Personally, I am glad the moderators left this post. One of the best for ages.

I don't agree that this is a one-sided forum (thus demonstrating my own point
).
The whole idea of a forum is that it is a place for open discussion, so we shouldn't be closing people down.
There are certainly people who come on this part of the site and deliberately write inflammatory remarks about the U.K. (Wildmark for one). I can't for the life of me understand why they do it. Best response is to simply ignore them.
There are others who come on here with a perspective from "the other side" that is well-put, carefully-deliberated, and thought-provoking (and usually balanced, even if you don't particularly agree with or like their point of view).
I wouldn't want to ban, or bar, or censor the latter type of person from this part of the site because they make me question my own biases or subjectivity.
Like I said, if you don't like them just ignore them. We're treading on dangerous ground if we try to ban someone just because we don't like what they say.

If you have to leave to get what you want, then so be it. I've realised that being economically disenfranchised relative to your countrymen is one of life's greatest poverty. And it's not all about money either. Quality of life and values are important too.

And I can also see why you'd like to keep the thread running, because you've found some single-celled pond-scum who share your bigotted views. Fact remains though - this is a support forum for people who have lived abroad and are now seeking to return to the UK for reason that are, frankly, none of your ****ing business. There are plenty of other sections of this site where you can peddle your sub-moronic sectarianist shite - I suggest you go seek them out, assuming you can navigate your way around your fisher-price keyboard with that white hood on your head.

Maybe it was my ability to use long words? Oh wait, no ... it was because I took issue with you and your Nazi point-of-view, wasn't it. You didn't make any points. You spouted a load of half-arsed bigotted shite that would probably get a laugh out of your mates on the Stormfront forums. I think it's brave of you to admit to your BNP tendencies on this highly anonymous forum - if you were a big man, and not some pathetic reject though, you'd hoist a dirty great BNP poster in your front window. Sound like a plan?
Merry Christmas Adolph
