By that, I mean it wasn't seen as acceptable by those in power. And, in turn, it wasn't seen as acceptable to condone it. Appreciate it never actually went away, but racists definitely didn't feel emboldened to do what they're doing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I remember David Blunkett's crusade against the asylum seekers "swamping" the UK, and the attacks on EU migrants in the early years of the coalition government. I think maybe it seemed better in the past exactly because people accepted it more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lionator Posted 4 August Share Posted 4 August I was only saying the other day, when I was young (10/11) I played for a county based youth football team and whenever we played against Highfield Rangers/GNG, our manager would always refer to them as the p word. Wild stuff looking back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this is nipped in the bud asap as it could spill into the footy season in a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
