Maybe it is because passive racism is endemic to British society

Is it just me or does anyone else find this statement ironic at best and ludicrous at worst?

There seems to be something decidedly wrong with complaining that a whole nation are endemicaly racist. Maybe it is OK. After all, most Blacks are gangsters, most Jews are money lenders and most Irish are thick. They all make sense if we are to believe that most British are racist don't they?
