"Racism in the UK is in no way class dependant. Nor is it restricted to dominant cultures."
Of course not, but your statement would be equally applicable in practically any country in the world, not just the UK. My objection is to the use of 'English' and/or WASP (which would include about 80% of the English population) as some sort of benchmark for wickedness. The tendency to paint the English people as the source of all B.A.D is lazy and illustrates an ignorance of history.
