There are very few 'distinct races' anywhere in the world any more apart from some remote tribes which is why racism has become more political and geographical in its use.

So hang on a minute. I'm not allowed to mention that my husband doesn't particularly like the Welsh (not abusing them, not being negative about them, simply making a harmless statement) but you're allowed to call me ignorant, arrogant and bigoted? I think not. That is abuse.

I would quite happily pay for quality TV here - with no adverts like the BBC. The TV here is complete shite, anything decent (usually a BBC documentary anyway) is interupted with adverts, the nearer you get towards the end of a decent film, the harder and faster the adverts come.

The BBC make some of the finest programs in the world - FACT!!!

You are ignorant to the fact that Welsh people consider themselves a race.

Arrogant in that you see humor in my objection to you saying that your husband dislikes all Welsh. Has he met every Welsh person?

You readily admit your husband is bigoted and as you seem to agree and back his views up, I can assume you the same.

If you don't like it, report it to a moderator!

Welsh are just white people.
They're no different than Scottish or English people.

(Apart from the fact that English people are superior.)

Superior in thinking they are superior! A traditional English trait!
