Which is still how most of the UK lives. But the BNP and racist insults are a different kettle of fish.

Should English footballers and others have to put up with monkey chants?

This was a good one

As usual one of those doing it used the old line "I have many Oriental friends"

Should Lewis Hamilton have to put up with this? It seems so, im sure spanish footballers in the UK would not..

But you cant be racist in Spain, its just taking the mick out of people. So the next spainsh person I see in the UK I will call manuel or diago and mock his skin colour, call him a donkey killer and the fact he cant say jimmy

Funny that i have heard of many Spainish people in spain complaining of racism in the UK and elsewhere. possibly they were like some Brits happy to hand it out but dont like it in return. In fact I have heard some of my Wifes family mainly the older ones happy to insult and disrespect other races and religons yet get upset if they hear of Phills being racially discrimated agaisnt
