Could you confirm who the WE is in this post, and who is the THEY, before I reply to your seemingly racist comments.

I knew that the racist bit would be thrown at me at some time. Just to put you straight i am not a racist my best man is a muslim who was a member of the GB hocky team at Munich. why oh why do you have to toe the line on who and what is a racist. I could call you one for your last post. Thats racist to me? get off your high horse and get some common sense about you. I happen to be a trade union member and left of centre at that but i dont happen to swallow all that is thrown at me by them nor will i by you.

May I answer on my behalf who I jokingly call the "we" and "they".

"They" are the mysterious people who get more benifits or who's planning permission goes through or who "get away" with it....whatever it is."They" are the powers that be....employers...management...politicians..police ...Football clubs....rival dart teams....in fact anybody who seems to be more than me or "Us" .
More....being richer...influential....luckier....smarter....more go getting...fortunate...more handsome....younger...noisier...quieter...taller.. .intelligent,

"We" are whoever I feel Im with today.
Nothing to do with race culture or religion.....

So you refuse to answer a question?

Let's just take it that THEY are Asians and WE are the white, of any background, Polish, Irish, Welsh, because if we look the same that's okay.

Do you know the statistics for ethnic minorities as a whole in this country as a percentage?
Obviously not.

Go do some research, and start answering difficult questions when asked otherwise you look worse when you try to avoid a question than if you answer badly. Which was the case with your dire post #112

And you're a trade union member?
This has what to do with whether the comments or observation you made was racist?
