I agree with the rest of the post however.

There, we will have to agree to disagree.
There you go, now tarring me with the same brush as a terrorist! Fred West was a white bloke too, does that mean you are like him?

I would be the first to admit there are a lot of issues and problems that need to be addressed forthwith. Certainly there are a lot of foreigners who need to integrate more effectively and toe the line so to speak. Similarly there are a lot of the indiginous nationals who need a kick up the backside to make a more valid contribution to society. However the biggest portion of blame must lie with the government. Weak, ineffective and inefficient policies and bylaws. Failure to listen to the electorate. Failure to act on issues of very pressing natures. Gatty does speak for a lot of the population, whilst I will forego the fact he has labelled me a 'f*cking P aki' I think he is entitled to share his opinion with other Scoobynetters.

The hordes of people on here who scoff at your patently ridiculous views do so of their own volition.

Gatty, I gave you ample chance last night to put your money where your mouth is and post a poll where you could prove that thousands of people share your view. You chose not to, presumably because you know full well that outside your close-knit circle of like-minded pals and building site numpties, the vast majority of people DON'T think the same as you.
The mods deleted my poll because they hate to see an underdog get a kicking.
