Mobbed at Tesco

I have mixed feelings on immigration too. One thing that frequently crosses my mind when the topic comes up is this. What about Brits going out? It seems to me that the opinions people express puts them broadly into one of two categories. Those are are worried about immigration into Britain, and those that are not. Of the former, it seems rare to hear of concern about skilled Brits going to the US, Australia and New Zealand to live, or British ex-pat colonies turning some little med settlement into a whitewashed version of Blackpool.

Personally I don't care either way as long as people coming in behave themselves, and people going out remember that they are effectively ambassadors to the UK so should also be respectful of their new neighbours, wherever they may be. The only thing that really, really gets under my skin is when people relocate to a different area and different culture, and then start trying to call the shots.

 

I'm afraid that everbody's many people's children will now be forced to emigrate to leave their Uni debts behind.

 

Ah yes, uni debts. Surely that has to go down in history as one of the biggest scams ever.

Is it just me that's noticed that in a few short years, the prospect of going to uni has changed from being something that is only for those that really, really are determined to go, to push themselves as far as they can academically, to excel, to more recently where it has become an expectation that you will go to uni and do a degree?

I speak to younger folk nowadays who simply can't comprehend the idea of not doing a degree, because all they've known all their lives is that it is expected of them, and they expect it of themselves. I'm sure not everyone is like that, but the point is, in my experience at least, it used to be the other way round. When I was at school, nobody expected to go to uni. If anyone even applied, it was the talk of the town that someone you knew personally, might be going to university.

Of course in those days, it wasn't so heavily publicised and promoted. If you wanted to go to uni, you had to take the initiative yourself, and actually go to the uni and and try to speak to someone etc. Nowadays universities advertised on prime time TV and radio, and they are big business. Something else changed at some point back then too. If you were lucky enough to get into uni back then, your tuition was free and you could even get grants to do it. Now its the other way round and you have to commit to huge debt.

Is it just me that thinks a generation has been brainwashed in order to be milked in adulthood?

The worst of it is, a degree doesn't even prove anything other that you did what was expected of you. It doesn't prove that you can do a particular job. In many companies it doesn't even mean you'll get paid more or are more likely to be recruited. I don't have a degree. I went to uni part time but only to HNC level. I've never had any problem getting a job in my chosen industry, or excelling in my role. I'm not suggesting a degree is worthless, but it certainly isn't worth nearly £40,000.

 

Guys when I say it was racial , I ment that maybe in a small village in asia (as we can not discriminate race) it`s pretty normal to shop like you where looting and be really proud of your 10 years old kid that is pushing everyone away .....an english person would have take what they needed an give space to other peoples , before or late a fight will start at tesco because of those peoples and no more reduced to clear for no one .

is it racial , if some nepalese will take all the nuts and the local squirrels will may have no food?

is it racial , if some east european have eated all the big carps in the river ?

is it racial , if some foreigner start to eat all the ducks in the river?

is it racial , it some foreigner will flash the light to let you through and then hit you ? abusing the good english manner? it called flash for cash

is it racial , if some foreigner will not neutering the cat and leave it behind when will move to the next home?

is it racial , if I got to rent a van and the company will ask me for my nationality before give the van , just because someone have smashed the van against a friend car and all the 5 peoples in the car suffered whiplash?

is it racial if your local fish and chips had to remove the sign with english owner while next door there is a massive halal sign ?

is it racial , if the taxi driver at christmas will charge you 3 time more and then tell you that for him is a normal day ?

is it racial if someone from a different country will came to Uk to get free NHS?

and don`t even want to touch other offence .

 

Thank you Sal.
What is on the news tonight regarding a possible reciprocal house fire is sickening. It sounds like an honour killing to me. Something that white Caucasians do NOT carry out,
Jenny

 

Cor, you seem to be having a lot of problems with 'foreigners' where you live.

 

Yep, its racial if you want to call it that.
PC Britain has gone too far.

It's people coming into this country and abusing it.
You have listed a good few examples Sal.

And Victoria, you ask what is wrong with the UK these days.
United Kingdom????
Its so full of all and sundry from the rest of the world there is no way the term "United" can still be applied.
We have some good people living here from other countries.
But at the same time we are also importing the dregs of the world, just because we want to look good, or out politicians want to look good.
Either way we are taken for mugs.

 

sal yes all those things are 'racial' as you are just highlighting a lot of the differences between us as races.
My own personal biggest annoyance is integration!!!! why are we expected to/encouraged to integrate? Most of the advertisements on the TV now feature a black man/white woman, or white man/black woman particularly the furniture/bedding ads!?!?! Why?????? are we really heading for one big 'melting pot'??

Val

 

Scrungee , I`m a foreigner myself and I live in a area populated by loads of other foreigner most of them asian , i do find loads of tropical fruits and veg that help me with my garden , but at the same time I`ve got tesco express that look like a punjaby shop , where most of the time there is always police and ambulancee outside , there is rubbish everywhere as kids don`t have any respect , or polish beers on the floor as it cool in poland to through cans around , romenian coming at night an stealing all the clothes left outside or in the bean for the charity , pakistani that will always keep old rubbish outside the house because they don`t throw away anything and they driving and parking like the english law don`t apply on them , or the taxi drivers that are cleaning the taxi and leaving all the rubbish on the floor ...... not even the graffiti on the wall are in english anymore

 

I've just sorted out a few dozen Tesco receipts for uploading, all the items being (non-pork as I don't eat meat and can't play that card) reduced by white members of Tesco staff when potential Asian/whatever customers didn't get a look in:

for example

 

I'm actually quite puzzled by your post Val, it's almost like you are suggesting that black people are a different species than white people. What is wrong with the melting pot, as you put it?

I' m personally all for integration, the sooner we all learn to live along side each other in a mutually respectful manner, the sooner we all have a better world to live in

 

If we were talking plants here it would be so much easier.
Foreign invaders and all that jazz.

Japanese knotweed springs to mind, for one.

 

It's not as simple as that Yvonne.

Black Africans are the only true Homo sapiens. The migration that left Africa mated with Homo neanderthalensis, and a later migration mated with another humanoid species to produce the asiatic races. So anyone out of Africa is a slightly different species to those who remained.

The problem is, its not a melting pot, its loads of different cultures all crammed together and sticking to what they have done back home. We've got Eastern Europeans taking fish out of the rivers and Nepalese lifting their skirts up to do a dump on the pavement.

 

So in other words, we have been stirring the genetic melting pot since the human species began then? Why do we need to stop now? As for the behaviour of different nationalities, have you had a wander around the streets of Blackpool on a Saturday night?

We have british people who fish in our rivers, we have british people doing their toilet in the the street and we have british people stealing what isn't theirs. These behaviours are not specific to any nationality.

 

OK we have our own, so why do we need to import more?
