To think this country’s gone to S***

Second time now I’ve sat down to have drinks with a friend only to be met with “I don’t agree with Farage, but…”

Cue a rant about Muslims, immigrants, how the country is not what they remember in the good old days.

More and more people are starting to spout this drivel about immigrants. Yesterday it was literally ‘I’m not racist, I have asian family, but’ and then cue racist rant.

I feel like the country I love that used to be fair and tolerant has gone to shit.

Apparently Labour have agreed to publish crime figures along with the nationalities of those committing the offences.

I am British, my parents grew up here, yet for 5 months since I moved house, i've been abused by racist mobs living on my street (the neighbours in all the houses around me and some down the street) and they've incited people from the pub next door to mob me too until early hours of the morning. These people are disgusting, it's a nice street and its known as a posh area- but no- the wealthy neighbours on the left are the Worst and it's neighbours on both sides plus anyone they can get to join in on the street. They talk about how they hate foreigners and foreigners on the street- Ive been told I speak glass polished English- they know im British yet abuse me calling me a foreigner etc. I've never even met these people, they started from day 1 creeping and lurking outside my house being super creepy. Ive had to call the police on the thugs so many times who have literally let them get away with it. This country really has gone to sh*t and I don't believe any non-white Brit is safe anymore here even though we and many of our parents grew up here.
