Just ignore them. Just be comforted by the fact that the silent majority are sick and tired by the thought police telling us just what we can and can`t think.

Don't think it's about what you can and can't think - most racists are well beyond that kind of instruction.

It's about inflammatory remarks which are just meant to cause strife.

Nope. It is about telling people what they can and can`t think/say and it is the usual suspects who round on people with the sole purpose of stifling debate. It is those people (yourself included) who sit and wait for the same argument time and time again. Talk about being narrow minded why not take a look at yourselves.

Go to Perth end enjoy it. It is a lovely place to live. If you want to move on think about giving Adelaide a go. It is a very underated place to live. The sun is out here and we all just about to head out for the day.Good luck.

Just been through the thread and nope, can't find a post where I've said what people can and can't think and/or say.

I have pointed out that you can't slate an entire race for some member's shortcomings. Sounds like common decency to me - not the thought police. That type of comment - where an entire race is slated - isn't debate at all.

Ironic that you make false accusations about people doing certain things in a supposed attempt to stop the stifling of debate. Don't you think?

Have you, or others, reflected on the fact her support came from mono-cultural Ipswich, not the electorates which have really been "overrun by Asians"? Probably exclusively without stress?

You might find some authoritative information here http://tinyurl.com/eumn2

something for which britishexpats is not exactly excelling.

Perhaps we need more Somalis to improve the quality of the debate generally.

If the "quality of the debate" does not improve it will be closed. Take the twaddle elsewhere and stop the snide remarks or I shall close it.

And now back to the original topic please......

i would suggest you look past pauline hanson ,by suggesting pauline hanson you are intimating i am a racist .I am infact refering to the true australian the black man ,he for sure doesnt want anymore of anybody here and infact wants his land back .So i would suggest before making assumptions that you stop thinking with that white attitude and thinking the whole world revolves around us WASPS. Do your self a favour and grab the nearest aboriginal and ask him/her if he/she wants more migrants here ,and if he says ''no'' is he being racist ?
I guess this thread has gone way off its original theme as they usually do ,but in years to come the somali population will speak its mind too on the matter of migration ,but as a white man with all the trappings materially of the white world ,i feel more and more that this truly is a black country ,culturally it is so far removed from my own culture .
I guess with the somalis they will find it hard ,they are black which isnt really that good in a prdominently white country ,and also they will neve r be accepted by the aboriginals as they are as culturally removed as we are [whites ].

If I'd asked about Scots/Irish or whatever I'm sure someone ( probably lots ) would have given the answer. Because I asked about Somalis it's all gone off on all sorts of tangents.


Maybe you should ask on one of the africans in australia expat type sites

Nearly all good curry houses in the UK are ran and owned by Pakistanis. Most corner shops are owned by Indians.
It seems we will finally be able to buy milk on a Sunday evening, but will still have to suffer shite curries

PS, Aren't generalisations, generally true, in general?
