yes well, imagine this, you work on a magazine in croydon, thats the stinky devils armpit of a place south of london, you imagine there would be lots of sarf landan toips and kentish fellows... but, the editor is scottish, the dep ed is scottish, the art editor is welsh, Im from yorkshire/derbyshire, and the two test riders are both from similarly northern (england) parts.

most of the rest of staff around here on the specialised MTB, cycling and 4x4 mags are not from around here...
so my question is.... where are all the southerners working?

working credit card scams behind spare parts supplying premium rate numbers perhaps...???

ah, school boy error... emap, the bastion of all that is motorsports has several titles, Bike ( the biggest selling monthly general motorbiking magazine) Ride ( taken a big dive in readership recently) Performance bikes ( also taken a huge dive in readership) MCN the weekly non specific motorbike newspaper...

then we have IPC media who own several motoring/outdoors titles.. SuperBike is one of several which includes 4x4, landrover world, motorboat and yachting, classic boat, motorcaravan... etc etc.

the big difference is, EMAP are up in Peterborough and IPC are in London and Croydon.

ive been trying to get onto 4x4 for a while now, but i got pipped at the post on the last occasion by internal politics.

swarfega... on chaps.... i bet that went down a charm.

we used to shoot people ( smokers who stand outside the back of the building) from the 6th floor in croydon with BB guns... that was funny until someone got a verbal. ( the publisher is a smoker)

schoolboy errors? should be part of my job description...

I'm working in my garage at the bottem of the garden!!

Sorry but I agree with Stormforce, you are not a rscist for realising that imergrants are coming to the UK to sponge off our Governmeant, the Taxes you and me pay every day, and that will always increase in the next bugget.

Our government is too scared to stand up and say enough is enough, because you get doo-gooders saying they are racist.

Ahhh racism.... The last defense of the work shy. "They came over here and stole my job!" Yes despite all the obvious benefits of being fluent in the native language, being white and from here, somehow at the interview he loses out. Was it a conspiracy by the white boss to put down his fellow white man or maybe he just didn't even go to the interview. Either way it's not fair, and it's all their fault. Right oh. And anyone who is anti-racist is just being PC? Really.

These are just facts so don't get upset about it -

We are a wealthy nation because of our recent and continued plundering of the less militarily strong countries. If a few of them come over here and plunder a middling quality hip job of the NHS, fair play.

Immigrants in a country are usually from the former colonies where we did the plundering/slave trading etc. So France has Algerians and Moroccans, Holland Indonesians, Belgium Congolese, Germany Turkish and the UK? Being the largest abuser of our military might the UK or should i say England in fact (I recently met a Scot who considers his country to be "under occupation" still) had the largest empire so there are descendants from all over.

As an example of how it worked - As indentured laborers (19th century buzz word for slaves) the British took many Indians from Gujarat to Uganda where they mostly died building our railways. The survivors descendants were kicked out in 1972 by Idi Amin and they were invited to the UK, perhaps more to do with a boom time lack in labour here than graciousness, but they were invited, as were many from Bangladesh, and helped the economy enormously.

People from poor countries recognise the good fortune of living somewhere that rewards hard work. Hindus for example have a caste system that determines your life from before you are born, if you are a low caste servant, so your children will be - no matter what you might try to do about it - and so will their children ad infinitum. However if they can make it to the UK, within one generation, despite having many disadvantages here they can get up enough cash (mostly by not spending their money on junk) to put their kids through college and now they are Dr Vaghri etc. In one generation! The enormity of that you might never be able to comprehend but believe me when i say they are unlikely to stop in to watch Trisha instead.

I don't know statistics for all south Asian immigrants but British Muslims who are mostly from south Asia make up 2.5% of the population but contribute 10% to it's wealth.

Last year 44,000 medical workers came to the UK to work. Sounds good? Well there is a shortage here so it's good for us. But in fact this is a very serious problem in countries like India which have a much greater need but are loosing staff to more attractive offers from the UK and USA. It's a brain drain or put another way - continued plundering of poor countries desperately needed resources. We shouldn't despise these immigrants, we should feel guilty for taking them.

And what really does it for me. What nationality was the scuz who broke into my car to make £20 on the stereo? I'll give you a clue, he was wearing a hoodie and buys his bling in Argos.
