EU Voting Purely About Migrants?

[Zamo]

Where have you been hanging out if you think you can identify immigrants by seeing them.

 

The real world?

 

Did she see the UKIP poster with echoes of nazi propaganda, and the long queue of brown faced people?

 

It isn't the brown faces that people don't want, it is the burden. It is selfishness not racism.

 

The whole statement it is an excuse for ignoring the will of the majority is ignoring the fact that racists exist in the country. Isn't it time to condemn racists Zamo?

 

It isn't ignoring the fact that racists exist. I specifically said that there will be racists pleased if we reduce immigration but that isn't a reason for not doing it. I hear some racists are also fond of beer... shall we deny the general public that too to stop racists getting what they want?

The real world?

 

 

Are you saying you can pick out an immigrant just from the way they look?

[Eater Sundae]

The political class. Hence we see a leave vote that would have been impossible 20 years ago.

 

Is that all? If there is an increase in harrasment of foreigners, isn't that part of the backlash? Or are they just collateral damage?

[Quik]

So are there racists in the country or not?

 

Of course there are. There are in every country.

[redfox]

Yes he is saying that

 

Reminds me of a certain national socialist party from the 30's - went on to cause a lot of trouble

What about the political class who were involved in "leave"?

Good, I am pleased you don't ignore they exist. I'd like you to speak out against racists who are lifting on your message. And don't get me wrong, even if I don't agree with your message, I do understand it.

 

Just like you feel it is up to Muslims to condemn and stop terrorists, it is now up to people like you, having got what you want (?) to make sure that racists don't occupy your agenda. And that is a very difficult business, because, whether you like it or not, the UKIP message is one that legitimises racists. And I don't fancy becoming the victim of that legitimisation.

 

But as you keep reminding us, Muslims have that duty with terrorists, so now you and other Leave voters have that duty with racists. Eradicate the problem so it doesn't rear its ugly head again.

What about the political class who were involved in "leave"?

 

They sided with the people.

[tzijlstra]

Of course there are. There are in every country.

 

The message above also applies to you then.

Ive a horrible feeling that when we "only" get EU lite - ie free movement, not "sending 'em back" there will be a backlash against people like Boris and his new government (party?) and the rest of the "leave" campaign and that backlash will be violent.
