However OnceStonedRose attitude towards the end of his Why a legal contract? thread really shows that he didn't deserve the right to ask the question.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

But the thing is the threads, and posters on here are not racist, at worse we can be called snobs we we lambast those who we feel are inferior to us, white, black, yellow, blue or green.
For every "Bob" thread (and by the way not all those from the sub-continent are Bobs, I've used the term for any off shore working who I feel is useless, just like I call out every native working who I think is useless, and on my last gig there were a few mentioned on these forums!) I can count the number of Chav scum, single mums etc threads, we discriminate everyone equally, people find offence when its not there.

Yet I'll bet a pound to a piece of dogsh!t that none of these closet racists, because that is what you are and make no mistake, would openly come out and reveal their vile opinions in public?
Very sad......
The original poster was bang on the money, it's racist, pathetic and puts me in mind of childish "keyboard warrior" troller types that the current age has created.

I personally avoid the conversation nowadays in public because unfettered immigration and using an LEDC's educated population to depress bottom rung wages in MEDCs is rather disgusting. However a number of people across all social classes raise it without prompting.
My fear if we don't do something about it there may be violence long term.Just as there was when much smaller immigration numbers 30 years ago.
All those that try and brush it under the carpet are fermenting unrest even if unknowingly.
It needs to be resolved and the issues addressed for everyone's safety.
I was in Slough Tesco's the other day, there were about 1% white faces. 15 years ago it was 10-20% non white. Obviously with the Polish etc influx such visual clues are less reliable buts its common to find you are the only white person with an english accent in the high street.
I'm not sure if the 'no deodorant' style is linked to religion? I find it seems common in the muslim population, is there a scripture that discounts bathing & deodorant? Maybe its a religion thing and they have no choice? But it does seem more common in Bobs. In my experience most people from MEDCs are quite particular about their hygiene.
I have worked with a native Englishman and a French (from their colonies) guy who both stank, bloody revolting.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
