There has been debate over the "White Flight" from public schools in Australia in the papers the last couple of days. Then someone wrote this....

Is it realy that bad in England??? If so, I hope the politicians get off the backsides here in Australia and do something before it's too late!:huh::yep::yep:

Both the ammount of segrigation and the ammount of racial tension in England is
very high. you only get racial tension where there is a degree of racism and there
is plenty of that about too, on both sides.

The support of religious schools that divide society on both sides means that a change
in attitudes is going to be slow. Boo to that etc.

I feel the greatest problem is political correctness which has gone to far and has cause trouble and high tension, a good example is the classic old gem the Hot Cross Buns. The PC lobby stated they were offensive to Muslims, when the British Muslim Council of Great Britain replied we are not offended by by hot cross buns, yet the PC thugs kicked up issues about Xmas which was rubbish as well.

I would say 75% of this is bought about a small minority rocking the boat and making waves. The rest is just plain racism white against black and black against black, so on. I see no hope for this country as each year passes by things will continual to go down the pan. Are politicians are corrupt and live in day dream world which dose not help us at all.
