why are British people soo racist?

Answer 1

British people are so Racist because its in there nature to be Racist, there fore fathers colonized the world with the pretence of bringing Religion to the people, whilst they may have been genuine ones amongst the early preachers, majority of them were state sponsored.
the Brits cant stand others, Once upon a time in England, it used to be no irish , blacks or dogs, ...again they cant help themselves, now its even worse,the people are so easily decieved by the media and i can not but wonder how a great nation like Britain could be filled with ignorant people who sit in the pub day and night, who have lost all sense of moral value, who go abroad expecting everyone to speak english be so great, ........Ah ..yes......slavery and colonialism of course.

Answer 2

The British on the whole are not racist. The conglomerate that is Britain now contains so many different people from so many different places that is in fact quite hard to be a racist in Britain now - especially if you live in a major city - as it would mean you'd have limited supply of places to draw friends from.

You may find people getting annoyed in there daily lives if they are trying to achieve a goal and are having to try and do this with someone who can't speak English yet works in an English speaking country - but this isn't racism as opposed to frustration at the issue of poor communication. This would be the same anywhere else in the world if an English speaker were to be working somewhere that did not speak English.

The main kind of prejudice surviving in Britain now is not that of racism but that towards religious identity. This has been an issue in Ireland since time began it would seem but now with the terrorist activities of Islamic Extremists they are encouraging people to hate them more and more everyday, and not only for attacking non-Muslims... but for attacking other Muslims to on a daily basis.

It's the erratic and unpredictable nature of the psychotic that the British (like most of the rest of the world) don't like and this is magnified when those in your own country that can speak English choose not to in public, making it appear as if they have something to hide.

Answer 3

Racist us, I've seen more racism between coloured groups than I've seen between white and coloured. However as British now covers coloured groups born in this country I would presume that some of these problems could now become British in the broadest sense. However some of the attitudes are gleaned from media reports from overseas and to foreign governments, in particular Robert Mugabe's in Zimbabwe which is not a good advertisement for Africans and the Asian fundamentalist governments which do not have a legal system like ours. People of these persuasions tend therefore to be suspect.

Answer 4

That is a racist comment. It is also badly spelled and fails to begin with a capital letter; so it also demonstrates the intellectual capacity (or lack thereof) of the person asking it.

In fact, that is a question that offends on so many levels, it is almost funny.

Considering that British people consist of the English, Welsh, Scots and Northern Irish and includes people of numerous ethnicities, you might just have well asked; "Why are people so racist?"

I suspect you might be able to answer that for yourself, drawing from your own views, experiences and prejudices.

British people come in a range of colours. was there a paticular colour that you were refering to?

Answer 9

Are we? Is that why I was bullied by Pakistani's when I was a child for being the only white girl in my class?

Answer 10

We expect other races to assimilate into our society, much as they would expect us to if we lived in their country. We are actually very easy going, but some are over the top.

Remember 'When in Rome........?

Good advice.
