RACISM
“After two and half years they should be improving their English and we will be testing them,” the prime minister said. “We will bring this in in October and it will apply to people who have come in on a spousal visa recently and they will be tested.”

Very true.
ReplyDeleteI remember Donnie Munroe telling of how when they were kids in on Skye, Gaelic was the language of the house. I think his parents spoke very little English. When he went to school he was forced to speak English. It was against the rules for Gaelic to be spoken within the school premises/grounds, and if one of the kids fell over and skinned his knee and shouted, as kids do, for his mother... in Gaelic, then he was strapped. Wicked cruelty to kids to beat the Gaelic out of them.
Good post. I've never heard anything so ridiculous as this money (which they stopped only 4 years ago) now going only to MUSLIM WOMEN. Clearly if you are a Hindu man or a Polish woman it doesn't matter if you don't speak a word of the language. He gets more like trump every day.
And his warbling justification for his close friendship with Saudi Arabia and the use of British Troops to help them bomb MSF hospitals and civilians in Yemen was plain disgusting.
I was ashamed and embarrassed by him. I hope one way or another he stops being prime minister very very soon.
He is a despicable cretin.
I can well remember getting the belt at school, for speaking Scots, and not the "Queen's English".
DeleteI have absolutely no time for racists, or racism.
