I have just been in KFC after a nightout,had a really good time.Some guy tried to push in so i told him that there was a que,so he starts to ramble on in his language,couldnt understand a word he was saying lol.The staff backed me up and so did the customers in the que.But this guy and his friend started going on ...still..... that they were waiting.And i said so am i so just wait your turn.Im sorry,im not a racist but is there anyone else who feels this?That we are being walked all over by this multicultural society who keep themselves to themselves and couldnt give a flying f***k about anyone else.They already have a crap country and want to bring it over here.Slate me if you want but u know its the truth.I have polish banging into me where i live,and they think it is you fault.?????????????????????

Good on you mate.
The problem with most of us is we just mutter under our breath and do nothing. It's about time they were given lessons in British culture and manners before they let them set foot in the country.

The same thing happened in the KFC. I was standing in the queu and this malaysian guy didnt queue up and came straight to the front. I had been at the door when the queue started and it was my turn next so I told him politely there is a queue and he pointed at the many cashiers as if we don't have to stand in one queue and can join any till as we like. It wasn't until the staff called me next to be served that he got the idea and queued up. I think its rude when you tell people people are waiting and they don't queue rather than ignore the queue in the first place. I used to work in the Airport and most people who come through are British and Europe and and some Asians alot of Japs. The worst people that don't queue are Italian (Students.) Japanese queue up and then want to get rid of their change and keep coming straight to the front but we all excuse this because they are really polite people in general.
One time Italian students were talking and talking and they ignored the queue which was going right out of the door and one older British guy leaned forward into the face of a tall Italian student and said 'we queue in this country and if you dont I am going to knock your block of son.' The poor guy didnt have a clue!

You find pushing and shoving and general rude attitude in many countries overseas. Kind of reminds me of a bunch of puppies crowding around a bowl of food - - each one wants to get as much as he can without regard to his litter mates.

When I was overseas I tried to respect the people of that country and would always give them the right of way. When I got back here I was amazed at how many foreigners would continue their rude behavior of shoving, pushing, cutting in line and other behavior that we find offensive. I have on more than one occasion said something to those people and explained that that behavior is not acceptable in this country. Sadly, many Americans are now just as rude (and I don't mean just immigrants).

What is the answer? I wish I knew.

You are going to find rude people in every culture, sad but true. I was brought up to always treat others with respect, to wait my turn to speak or in a check out line and to be polite to strangers. If I were to visit another country I'd be the nicest tourist you ever met because it's inbred into me to be nice. (Not that I don't have a temper when pushed too far, but only in very extreme situations.)

You're right they're mostly ignorant people and the poles are like an epedemic in Glasgow these people should be home sorting out their own countries instead of over here under pricing the British worker while destroying ours now.

Theres plenty of arseholes in every country.

If that guy had been English, you wouldnt have thought 'English people are taking the piss'.

You see what you want to see. If someone from another culture acts like an arsehole, it just confirms any existing prejudices you have.

People are different ,if they weren't foreigners they will be different from you with something else. I would guess you don't like other category of people, too?Just accept the differences and focus on what makes you happy.

Be happy!
