I am not interested in UK politics unless it is harmful for Muslims in any way.
In Pakistan, "angraize" word is used for the whites of Europe and America
without knowing it's real meaning. It means "Englishman" or "someone from
England". It is used just for a recognition. It does not contain any intention
of racial discrimination. All Africans are called "habshi" in Pakistan without
any distinction of country. This word is used for any black with African
background. It is a common word and does not contain any racial offence. This
word is just for recognition. "Habshi" means "some one from Habshah". Habshah is
the old name of Ethiopia, an African country.
Races of Humans are a fact. We cannot deny them. Races have been developed by
the different environments in which Humans live on this earth. Just as other
living organisms on earth, humans developed their skin colour, their bodies
dimensions according to the environment of their places of dwelling. Now races
have become recognition.
My sentence:
"I strongly believe in equality of all humans without any difference of sex or
race."
has been misinterpreted. It doesn't mean that I don't believe on the existence
of races. It means that all humans must have equal rights and opportunities.
There must not be any division of rights and opportunities based on races.
John's general attitude to my posts gives a clear impression of racial
discrimination. Look at your own post. You have objected and challenged my
opinion but there is a big difference between your attitude and that of John's.
You have written in a general way and have NOT used any offensive or aggressive
language or words. On the other hand, look at the very first reply of John to me
under this thread:

My original message was to Erika, not John.
