I mean ffs, where are we going with all of this or am I just being completely ignorant? As a nipper I once went to a kiddies birthday party as an Indian (sorry, Native American) complete with tomahawk and mum made headdress so does that make me some kind of bad guy? I really do wonder where this country is going, becoming a complete nanny state to the woke brigade | | | | |

Alex Hales on 20:13 - Nov 23 with 1204 views | 1885_SFC | My mum, in her 30's back in the 1970's, loved the Benny Hill Show - as did many of her friends, my mates's mums, etc etc. It was a laugh... just like the old saucy seaside postcards from the 60's/70's. Nothing more - nothing less. I'm surprised (but chuffed to bits) that they still show all the 'Carry On' films on telly - what with all the bottom slapping, innuendos, scantily-clad women, etc. that went on. Classic British humour at its best! | |

Alex Hales on 21:32 - Nov 23 with 1160 views | SaintNick | You dont eradicate homophobia and racism by shouting it down and pretending it doesn't exist, you do so by challenging it when it is preached and proving that all of the words are wrong, When people are "cancelled" and banned from speaking no one gets to hear whether they are right or wrong, so they will always be there and enable to come back and flourish, challenge those views properly and most people will see through them as bigots. By shouting people down they will always find those that will wrongly support them as they don't understand what they are about. The current climate has created more division than it has eradicated, the world is a more hate filled place than ever before in the last 40-50 years | |

Cancel culture actually expands and perpetuates extremism, extremists obviously know this, liberals are taken for a ride by it. | |

It must be lovely to live in their middle class suburbs telling the poor lot what they have to accept and what they don't, immigration would slow to a trickle if economic migrants had to live in Brighton, Guildford and Bristol..............Strange they always put them in the poorest most deprived areas and wonder why the UKIP, right wing vote is up there, who'd have thought..................

Alex Hales on 13:56 - Dec 4 with 729 views | Heisenberg | And your point is ? Your claim that Bristol doesn’t have its share of economic migrants and those seeking aslylum is total nonsense. | |
| |
Alex Hales on 14:24 - Dec 4 with 724 views | barry_sanchez | Its share? Ha Ha are they in the posh parts? Bristol is a virtue signalling City at its finest. Bristol's foreign born population is tiny, look up north, massive difference, can't even compare to be honest, the comparison is laughable. | |

Alex Hales on 14:52 - Dec 4 with 717 views | Heisenberg | Yes it doesn’t compare to the northern cities in terms of having a huge Asian population but it’s still sizeable. It has one of the oldest Polish communities going back to the war and more recently was at the forefront in taking in people from Somalia. It also has a long history with people from the Caribbean settling in the city. Suggest you check out the Bristol bus strike and boycotts in the early 60s. Your original claim that the city hasn’t had economic migrants is nonsense. It’s a wide diverse city well worth visiting if you opened your mind a little. | |
