My FIL is in his late seventies and has always had a bit of a Daily Mail attitude to foreigners. However in recent years this seems to have cranked up a gear (no doubt due to "all these polish and muslims in the country") When my FIL goes off on one of his rants, I try and put my point of view across ( bearing in mind that my parents are not British and I was not born in this country) but stop short of telling him that he is being totally fecking rascist and offensive. I feel my dh should do that - it's his father, and also I feel he should stand up for me. I would genuinely like to hear people's opinions. If you all think it's not at all my dhs responsibility to correct his father, then I will have no qualms whatsoever about bloody doing it myself
