Shocking story of Islamophobia/bullying/anti-refugee bone-headedness, not yet mentioned in these columns.

A reminder in case you need one:

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/nov/28/schoolboy-to-be-charged-over-huddersfield-attack-on-refugee-15

All this Syrian family want is to live their lives in peace, all their children want is to go to school, in peace.

Once upon a time refugees were welcomed here.

Dictionary compilers are known to get things wrong. I'd expect they'd be grateful if you pointed out someone doesn't cease being an economic migrant simply because they've moved to a country they aren't a citizen of. By that definition one can be an economic migrant but chase better economic conditions elsewhere yet mysteriously no longer be be an economic migrant, which is patently nonsense.
...be considered an...
AOG, do you have any comprehension of the fact that your sweeping statement ‘but if one dares to shine a bad light on ethnic minorities, (that is those who truly deserve it)’ is actually racist in that you’ve made an unfounded and false accusation about an entire sector of our country’s population?
You seem to be avoiding my question as to whether you’d be happy living in Iraq or Syria, OG.

/// As Danny said. Your 600 odd posts on the subject, from which you’ve learned nothing are more than enough evidence. ///

Can't remember Danny saying any of that.

But to address what you have said, I have learnt plenty, which encourages me to learn even more, unlike the likes of you who is completely in the dark of what is taking place in this country.

Or could be conveniently choosing to ignore it because it doesn't fit their agenda.
AOG //Or could be conveniently choosing to ignore it because it doesn't fit their agenda.//
You are the one with an agenda.
AOG I, unlike you, have no agenda. Does my 14:31 post mean anything to you?
And STOP using ‘the likes of you’. It’s meaningless and childish.

Please provide proof of my unfounded and false accusations.
It was in the quote from your post. Which you’ve conveniently left out.

Now you know how I feel about your unfounded accusations of racism and xenophobia.

Unfounded???
They’re not unfounded you wrote ‘but if one dares to shine a bad light on ethnic minorities, (that is those who truly deserve it)’

Do you appreciate that you’ve insulted the entire sector of our population who are ethnic minorities with that comment? The nurse, the doctors, the teachers, the council officers, the scientists who are all contributing to Britain’s economy? Do you understand what you did with that statement?

Did you not read what I put in brackets? (that is those who truly deserve it)

Or do you just choose to read what you think is there?

Do you not think that the Asian Grooming gangs and the black on black killings deserve criticism?

A yes or no will suffice.
Your post reads as though you think ethnic minorities are the ones who truly deserve it. If that’s not what you meant, which elements of our ethnic mnirities did you mean? You’re wriggling and back-pedalling again.
You have no comprehension that a percentage of the make up of the people you’re labelling ‘ethnic minorities’ are as British as you or I, do you?
The nurse, the doctors, the teachers, the council officers, the scientists who are all contributing to Britain’s economy?

All very deserved I am sure.

I am thinking more of those with placards saying, death to the uk, sharia law for all. Check Luton rally on youtube.
Well at least you’ve made the distinction, SK.
^ I can see someone 'wriggling and back-pedalling' and it isn't AOG.
Then I suggest you stop posting.

The distinction appears to be made quite well.
