you're wrong - I never wrote it was an act of racism. And if you don't understand - racism is a prejudice based on race/skin colour. I clearly stated that i thought he did it because he considered me being neo-nazi, not because I am white. It has nothing to do with racism.

Me? No, don't disturb me.... I'm looking for the black neo-nazis.


I don't think it's possible to invoke such a powerful symbol without all the paperwork that comes with it. Finger wagging hoity toity claims that it wasn't what you meant are a bit pointless.

Thanks so much for attempting to define racism - if the person hadn't been black but white, you wouldn't have assumed he thought you were a 'neo-nazi', you would have thought he was simply being a dickhead - after all, there's a lot of white trash in East Dulwich. Therefore your judgement was an act of racism - most people are prejudice in some way and you are clearly one of them.


As a final thought, have you ever seen a black neo-nazi? Or an Indian one? Therefore the fact that you are white and he was black also means you made a racist judgement. Unless of course, you have a swastika tattooed on your forehead and were goose stepping down the road in full paramilitary dress...

    • Unless you accept the overwhelming evidence that 90% of motorists think the rules of the road don’t apply to them then all I really hear from you is “Waa Waa people I hate are doing something I do” 
    • Has anyone tried to take a van to Southwark's recycling centre recently? It seems every year they try to make it more difficult. You now need to give 3 days notice, are limited to 4 trips per year and the latest wheeze is limiting van users to a one hour slot in the morning, timed to coincide with rush hour and the school run: https://www.southwark.gov.uk/bins-and-recycling/recycling/recycling-centres/reuse-and-recycling-centre/?chapter=2 Van access is restricted to 8.30am and 9.30am on the date you have selected when booking. You must complete all unloading and leave the site during this time. This is due to vans generally taking much longer to unload and can obstruct or cause hazards to other site users because of their larger size. This is bizarre as a different page says that The busiest times are on Saturdays, Sundays and at the start and end of each day. You may have to queue if you visit during these times. There's usually no queue between 10am to 3pm on weekdays. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/bins-and-recycling/recycling/recycling-centres/reuse-and-recycling-centre How can they claim to be worried about hazards to other users then force van users to visit at the busiest times? Living in a carfree household and relying occasionally on Zipcars, a majority of which seem to be (Zip)vans in the ED area now, these changes seem as unnecessary as they are annoying. But I only visit the centre once or twice a year, maybe others have different experiences and views?
    • Who are the new managers, and what changes have they made? I haven't been in there for years!
