Not Just Racist But Uneducated As Well
Answers
I saw a 'Neighbours from hell' programme last week about a lovely young Polish couple who both had jobs and bought a house to start a family in Wales - next door to this horrible bigot who on one occasion after a lot of racial abuse tried to burn their house down, white rightly he was arrested and jailed.

//Can I just point out to you that ''Mr Smith who lives 2 doors down'' is Czech. //
if the guy 2 doors down was indeed Czech, he'd be mr kovar, unless he'd decided to disguise his heritage. why should he do that when he'd then be identifying with possibly the most racist bigoted nation on the planet?

Racist? More like xenophobic, surely?
Now the hair has been split, there has been a bit of an undercurrent in the last few years there.

There was also a story doing the rounds whereby a shop seeling Polish goods/foodstuffs was opened recently.
The owners put a sign in the window stating that only Polish people were allowed in the shop.
It was swiftly removed when the matter was reported to North Wales Police, who paid the owners a visit and asked them to remove the sign.

Hypo (09:08)....Not more than anybody else in the UK, but they do like their language translated properly, and this is coming from a English only-speaking person who has lived since he was 15, which 46 years ago now.
I think a lot of people have missed the point here. Where the graffiti occurred is not important. You would have thought that anybody who is going to scrawl racist remarks all of the place could at least take the trouble to spell properly. But in my book, it just shows how ignorant and uneducated they are. But a racist being ignorant and uneducated is hardly news, is it ?

Hypo..."butt" is a South Walian colloquial word meaning your best mate or friend.
I should point out that Mr Tan is not the most popular person in Wales at the moment. He changed the Cardiff strip to red, from blue, which it has had for more years than anybody can remember. The result is they have had to ditch their informal name of the Bluebirds. He has never successfully explained why he made such a strange move, to a football that has existed since 1899.
But as a Swansea boy, I think that is enough about Cardiff City !

Nope. Sadly unavailable on YouTube is a superb segment from the last series of Charlie Brooker's TV Wipe, in which Doug Stanhope sums up the way in which it's the low-skilled types who do work that literally -anybody- else can do who feel most threatened by incomers (including those of the same ethnicity as them).
From another angle, the 'threat' of incomers might be a sign that they're in a cushy job and fresh competition means less money to go around -and- having to work harder. With families to raise that is primal buttons being pushed.
btw, I should apologise for not reading the article yet. Will do so in due course.

I have made this point many times here on AB, and I shall make it again.
The vast majority of Poles are here to work, and they are here because there were job vacancies to fill. The vacancies that our home-grown unemployed couldn't seem to find when they were job hunting. In Merthyr Tydfil, not far from me there is a thriving Polish community, because a local slaughterhouse needed workers that the local community couldn't or wouldn't provide.
There is a similar situation a few miles away in Llanelli...again EC workers have filled the empty vacancies. I am not that familiar with Wrexham but I would expect the same situation to exist there.
In Swansea we have a Amazon warehouse the size of a few soccer pitches and overwhelmingly the staff are not taken from the Welsh unemployed.
Perhaps our home-grown racists should put the paintbrushes down and look for paid work, instead of sprawling graffiti all over the place. Perhaps they should knock on their Polish neighbours doors, introduce themselves and find out if there are any jobs going where THEY work.

short of a full-blown communist setup, the only way you can get unemployed youngsters into manual labour or 'icky' jobs like the slaughterhouse is to stop giving them fancy career aspirations and talking them into taking 6 GCSEs, rather than 8, not going to sixth form because it would be a bit over their heads and only the class swots should be, in any way, encouraged to think about university.
You need to crush the ambition out of them at an early age. It's mental cruelty to shove people with advanced qualification into animal slaughter, cleaning loos and all the other things people with really quite comfortable - not to mention well-paid - jobs insist the unemployed be shoved into.
If you're already in the slaughterhouse job, leading by example, so to speak, then this isn't aimed at you.
