UK was always the sanctuary of choice.
So funny when people hold up the UK as some kind of bastion of racial tolerance, truth is I lived there for 50 years as a white racial minority, I won't harp on about instances where I and my family have been disadvantaged by racial prejudice, but being part of the white middle class club has put me in positions where I have been able to see what lies just beneath this utopian view of this so called racialy mixed and tolerant society.
What I can say is that Britain has done a good job at silencing those who are racially intolerant, but just under the surface there are very many racists (well educated and in powerful positions) who once feel they are in private amongs their white only bretheren are only too happy to to spew racist jokes and hatred, they tend not to do this while in the company of a known liberalist thats why you don't get to see it Doug, A huge problem exists boiling just under the surface and sadly one day it may expode.
