I wonder if the seller would have insisted on a birth certificate as proof of being English?

[Islay]

Corby I would have loved to have gone along and then shown him by birth cert and told him to stick his car where the sun doesn't shine!!

I didn't say that they were foreigners, they are just not English, and I don't think that they themselves would wish to be described as such.

[THECORBYLOON]

Is there a valid reason for selling a car only to English folk?

[Zacs-Master]

Let's get back to your OP AOG. Would you like it to be possible to place an advert which states that you only sell to English people?

I don't think that he would have been particularly bothered that he couldn't do business with you, because you don't seem to be a very nice person at all.

How would he determine whether the buyer is English?

As THECORBYLOON and Islay have pointed out, a birth certificate would have to be produced.

AOG - you asked 'Can a person no longer sell his possessions to who he pleases?'

The answer is 'yes he can'.

If four buyers contacted him and he sold his car to the English person, there is nothing that anyone can do about it.

Right back at you AOG I would go as far to say your are a very nasty person actually!

Be a person English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish, Indian, black, gay, etc etc etc.

They should all be allowed to sell their own possessions to anyone who they choose.

Do we not live in a free country?

[Zacs-Master]

Thanks. All clear now. Unfortunately.

[Islay]

You cannot actively discriminate against someone in that manner!
Hopefully someone will come along that you will take some notice of.!

A typical juvenile school ground response, cannot think of anything original, so comes back with the same.
"La, La, Le, La, thumb on nose, tongue sticking out".

It's a funny old world that you want to live in AOG.

[emmie]

no you can't, though i might add why have i seen adverts of which there are loads from flat letters saying Muslims only, to me that is as bad.

[hc4361]

You should report them, emmie

You have many times tried to push forward the notion that people back in the day were more considerate and generally nicer people.
Seems I can now dismiss that as ***.


And having read your last post I think you should do yourself a favour and go out for a walk or something.

No I just want to live in the world that I once lived in, life was less complicated and much more free, at least in the good old Great Britain.

Obviously that was for AOG.
