It exists quite a lot, but it's (in 'my' case) okay because we're taking jobs and we're those pesky forens and white, how can there be racism against us???

I had an argument with one of those stop the boats clowns on twitter a while back who started calling me racist against him. Same fella was happy to see boats get sunk with people in. Being a thick evil scumbag goes hand in hand with being a vile racist whopper.
 
Nope. As ever you could draw a 40 mile exclusion zone around where I live near Swindon, for culture, anything useful, anything good quality, anything reasonably priced.
Can confirm.

Y'know, ironically, the National Trust and the Arts and Humanities Research Counil are both headquarted in Swindon. Most of their staff commute in from Bristol because Swindon is a cultural desert 😆
 
places to live too
Portugal as well for this but mainly if you are Brazilian, African or Asian. Has led to landlords exploiting people and people living in cramped conditions as renters become more desperate.

Government are trying to tackle this but will be very difficult.

People should understand that Institutional racism can only be eradicated if the people within the systems aren’t racist themselves.
 

Worked in a bar in the North East and would see a manager put all CVs with a foreign name in the shredder. Some (3rd eye) Brits like to claim that institutional racism does not exist in the U.K. when in actual fact it is very much alive and kicking.

This happens in the US.
You think LaKeisha Williams or her brother Tyrone are getting a call back before Emily or Jake Murphy?

I've seen that from all different angles over the years. I had a black supervisor who didn't want to employ Asians. I work now with 6 Muslim lads who made it rather difficult for a Sikh mechanic who worked with us, the problem being he liked a drink which was frowned on and he clearly had mental health issues which was seen as "not manly", they sacked him in the end. They lovely to me and call me the "works Mom" but have to close my ears to their views on the world and especially on "westernised women". I've just summed up over the years that everyone hates someone where ever it is in the world
 
What have you got against Stonehenge. ?

View attachment 230137
I hate Stonehenge. The A303 does right by it and it’s on my route to Selhurst. Stupid rubberneckers going 3mph past a pile of stones. Murder during the school holidays. Stonehenge; pile of cack.
(I have found a diversion now but that is like driving through parts of the Appalachian trail - not the good parts either.)

Left at the roundabout just before and join back at the next one down? That's the way I have been the last few times (in the other direction) and has not been too bad.

I’m coming down from Bath so used to get on at the roundabout where you get off. I have a cut through via a couple of villages and Larkhill camp. I carry on that past where you turn off to rejoin the A303 and join at Weyhill at the top of the Downs. ****** Stonehenge!
