DUP still wavering

[ellal]

Are Scottish, Welsh and Irish races nowdays then?

Only a racist would need to ask that

 

[Mottie]

And only an argumentative **** would fail to answer.

If it happens, I wonder if there will be a flood of UK businesses moving to Ireland to be within the single market.

It could be just N.Ireland, businesses will still be part of the UK customs union but they will also be able to trade freely with EU.

And only an argumentative **** would fail to answer.

Ah, that must be what you repeat to yourself as you gaze lovingly into your mirror

 

[ellal]

I wonder how much the DUP values those '30 pieces of silver' to be worth this time?

Of course Notchy...you are far too principled to vote Monster Ravin Loony for a few million.

Anything can happen of course...

After all, 17.4m deluded people were happy to hand over their hard earned readies for a fantasy land that doesn't exist

Legally they are, if you go by the Equality Act at least.

Race can mean your colour, or your nationality (including your citizenship). It can also mean your ethnic or national origins, which may not be the same as your current nationality. For example, you may have Chinese national origins and be living in Britain with a British passport. Race also covers ethnic and racial groups. This means a group of people who all share the same protected characteristic of ethnicity or race.

I wonder if mottie might just believe that 'other races' only exist if they have shall we say different 'skin pigmentation'?

And that mottie doesn't understand that race refers to nationality as well as these 'skin pigmentations' ?

Not national, it can't.

which may not be the same as your current nationality. For example, you may have Chinese national origins and be living in Britain with a British passport.

Therefore nationality has nothing to do with race.

Race also covers ethnic and racial groups. This means a group of people who all share the same protected characteristic of ethnicity or race.

Obviously.

He would be right, then.

No it doesn't.

Hmm. I thought when using descriptors for Scottish, Irish and Welsh (as well as English) was describing someone’s nationality, not their race. I mean, you could have a person born in England from Asian, African or Caribbean parents or a mixture of any two of them so his Nationality would be English but not his race so how does describing someone's nationality make me a racist?

So, here's another question for Ellie to duck/swerve/ignore/give a non-answer or answer by asking another question: Ellie, please give us your definition of race as you understand it preferably with a link to where you got it from. Thanks.

Well guess what the nasty little racist said when offered the chance to answer a couple of very simple questions about brexit...

I think I might just as well STFU

You are so right...

And it's long overdue!

 

[ellal]

Obviously.

By law The Irish, Welsh, Scots are protected races...

Anyone who wishes to use the words J*ck, T*ff and P*ddy in a derogatory manner ought to know this...

But I guess racists of a feather tend to hang together
