To think my friend was racist, rude or both?

Fox hunting is a deal breaker for you but racism isn’t? Interesting.

To be honest with you she was probably just being reassuring, I’ve seen lots of misinformed people who are 2nd generation or that are here legally and have gone through all the processes and contribute to the country, work and pay their taxes who have integrated and truly class this as their own country thinking that Reform is going to kick them out of the country which is madness.

I’m with her, I’m voting Reform at the next election and I don’t care what anyone thinks of me anymore - I’m not a racist but I want my country back.

Absolutely broke my heart to see that veteran on the tv the other day saying that all the sacrifice wasn’t worth it and this country isn’t the country he and many others fought and died for.

We need some one to get these illegals out of our country it’s taking the piss now, the derives are being stretched enough and they are being given priority. I’m sick of being treated like a second class citizen in my own country.

me and my children were made homeless due to a relationship breakdown and we have been in unsuitable temporary housing waiting for our forever home for nearly 3 years and when we were in a crackden of a hotel for 6 weeks we didn’t get 3 meals a day, we didn’t even have cooking facilities so if that doesn’t anger you then you are in wrong country.

Do any other countries in the world have an ILR status ?

If you look it up it allows for a host of advantages if you have it. Just wondering if other countries have a similar scheme?

Oh look, a racist troll.

They are only considering extending the time it takes to apply. The change would allow those who contribute more to the country to apply early which encourages those wanting to live here permanently.

Rubbish. Farage has pledged to abolish ILR. Which is legal immigration.

Yeah she's an idiot and a massive racist and anti-Semite. You're friends with this individual because...?

Reform are not against immigration. They want illegal immigrants deported and to stop more coming in. If you come to the country the correct way and contribute to society once here then there’s nothing to worry about. They want foreign criminals deported and the right to remove dual citizenship from those who break our laws. Live here, contribute and follow our laws or leave.

I was talking to a friend this morning. This friend is very concerned about excessive immigration to the UK, and plans to vote reform at the next general election because she believes only reform have the guts to tackle the problem properly. I was listening and not saying anything when this friend suddenly said, ‘Don’t worry - you’ll be okay, because of your husband, and you’re a mother to English children…’

I was gobsmacked at first - then realised she was talking about my ethnicity (one quarter English/one quarter white South African but originally English/half East European Jewish). I’ve lived in England my entire life and as far as I’m concerned I’m as English as this friend who was talking to me - whatever my ancestry might be.

Now, remember, this friend was (I think?) trying to be nice and reassuring (‘Don’t worry, you’ll* be okay’) - but I felt quite horrified and angry to have this said to me - am I being unreasonable?

Can you point to research which shows that the majority of people who follow Reform are white supremacists?

Think of it as the other way round. Maybe at some point you have felt judged for your ethnicity, friend comes out with her voting, because she disagrees with the amount of immigrants getting in the country. You say 'suddenly' she said the next bit. Sounds like she thought she might have offended you with the first bit, then thought crap, and starting backtracking. I don't think she is a racist, just somebody who speaks without thinking.
