"This is getting ridiculous now. Fab didn't say Bournemouth was full of pensioners. He posed it as a rhetorical question. Actually there is a large pensioner cohort in Bournemouth but the uni students bring the median down to average levels. Whilst Chris was wrong to Stereotype Ireland, I was simply asking if that statement was racist as that's what FFS took from it. " Context matters. Given the poster's frequent calls for a new British empire, belittling another nation in such terms is not just a casual sideswipe. It displays a revolting mindset. | |||

Your imperialistic view of Ireland is rather outdated. Since the independence Roi has turned from the poor agricultural state to a nation with substantial pharmaceutical, medical, service and computer based technology sectors. Yet still proudly producing high quality food produce as well. ![]() | |||
