I haven't had enough time to read all this thread yet and perhaps I should and probably will later. I just think that to go down the road of segregation is totally wrong. As someone posted earlier it's like being in South Africa in the 60s or the deep south of America around the same time. Jeez! For the record I went to an all boys comprehensive in SW2. A whole melting pot of different cultures at that time in the early 70s, but mostly West Indian, English, (about half an half actually) then Asian, Irish, a few Greeks and Turks and a couple Maltese and Italian. It was a shithole with 2,000 kids in there that all wanted to kill each other. I walked out at 15 and told them to stick it up their arse and never went back. Maybe I'm still a little scarred by it but I had quite a lot of fun there but mostly when I was bunking off with my mates. Err...oops, sorry, maybe I'll come back and be more constructive when I've read through the thread properly.
