63. working class people IMHO have less of an excuse for racism
because you tend to do the same crappy jobs, for the same crappy pay, with the same crappy conditions and are pretty much in exactly the same boat as immigrants.

Other posts as well as this one are trailing out the same old cliches, it's the <insert derogatory ethnic term here> coming over here and taking our jobs/housing/welfare.

One thing that is not being asked is why this is happening. If people started thinking about this maybe folk would stop blaming the immigrants and realise who is really behind it.
