German President calls for Loyalty pledge from Muslims

Yours is an over the top superficial comment, that possibly gets fed by sad individuals in the bar room after a few pints. I have traveled to all points of these Islands plus a number of visits to Ireland. I have heard a number or low level comments against member countries of the UK, but I have only ever heard, or over heard, two bitter comments against a member country and they were against England.

There is a major difference between throw away comments and hate. 

Whilst it is entirely wrong to say that all Brexit voters are racists, it is true to say that the Brexit vote would not have been won without them.

There is a page on Facebook called Rage Against the Gammon. The above rant is just the sort of thing that gets shared there for the rest of us to have a good laugh at.

You might not be a Nazi. But you are a typical Little Englander in some of your posts.

The title is a statement of fact and I've provided a factual link from DW. The point of the thread is that Germany is experiencing exactly the same problems with increasing anti-Semitism as we are in England - and like England their politicians have been reluctant to attribute this to the rapid increase in their muslim population. They've simply attacked anti-semitism. But the German president has addressed the Arab/Palestinian population directly and called for them to speak out against it.

Mishal Hussain's response to the German president is to say that anti-seimitism is nothing to do with muslims. This is also factual and she said it on "Today" last Friday. Yet the actual facts are that anti-semitism is heavily entrenched in muslim society as has become even more obvious with the anti-semitic chants of the pro-Hamas chants on the London marches. 

My point is that our politicians should also be calling for the muslim communities to stamp out their anti-semitism. 

As for RR's point, the OP conforms entirely to the requirements of the Mind Zone. It's a pity that some of the replies have been off-topic (like yours). 

I was listening to Ralph Schoellhammer the other day (who BTW is a total genius IMO) and he was arguing that the old definitions such as Left and Right now need redefinition. The Left are now are defined by their hatred of their own country and the Right by democracy and patriotism. I think this is a very accurate broad definition of the new political line. He went on to say that the British Left spend their time apologising for almost everything the UK has done - seeking "atonement". But he said, speaking as a German, he knows what it's like to be from a country that  NEEDS to seek atonement for its historical deeds - but the UK has NO reason to be apologising. Most of what we've done has been with the best of intentions and has helped the world. (The obvious exception being Blair's disastrous wars in the ME). It's time to stop apologising and start targeting the real culprits..

1. There was no argument to be won, your posted accusations were extreme and unprovable. And IMO were a shameful attack on many people who will have no way of challenging you on your comment.

2. & 3. Most of my time is spent on being objective about situations or in negating the lies, insinuated lies and general derogation that is used by some Righties on this Forum. 

4. Silliness that exists in your posts, that have absolutely nothing to do with me or my political stance, expanded to the point of insults which is so typical of the language used by so many Righties on this Forum.

YOU DO owe me an apology. 

However amongst the 'establishment' largely defined as those with some form of power there is a tendency to be very anti-British and offer support to those who see Britain as some form of malign influence upon the world in general. The evidence for this is in numerous things that are said and done and the effects of enacted policies upon 'the British'. There is little doubt that the British homeland has been allowed to be significantly changed as a matter of policy over the last 60 or so years all in the name of anti-racism, fairness, equality etc. Diversity did not raise its ugly head until later but is now a principle set in stone that historically is easily shown to be the bedrock of dissent and division. The Labour party once hailed as the very essence of working man Britain is now little more than a management club wishing to be in the manager's seat and generally making a fist of it when allowed. The tragedy of the UK is that the Tories are now exactly the same and the LibDems best left well alone.

I think the Tories are different yet only recently.

Brexit has changed things as the Establishment did not want it just look at what happened with the Theresa May debacle.
Now they have accepted it yet under Labour I think we would have been forced to vote again.

The Tories are in a fight not just with Labour yet with the US Democrats too though not officially stated and this is why the Supreme Court is seen to be the winner currently. Blair established the Supreme Court!
