Default are there any british left in this country???

put my bmw on a few gumtree websites last night for sale


within 20 mins phone was ringing, really couldnt understand him, since then i have had maybe 10 calls, not one british, god knows were there all from but oh my god

usual pakistani crowd form birmingham pestering me i just told them all sold as its not even worth going there. i dont so much mind the others atleast they are polite


its a joke, the last chap that called me 10 mins ago just said car sale !!! repeated it 3 times lol


i suppose they all come over and want to be motor traders lol

did have polish come out today slated the car to death offered 28 when it was up for 35 then offered 3 i refused only because of what they were like, spose should of took it really but im a man of principles lol

Wow this racist thing is a thin line to tread. I think he means that he does not like the way some nationalities conduct their business? ie think its acceptable to want something for nothing.

Depends where you're based really.

I know of only 2 blacks who live in this town and they're both fine. I know of a French guy, but that's it as far as foreigners go. I'm sure there must be more foreigners, but certainly not many, and you never notice them, so theyr must be ok. Certainly none of your Polish and other Eastern European types round here.

Travel to the middle of Wolverhampton, Birmingham etc and you can play a challenging game of Spot The White Man.

How the fuck is it racist?

I wouldnt consider myself a racist however i agree that all the immigrants, in particular the indians are massive time wasters, use underhand tactics in business, are rude, ignorant and liars on the most part.

Im racist to people who have too many cars in a house hold so that it means they park all over the fooking street usually infront of my house.
3 bed house 4-5 cars............. is there any need really is there????

I know you lot probably dont care about this but im a mad keen fisherman and the law states that course fish are to be caught and released, you need licences to fish and the carp is a very expensive and much sought after fish to catch. The polish have come over here, fish our lakes with no licence, do not pay for tickets to fish these lakes and then eat the fooking fish!! It is illegal. Its so wrong now that you arrive at a lake to find NO FISHING in a dozen languages. It pisses me off when they do not abide by our laws

i think its a shame that you cant bring up the subject without being called a racist. ive got friends from all different backgrounds but i do think its a shame that some areas have virtully no white people left, you walk through anywhere in north or east london any you will hardly see any.

Don't worry,your not racist merely xenophobic(fear of foreigners)!!it's not nearly as bad.on a serious note I'm afraid to say that Asians/pakistanis do try to rip you off in general and use underhand tactics but I'd say no worse than most,there really are some total wankers out there,British nationals included very much so.as for car selling,anything BMW,merc,jap or small auto with pas always attracts a large number of such minorities!!

I thought I'd be totally on my own when I clicked on this thread, but apparently not.
One thing which personally get me raging is that people move over here without the slightest intention of integrating, and expect us all to addapt to their needs and customs.
In one of the pubs which my employer owns there are a lot of 'ethnic minorities' working, with apparently a complete inability to speak english, or at least that's the case when you tell them to do some f+++ing work.
...and before anyone jumps on my back, I'm pretty good friends with a srilanka born lad who has to act as translator for me, to name one non-white/british friend of mine.

When I sold my MR2, 2 lads fresh into the country from Malaysia came to try and buy it for 500 quid

Argued with me for at least 30 seconds that it 'Not good. Broken. Need fix.'

WHen I asked which part of the car required repair (it was in amazing nick that car) they just said, 'not good. Broken. Need fix... 500 pundd'



Jog on pal.

Next bloke was Indian, was sound as a pound, had a test drive, told me he'd give me 100 quid less than my asking price purely becuase he's not paying the asking price, handed over the cash, had a cup of tea and off he went.

Difficult to judge people by their ethnic background. People are just people as far as I can tell. I've even met some white people who are cunts

Yes its a bigger concern when you are selling a phone for 500 punddd, especially when you drive a 500 mile round trip to drop off one

was all good tho the chap was minted

Born and raised here!

born and raised here makes you british!
i welcome all people and always treat as i find however if you want to live in britain learn to live and behave as british people do.
if i went to a middle eastern country drinking and reading porn in the street with a lightly dressed hooker on my arm i would probably be executed at dawn then should i say they are being racist it would be brought forward to early evening
we are too bloody soft over here

Have to say Gumtree is full of timewasters.

Constant iffy emails of indails called John Patel or Simon Singh on hotmail address, or the calls which are 99% of the time rude and arougant.

No matter what the car is up for they say 'what you guna take' to which you reply and they say 'nah mate, I can get one loads cheaper than that'

GO FUCKING BUY IT THEN KNOBHEAD.

Want everything for nothing and talk to you like shit if you don't let them have it for bugger all, i blank them now, speak to me in a manner you would expect to be spoken to and I will deal with you.

And I never even entertain buy a car of an indian, EVERY car i have ever gone to view has been either dodgy of fucked. They are to clever with their money and only seem to off load their shit - sweeping statement, maybe, but then I haven't had a case of a genuine car when i turn up yet.


Quick Reply: are there any british left in this country???
