" Isreal have done exactly the same.. yet weirdly there is no condemnation of them. If france had an outbreak, you can just imagine the reaction on here,if we kept our borders open.

"so are you? English Have you a dislike of french and germans then? None what so ever.Well you just said the British have a particular dislike of them so you must have if you are English. You realise I didnt say..every single english person hates the german and French. There is a strain of anti European..specifically french and german feeling here..there has been for years.You can see it in the media (hence the link I posted)and it trickles down to its readership(look at the behaviour of England fans when they play in Europe? Jesus you can't equate the sentiment of a Nation by using its football fans. 13 million tourists from the UK go to France each year. Fans are a tiny percentage of that. So you dont think there is any anti German/French feeling in this country? What about that link I posted?" Yes - there definitely is. A good friend of mine hates the French. He says most of his friends where he used to live feel the same way. He's German, by the way. | |||
