Are you arguing that top clubs sign top players players based upon skin colour rather than ability, age, injury record, price etc? ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M

This is how Tarquin works. When someone pulls him up for talking shite, he deflects because he knows he can't give an answer.
When I post facts, he comes back with abuse telling me I'm wrong. When asked why these facts are wrong, he switches to abusing waffle mode to divert attention, as he knows he can't give a valid response.
Rinse and repeat. He does this all the time. He's never once backed up his side of the argument, which is quite handy really, because generally he's wrong. |
Facts !! you ??!!
Look Terry, I haven't carried out any such thing, I have not diverted attention, but, I would expect you to understand. Anyhow, aren't you able to get 1 of your many many customers in freight forwarding to help smuggle TR out. So, perhaps he can become an illegal immigrant somewhere, oh, no, wait, he's already done that once !!
However, to make life simpler for you ..
Yes there is almost an abundance of illegal immigrants working in various low paid industries, including, but not limited to, farm workers, car wash facilities, hospitality industry. (Speaking of which can you provide any factual evidence that is really is widespread).
There will also be a disproportionate number of legal immigrants working in low paid and low skilled industries.
As for the footballers whinge, really, get a grip, football clubs buy footballer's contracts to get the best return on their investment, which generally implies, they will pay for the best skillset and all round playing ability, what that has to do with race etc, is entirely beyond me, and, i imagine beyond the clubs owners. If you wanted to compete in horse racing, you wouldn't buy a 3 legged horse, likewise, when a football club has the opportunity to buy a highly skilled player for a position they are looking to fill, they will buy the best they can, no matter what ethnic or religious background they come from. However, you made the claim, about said disproportionality, where is your evidence, other than Huddersfield got relegated, still, on the bright side, looks like there's a Luton Town season ticket going spare ____________________ Beware what photos you upload, or link to on here, especially if you have family members on them |

Not at all. I'm arguing the exact opposite.
I used it as an example of how BME's are not always disadvantaged in the employment field as you claimed.
You claimed the majority of BME's only work in low paid industries like fast food and minicabs. I explained that those industries are rife with illegal immigrant workers, so that may be more the reason than being disadvantaged due purely to ethnicity.
I also then went on to highlight Khan and Abbot who got to where they are based purely on ethnicity and then on to millionaire BME footballers who not only make up a higher representation than society as a whole, but also get there on merit and face no disadvantage at all because of skin colour.
As they say, it;s not quite as black and white as you make it out.

Violence against women has no place in our city, and horrific murders in the home like this show the scale of the problem we face.
My heart goes out to this innocent child, and to the mother they have so tragically lost. @MetPoliceUK are investigating - please help if you can.

Not much in the way of support for Mr. Khan in the comments. |

I see Muslicultural Londonistan is now embracing South African black culture. I wonder if Khan will allow flame throwers attached to the underneath of cars, or could it be bad for global warming?
It was only a matter of time before the Gimmedats upped their game from jacking mopeds and motorcycles. Two knifed up Gimmedats on mopeds try to car jack a couple of Arsenal players in a Merc G-Wagon.
"Leroy, where did you get dat car?"
"I found it mum"

Playing the mpd72 Buzzword Bingo game is amusing but he's got a point here. Soft justice or an under-performing police force inevitably means the criminals see no downside and so escalate their activities. These young thugs must now have the contacts and the means to dispose of high-value stolen cars for profit. A lifetime of crime or imprisonment awaits largely because no one was there to put them on the straight and narrow..., Mum included!
Boris to the rescue?

I think that's good.
Let them ride on the road if their performance is the same or less than road-legal e-bikes, but not on the path. I've nearly been whacked into by a twattish bloke on an electric skateboard, and by a bloke on an electric scooter rippping past on the pavement, who I nearly took measures against, thinking he was a thief. Ride 'em on the road/cycle path, fine but not on the pavement. |
