I don't like being referred to as "the scottish" or "the english" and this is the sort of article that irritates me.

If for example it had been entitled "the pakistanis can stop sneering" there would be outrage.

Referring to a whole nation of people and accusing them of being "sneery" is out of order.

To suggest that they were all a bunch of sneery gits would be though as has been insinuated by this "gentleman".

Eh? How would you prefer to be referred to? Saying 'Pakistanis' wouldn't be remotely outrageous.
