Re: Sanctuary Housing - Racist?
I don't think they could be accused of racism - the term 'Resident' makes no reference to race, colour of skin, or ethicity, and they are unlikely to know that unless said resident has complied with the 'diveristy monitoring' which they no doubt have in place.
However, they could certainly be accused of anti-jingoism, or unpatriotic conduct, unless of course this was Sanctuary Housing Scotland (http://www.sanctuary-scotland.co.uk/) and they were still upset at the time about the result of the referendum

The consumer is that sleeping giant.!!

Re: Sanctuary Housing - Racist?
Look at the name of the first caller - I would be a cynic and say he's not British by birth / ancestry and thus this appears racially motivated against a British family.I'm the forum administrator and I look after the theme & features, our volunteers & users and also look after any complaints or Data Protection queries that pass through the forum or main website.

Re: Sanctuary Housing - Racist?
To be fair, it says "Dear Resident" - Not Mr Smith, Mr Williams, Mr Davies.
For all we know, the resident could be Apu Nahasapeemapetilon.
It could well be the terms and conditions etc not to have things / items displayed at the front of their property - no matter what they are - That's certainly the case with many local authorities.I'm an official AAD Moderator and also a volunteer, here to help make the forum run smoothly.

Re: Sanctuary Housing - Racist?
Just ignore the PC brigade. We're in Britain. The Union Jack should be raised wherever ANYONE pleases and our government should encourage it and protect us from such corporate bullies.I'm the forum administrator and I look after the theme & features, our volunteers & users and also look after any complaints or Data Protection queries that pass through the forum or main website.

Re: Sanctuary Housing - Racist?
Our neighbour flies the cross of St George too, if the council told them to take it down there would be riots round here. Anyway by the above posts can I take it that you will all be voting UKIP next May ?
Oh and don't forget to watch Question Time tonight, some idiot producer as decided to sit Nigel Farage next to Russell Brand, now there's a recipie for a good debate if ever I saw one.Comment

Re: Sanctuary Housing - Racist?
If the flag is of a reasonable size and presentation, ie not a white sheet with a red cross painted on it, then there should be not issue on private property. Unfortunately the majority of estates have rules and regulations, some of which stop residents from hanging out washing on balconies and outside windows. Others both owners and renters are bound by conditions and restrictive covenants, e.g. no charnel houses, fairgrounds, burial grounds or bawdy houses; all paintwork to be black; no bushes above 3 feet in the front garden etc.
Racism seems to be representative of colour and not ethnicity (what is ethnicity anyway?). That is wrong: in the UK we were of a great ethnic mix prior to the influx from the colonies and elsewhere, combining Britons, Romans, Angles, Saxons, Celts, Norse, Irish, Picts etc. The Irish are now treated as a race apart on the Census and elsewhere, but the majority live in England and many people living in Ireland and claiming to be Irish were exported from Scotland over the centuries. The real Irish (tribe) settled in the Wirral hundreds of years ago when the Celts and other Norse invaded Hibernia, previously invaded by Romans.
I do not see why anti-racism laws can be used tools by newcomers to gain equality when they cannot be used to enable an Essex man and a Yorkshire woman to be treated the same. You cannot be accused of racism for not enabling a person with red hair/ pale skin/ short limbs but these are all ethnic traits indicative of previous UK tribes.Comment
