Well put.

Perhaps Morrissey is hoping England could be more like, say, France, where they preserve their national identity by putting all the immigrants where no one can see them? That works really well.

TBF you can't move on French radio for Hip Hop tho.

Most of it about how shit it is being black in France.

Somebody needs to break into his kitchen and see if he has a Ronaldinho bottle opener. That would clear up straight away whether he's racist or not.

You mean in the French national football team?

Saying "immigrants are diluting our culture" kinda clears up whether he's racist or not.

Elephant in room.

World Cups and Euro Championships in trophy cabinet

In my country, immigrants are diluting our culture. For the better.

Please pass judgement on me asap, kthx.

1p3 is not a country
the noise board are not immigrants

I say arrest Noizers and send them where they came from. 1p3 for the 1p3ers!

Can someone find that dude that wrote this awful blogpost for The Guardian during the World Cup, saying that France should beat Italy in the World Cup final because of the number of black players on their team shows how France has always been a bastion of liberal egalitarianism, ignoring the fact that the reason that France has a half-black national team is due to 400 years of colonialist oppression.

He then went on to say that Ian Wright was an "intelligent" football pundit. Shit was jokes.

Dom Passantino, Thursday, 29 November 2007 10:47 (sixteen years ago) link

The reason that Italy doesn't have a half-black national team is because they could never get their shit together.

King Boy Pato, Thursday, 29 November 2007 10:49 (sixteen years ago) link

honestly, i dont see how someone who cares about their country and wants to keep the national culture alive is automatically seen as a racist. if this was an african or asian country and someone was talking about wanting to protect it from western influence, who would bat an eyelid?

I'm sick of African pop stars complaining about immigration.

Noodle Vague, Thursday, 29 November 2007 10:54 (sixteen years ago) link

He cares about country so much he's lived abroad for 10 years? Nice work if you can get it.

Tom D., Thursday, 29 November 2007 10:54 (sixteen years ago) link

Also why when hip-hop recording artist "Fifty Cent" says the n-word in his chart smashes he's awarded with Grammies and gold records, but when I say it at my local pub I'm barred? Seems like it's one rule for blacks and another for the rest of us.

Where's Jagger to give the colonialist viewpoint on all this?

Dom Passantino, Thursday, 29 November 2007 10:56 (sixteen years ago) link

Mick Jagger is resident in the Turks and Caicos Islands for tax purposes.

Last time I looked he was sitting, quill in hand, penning a yearning love letter on the back of a slave.

Matt DC, Thursday, 29 November 2007 10:58 (sixteen years ago) link

If you say the N word, you get arrested.

For impersonating a police office.

I thangyew.

Mark G, Thursday, 29 November 2007 10:59 (sixteen years ago) link

Actually maybe Morrissey does care about this country, after all he's spared us 10 years of Morrissey. I thangYEW.

"He cares about country so much he's lived abroad for 10 years?"

he moved away because he saw the way things in this once glorious country were heading. if it wasnt for the erosion of traditional english culture, we might still be able to boast one of its true exponents (mr moz, in case you were unsure) right here where he belongs.

best post ever

"If you say the N word, you get arrested."

another problem you see. if i listen to my timbaland album in my car (british made, in case you were wondering), i hear the n word used copiously, yet if a nice young lady like emily parr says it, she is made an example of. double standards? i believe so.

I don't know Morrissey doesn't move to South Australia. I mean, every second person in Adelaide is a fucking whinging pom who moved from Bristol and spend their lives talking about how wonderful it is that the weather is 35 degrees. Jesus fucking Christ, why don't those people go back from where they came from?

King Boy Pato, Thursday, 29 November 2007 11:10 (sixteen years ago) link

OK, quick, somebody call me a racist.

How the fuck do you dance to The Cribs?

Noodle Vague, Thursday, 29 November 2007 11:10 (sixteen years ago) link

how do you dance to any indie rock? stand mostly still and bang your head about a bit

electricsound, Thursday, 29 November 2007 11:13 (sixteen years ago) link

Or that kind of weird effeminate version of skanking indie boys do.

Dom Passantino, Thursday, 29 November 2007 11:14 (sixteen years ago) link

I can't believe Geir was in London and didn't try to go for beers with us.

Matt DC, Thursday, 29 November 2007 11:16 (sixteen years ago) link

fuck, i would have fapped if geir was there.

That one guy that hit it and quit it, Thursday, 29 November 2007 11:17 (sixteen years ago) link

Have he and Morrissey been swapping notes on Knightsbridge?

Tom D., Thursday, 29 November 2007 11:18 (sixteen years ago) link

Geir was possibly too busy visiting the offices of Q and Mojo to hang out with you black-music lovers.

King Boy Pato, Thursday, 29 November 2007 11:24 (sixteen years ago) link

I have no idea if he's a racist or not - but he did the smart thing in getting out of England. It's a shithole full of angry, repressed, frustrated, alcoholic, ill-educated people crammed on to part of a tiny island. Give me the US, Australia, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, or Scotland any day.
