I now know who to blame for why New Englanders spell Wooster 'Worcester'...

I'm of course joking, since Wooster is a phonetic spelling of the two towns...

I'm finding some of the panicked reactions in this thread quite amusing to read. Could it be this is the first time a slice of the young, University-educated GAFers in decent white collar jobs are seeing what the lower class really thinks?

It's easy to call people racist or xenophobic, but your opinion might change if you lived in an area that over the past couple of decades has gone from just mixed working class to seeing women every day in the full veil and hearing any language but English spoken in your local supermarket, plus jobs decimated and local community areas reduced to a string of betting shops. I think these people have real concerns, confusion and fears that aren't being addressed - they're making connections between what's happening on the news and to the economy and what they see in their daily lives. It's shit-heads like Farage, the Daily Mail etc who swoop in and exploit those concerns for their own agendas.

Do you blame the "plebs" for voting leave, or do you blame the government for willfully neglecting the people at the ever-growing bottom of society and the tabloid rags for taking advantage of their insecurities.

How many Muslims come from the EU?

Like seriously I'm sick of my religious belief being vilified first in the Mayoral election and now in the referendum.

I'm not going to empathise with people who think I'm a stain on society, my level of compassion doesn't stretch that far. A racist is a racist.

Yea so much this.
I mean why is it even an issue that someone speaks a non english language among themselves? Do they really expect a Persian family to not speak in Farsi among themselves? I mean isn't that's what beautiful and modern about a society that you have people from various cultures, speaking various languages ?

Obviously the problem is that then you can't tap it. Which means that for all means and purposes that Persian family has perfect encryption. This is a direct danger to every sovereign state's cybersecurity. I mean, they can discuss their crushes and I can't hear about it?

I wish they would not interview any of the public, more times than not it makes me genuinely sad at how little they seem to understand what is going on.

Sun readers, or is that also a insult to the working class?

Only if the world economy is more unstable than it currently looks.

Voting to leave is stupid, but I think the damage can be mitigated.

World markets will pull back, but probably won't crash.
 
There are many arguments against Page 3 but the real reason that such right wing editorial has a hold on this country is basically: tits.

There should be a study.
