Fair play to Bikey, he's from the same village in Cameroon as my wife, you know!! I think it may have given a stronger anti-racism message if the ambassodor had been a white Englishman.

Hmmm, I'm pretty sure that racism isn't all one way traffic though

That's true. In my experience, however, it's a lot easier being white in a European country than it is being black. On the other hand, white people living in Cameroon experience no racism.

I'd put all my possessions on betting that over 99% of racism in football in this country is instigated by white people.

I think quite a few Asian people are racist against black British people as well.

Which would make racism instigated by white people in this country at about 97 % :wink:

If you are going to call him an idiot, at least have the decency to quote his post accurately.

Often second generation immigrants don't like first generation immigrants as they have established themselves and feel threatened by the newcomers.

Don't ask me why second generation asian and jamaican immigrants dislike each other though (if they do that is).

96 percent of the british population is white
even if all of the black and asian people here were as racist as hell-it could only be 4% max

...provided that all of the other 96 percent are, you know, racist.

If a higher percentage of black and asian people are racist than whites the % of racist incidents by whites could be less than 96 %.

I think that's my last contribution on this topic which has no answers. Bit too AE for me.
