Happy St George's day!

I think that's fair enough - a lot of it I agree with, some of it I don't, but there's nothing there really worth getting upset about.

A lot of people know this here, but I'm actually an equality professional. My main aim has always been to get people to talk about equality, and what diversity means for us as communities and as a country as a whole.

The biggest barrier though is to get people talking, and I'm very conscious of the fact that almost everyone who's "anti" will wheel out a story about their friend being arrested for wearing an England shirt, or how the "coloured fella" at number 68 got given his house by the council when poor, hard-working white families have to wait for years - very few of which stand up to scrutiny.

The term 'political correctness' is my kryptonite though - hence my reacting as I did.

no worries dude, maybe we could continue if we meet some day and discuss said issues over a pint, you seem like a fair enough guy and thats what i love about the forum, anybody who gets upset and discusses things rationally about them are fine by me, sorry to use the kryptonite phrase dude but to me it really does exist.......hope your not offended dude :)
