    Sheesh. Sense of humour failure or what? Lighten up. It wasn't an entirely serious suggestion, more a variant on hyperbole. (But please don't joke about taking my skis away )

    No. It's a hack rag. Daily Mail - read by the wives of those who run the country.

    Wrt to it being racist, of course it isn't. However, it is a tactic of racists to stir up race issues.

    HTH.
    What was racist and bigoted about his post in this thread? Just interested how you see it.

    Just posting a link to an article on the Daily Mail website does not contribute a great deal to the forum - at least say something about it rather than just saying "here is an article".

    Yes, always worth bearing in mind that this was posted by mrdonuts. To say he is a bit slow is putting it mildly. Intellectually speaking, he gets lapped by tortoises. I mean it has been getting discussed for hours already FFS!

    That would be a shame:

    The Jobsite.co.uk advert was on behalf of a computer company based in Britain and India.

    It stated: 'Minimum six years of experience in IT . . . The person should be a UK citizen with security clearance.'
    That was probably the most on-topic post on this site for weeks. To be banned for that would be stupid.

    And discriminatory.

    And censorship.

    So, calm down NAT.
