anyone having an alternative viewpoint to mine. It is quite possible to not be a racist in certain aspects of your life, and turn a blind eye in others. It's not a binary thing.

However, I resent being called a racist for my viewpoint which clearly isn't irrespective of my family makeup. However, given that makeup, it could be considered highly unlikely that anyone here is likely to be racist.
If you look back my view of the picture is clearly stated to be "for" the people in that picture, and concern for others that may be encouraged to risk all to follow what is clearly something that we have not planned to accommodate.
I don't care what political capital cmoose, or Farage want to make out of it either way. I am not looking at it that way. The people come first, no matter what race, religion or culture they come from.

All those involved in the referendum campaign need to speak out - especially Farage.
Agreed - all the front runners need to unite on this and broadcast a robust message.but at least he has admitted that leaving will have no impact on immigration or the money we pay the EU since both are a requirement for open trade

Sturgeon has just spoken on this - robust message, Not a fan of Sturgeon, but she has shown leadership on this issue
She's divisive and opportunistic, that's all. "We want independence, we don't need England's economic support or want them involved in our government. Except, no, we want Europe's economic support and involvement in our government. We don't want independence at all. But I want to be in charge of it all. Oh, and screw the English!!"Tuna said:

Yes, she has shown leadership; in the direction she wants to go regardless of the outcome. It was embarrassing to see the Scottish MEP begging this morning.

Do you believe a BBC journalist - http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/bbc-sima-kot... ?
You need to get this in context. I am not in any way suggesting that this is acceptable, however, Sima Kotecha was interviewing a drunk bloke in a pub about Brexit and immigration. He mumbled something about s and other immigrants. He was largely incoherent and sounded like he was about to fall over. News reports are portraying it as Sima Kotecha walking down the high street of her home town and being aggressively accosted by a Brexiter and being called a .The whole exchange was played on Radio 4 this morning.
In short, she has demonstrated that if you look hard enough you can find drunks in pubs using non pc and insulting terms when referring to ethnic minorities. That's hardly news.

Sad, but will settle down. Does need "Leaders" to be more visible/vocal.
Seen a few of these stories but believe little of them...Or a recording from today - https://streamable.com/kzfu
Antarctica springs to mind, closely followed by Syria/Libya.
The only slightly positive thing is the reaction of the other passengers, but I doubt Scrotey-baws registered any of that.
People like that are the true Vermin and we don't need to look far to find them unfortunately - either before or after the vote!

A certain type of malignant part of society seems emboldened to be as scummy as possible in public. Some very sad scenes on my local news.
There were race hate crimes before the referendum and there'll be race hate crimes after it. There was a spike after Lee Rigby and other significant events. Doesn't make it right of course, but the referendum isn't the only catalyst for racism.I'd say the far right movement on mainland Europe is a lot more prevalent than here - we're best off as far from that as possible

Indeed, and that is why I said they feel emboldened, and not created.I'd say the far right movement on mainland Europe is a lot more prevalent than here - we're best off as far from that as possible
I am hoping that decent people continue to speak out and the rats scurry back under their rocks.

Agree with all that about Miss Poison Ivy BUT she did make a robust statement to reassure EU migrants currently living in Scotland.
In a way it's a shame she is not a leader of a party in England. She would stand up for her principles and put a rocket up the aholes in Westminster..REALIST123 said:
