Not yet ! Surprised by it 😁 I'm not surprised at all, you seem to conduct yourself as well as anyone else to me. You must be part of the untouchables too, shall we have some t-shirts made? Yes, what shall we have on the front and back of them ?

Yes, what shall we have on the front and back of them ? 'I love Gammons' and 'I love wokies'? Design is far from being one of my strong points in all honesty

Of course I’ve informed the bill. What would you do? Take them fine dining and let them have the run of your home I’d imagine. The police do nothing as I’m sure you can imagine, I’ve done it twice to no avail so now I just moan on here about it. Not only that, where I live, 10 years ago was a really nice neighbourhood where folk would say hello to each other and you could go out for a pleasant stroll. All I see now is hooded Eastern European thugs waiting for cars to turn up for their latest “exchange”. Thieving from local businesses is also rife. I know you don’t want to hear it because your life is so perfect but myself and many others in Stoke (an area you do not live in and rarely visit) are sick and tired of hearing about thieving, violent assaults, sexual assault and drug dealing by Eastern European men. That is a cast iron fact and I don’t need statistics to back it up. I live that life every day and yet still keep a modicum of a sense of humour unlike you wokies who seem to see the good in the bad and the bad in the good I am afraid I disagree. Assertions and impressions without evidence can be very misleading - I would say dangerous even. I accept that facts and stats can be manipulated, but without evidence we are lost. This is not a comment on what you have seen at the N Staffs hotel, it is a slightly wider point. I cannot comment on the specifics because I don't know whether there is evidence to suggest these people are in fact engaging in criminal activity, whether there is an increase in local crime, whether such an increase is statistically significant, over what period that increase has taken place, what sort of crime we are talking about, and so on. For all I know, there may be such evidence - but I haven't seen it. The reason I mention all of this is that my dad was what many would call an economic migrant from an Eastern European country. He came to the UK completely alone and with pretty much zero English. He encountered kindness, warmth and compassion from many people. But also prejudice, hostility and contempt from others, because he looked (and in particular sounded) different. Not that it's particularly relevant, but he worked his entire life for the NHS. And even less relevant he became a massive Stoke fan and ST holder for 25 or 30 years before the move from the Vic. Btw I suspect (but I don't know) you would probably describe me as "woke" - which I take to be a compliment, as in my head it suggests compassion, humanity and tolerance. Excellent post mate. The badger knows he's lying with his far right rhetoric but cant help himself.

because they tell me. Though there does seem to be some inconsistency. The people who've been banned tell you? Presumably on their return to the mb? You’ve got it

Are you going to take in a Stoke game while you're in the area? I can't see Gary Lynnacre popping up to Stoke just to mooch round a Pride event (I can imagine him looking down on SOT), if he was so inclined he'd probably attend one closer to home in London?

I wouldn’t describe you as woke at all mate. Never had you down as a sanctimonious rabble rouser and I like your personal story. On the other points we’ll just have to agree to disagree.

You just need to be human for these. Being 'woke' in your context is being normal. With the exception of Huddy, who's clearly far from normal. Good on your dad for sticking it out. My mums German and had to put up with the usual stereotypes. She obviously did well in the end though.

I was told last night by one of the leaders of the sanctimonious crusader wolfpack that I hadn’t a clue what woke meant. I certainly do and he and his lefty pals haven’t got a clue. It’s nothing to do with “compassion” it’s everything to do with trying to outdo each others virtue signalling. Like Larry Gineker

Coincides with a Vale home game so think I'll go there instead. Its Gary Barlow I mean and it's woke pride not lgbt pride.
