    So if I call my mate from Glasgow a "Sweaty Sock" aka "Jock" does that count as being a racist? If I call the lad that I work with from Middlesborough a "Smoggie tw*t", like I do most days, does that count as racism as they are both from different geographical cultures? Or when I am on MSN to my pal's in India and we take the pi** out of each other and call them "Paki" does that mean I am a racist? No because it is just banter, people are just people at the end of the day. ;)

    No we wouldn't be doomed, we would have the security of been able to provide essentials for ourselves no matter how much s**t hits the fan. Each Country would still have an export and import trade for those things they can not supply themselves as its something new added to their culture ie bananas.

    I don't find any posts in this thread racist, and it's extremely sensative people like yourself that have made the UK go PC mad. In turn this has lead to people taking on a stronger resentment to immigrants because you're likely to be called a racisit if you say boo to someone that has a differant skin colour! You should get a grip.

    Look people, I am not a racist and to be called one hurts, people are just people but when it comes to business, Money and Trade I strongly believe that each country should be self sufficient in some way and certain issues like banking, money etc should stay within the realm of our country, when I speak to an "Asian" call centre person, I cannot chat about the weather or have a bit banter about the football etc, when I get some scouse bird on the line from Alliance and Leicester normally I have a bit carry on with her on the phone, wind them up about Liverpool being as !!!! as Newcastle United etc, you can't have that same social "ice breaking" banter over the pond because of the culture difference, please understand Ged that I am not racist and I ask you to take back that accusation please.
