    This is just another example of the people from medieval countries who are coming into Britain, legally or otherwise, with absolutely no knowledge or experience of life in a civilised country. That they could not even speak or understand English, does not surprise me at all.

    If the above makes me a racist in the opinion of some on this forum, I make no apologies for speaking the truth. If I was to go to live in another country and culture (which I have) I would make certain that I could communicate with the people of the country, and was aware of the cultural mores of the country.

    There are three groups of people you cannot, under any circumstances, criticise on this site: youngsters, the disabled, and foreigners. None of these groups can ever do anything wrong.

    Since when is quoting facts racist ?

    It is idiots like you from the overzealous PC brigade that cause people to be racist !


    Racism existed before PC. PC like other things is misused by various politicians, but to say PC causes people to be racist isn't true and also makes no sense i.e. Mr/Ms X racially abusing some random person on the street because Mr/Ms X read the post you are criticising here on MSE forum. That is not a legitimate reason to be racist.

    The British Empire went to many countries and exploited the people and their natural resources for it's own benefit which we are enjoying today and those countries are suffering today as a result. Millions of people from those countries had to join in the war on the side of Britain in WW2. Are any of these servicemen remembered on remembrance Sunday, no because as some of you have mentioned, they are a bunch of foreigners.

    Invent a time machine and prevent Britain from ever reaching Africa, South Asia etc.

    PC came into existence because of reasons such as Del Boy in Only Fools and Horses (a family comedy) being allowed to say, and I quote him, "P*k* Shop".

    PC exists because (and I quote the racists) "N word go home" and "P*k* go home" was spouted out decade after decade, during the popular pastime of P*k* bashing (to quote the racist's term) and the murder of Stephen Lawrence. Something which UKIP, in particular Mark Reckless, is trying to revive by saying "the go home call is no longer racist". Anyone who disagrees get's told they are on the PC brigade.

    We are also taking it on "faith" that they were not speaking English. The OP of this thread wasn't even the one who heard them speaking another language, it was her husband.

    Why adamantly accept it as fact and truth that they were non English speaking and that the nappy incident is an integral part of them not speaking English?

    People have posted that they have been to countries where people defecate on the street. People especially amongst the yobs and drunken louts defecate on the street here in England and have a good laugh about. Some people, not all, let their dogs defecate on the street and in parks where children play and don't clean up the mess, here in England.

    I want England to be clean and safe, that can only happen if we hold the individuals responsible for wrongdoing accountable, rather than blame entire groups which they have something like skin colour in common with. This causes the problem of exonerating that wrongdoing individual and assigning blame to a whole host of other innocent people who have nothing to do with him/her, in an attempt satisfy personal bigotries.

    The issue here is that Sainsbury's should have seen the incident on CCTV and dealt with it accordingly, with swift health and hygiene protocols being executed.

    Fine, you're all equally the least racist! :D
    Squirrel!
    If I tell you who I work for, I'm not allowed to help you. If I don't say, then I can help you with questions and fixing products. Regardless, there's still no secret EU law.
