Thread Name: BS: Are we anti-Irish?
Subject: RE: BS: Are we anti-Irish?
I could be wrong, Guest 08:33am but in this thread we seem to have convinced at least some of the people you may perceive as exteemists that the average Brit is not at all anti-Irish. It has also shown those of us who believed that all along that there was good reason for some people believing it was so. I agree that some will still continue to believe that and that is their perogative (sp?). We will also continue to see that there are some Brits that are anti-Irish and that the structure of 'Great Britain' by it's nature was to turn the English nation into a supremist state over our neighbours. I think it's very unfair to say that this thread illustrates your point when, to me at any rate, it seems to do the opposite. It has created a (mainly) civil and very productive dialogue between people with dis-similar points of view and brought those points of view closer together. If only all world politics could do the same:-)

Cheers
