Finally admitting that you are actually racist then surfer

Bear - I know you like to play twister with peoples posts but how the chuff did you get to that😮

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 05/03/2018 19:52

So 'no' in response to 'nothing to do with the EU then' was not entirely correct then.

FaithHope
When were you last in Italy, talking to Italians over supper?
They LOVE the EU.
These protest votes are not anti EU
They are anti African immigration and austerity

surferjet · 05/03/2018 19:56

They LOVE the EU

😂

What do you, Faith, Surfer, Time, conclude from your reviews, via Google (other search engines also available), of the outcome of the Italian election, pending, of course, the emergence of a coalition Government - left/right leaning yet to be determined?

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 05/03/2018 19:57

They LOVE the EU.

You have talked to a majority of voters in Italy 'over supper' have you?!

Good grief.

Not arsed enough about it to bother googling it to be honest.

Why?

JWIM · 05/03/2018 20:01

But arsed enough to challenge others based on what knowledge, or were you just joking, again?

surferjet · 05/03/2018 20:03

JWIM

What do you make of the Italian election results?
I’d like to hear your view.

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 05/03/2018 20:04

But arsed enough to challenge others based on what knowledge, or were you just joking, again?

I didn't challenge anyone.

I simply said I remembered something about having a bit of a problem with the eurozone, that's all.

It may help to avoid these misunderstandings if you bothered to read posts tbh.

surferjet · 05/03/2018 20:05

Do you think the result was a vote of confidence for the EU?

JWIM · 05/03/2018 20:05

I don't have one at present. Bit early to be drawing conclusions.

JWIM · 05/03/2018 20:07

All yours Faith. Look forward to reading more from you.

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 05/03/2018 20:07

All my what?

Havent had supper with many Italians recently so had to google😉 this came up in an article from politico eu, extract as for some reason I cant paste the link:

In countries like France, the U.K., Germany and the Netherlands, polls show a notable generational difference in attitudes toward the EU. Young people tend to feel more positively toward the bloc, while older people tend to hold less favorable opinions.

In Italy, the trend is reversed. Voters aged under 45 are significantly more likely to think Italy is on the wrong track (71 percent, compared to half of voters over 45), according to a study conducted by Benenson Strategy Group in October.

The study found that if Italy were to hold a referendum on EU membership, 51 percent of voters under 45 would vote to leave, while 46 percent would vote to remain. In contrast, respondents over 45 supported staying in the bloc by 68 percent to 26 percent.

Entirely anecdotally I speak to a lot of young Italian people living in the U.K. they are clear on two things. Italians love the EU. Italy is systemically racist.

They are deeply puzzled about Brexit - mystified as to why the U.K. would consider this.

bearbehind · 05/03/2018 20:11

faith I hate to tell you but quoting a poster word for word is not a 'personal attack'

Which part of surfers comment round you like to associate yourself with?

Do you think the UK is a racist country?

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 05/03/2018 20:11

What about my posts?

'All yours'

In relation to what?

You made a post about me challenging people (wrt Italy), I pointed out that I didn't.

Not sure what you're havering about tbh.

Moussemoose · 05/03/2018 20:13

I think we are awaiting your well thought out arguments.

Or we could just "google it"Wink

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 05/03/2018 20:15

faith I hate to tell you but quoting a poster word for word is not a 'personal attack'

No it's not.

But I cannot seem to find this in any of surfers posts:

"Finally admitting that you are actually racist then surfer"

So did she post this, for you to 'quote her word for word'?

surferjet · 05/03/2018 20:16

Bear.
I was the only leaver who actually didn’t mind you, as annoying as you are I felt a bit sorry for you.
But after this - consider your self blocked.

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 05/03/2018 20:17

I think we are awaiting your well thought out arguments.

Confused I've already said I'm not arsed enough about the Italian election to look into it though.
