Through the weekend, #Postrefracism has been trending, and its contents provide a disheartening view of how Britain's vote to leave the European Union may be emboldening those who harbor virulent racist sentiments. Police in west London were investigating what they called a "racially motivated" attack against the Polish Social and Cultural Association. Poles make up the largest foreign-born population in the United Kingdom. The organization's building was apparently defaced Thiwith graffiti that said, "Go home." In Cambridgeshire, leaflets were apparently distributed with “Leave the EU/No more Polish vermin” written in both English and Polish.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE]"Table next to me says to Polish waitress "How come you're so cheerful? You're going home." Him and the missus started laughing." Disgusting[/QUOTE] This reminds me of something....oh wait. [video=youtube;J8A0uUYuId8]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8A0uUYuId8[/video]

My hometown recently elected a late-20s/early-30s mayor and it looks fucking hilarious on the guy. It's one of our weirder bits of tradition that survived. They'll usually only have it on if they appearing in public for some kind of event. Otherwise they wander around doing mayoral shit in biz-casual.

Shocking that a movement based strongly around xenophobia and racism empowers the xenophobes and racists.

There are multiple reports of people being beaten up in the street because they were foreigners after this.

There's word in the Guardian that someone in the next town over from me heard someone in their Tesco shouting "This is England now, foreigners have 48 hours to fuck right off. Who is foreign here? Anyone foreign?" then he started to interrogate the man in front of him about his nationality. I'm inclined to think that some of these stories are made up, though, so
[QUOTE=Jackald;50600746]I got told by some burly man in Tesco's to fuck off back to Romania because I was wearing "some fucking foreign shite" on my t-shirt.

All it takes is one of them causing an incident like that to make the news.
Fuck, and I have a trip scheduled to London this week. If I don't make it back, you'll know what happened.
