To be fair, I think everybody is pretty aware of the above. Although, I appreciate that some may struggle to grasp the whole concept of "cost of living" and assume everything should just be based on how much somebody earns each week

Correct.

My daughter lives in Oz and most stuff is double what it costs here, but she's earning 3/4 times more over there than she was here.

No as it's nowhere near where my family network is.

No family ties and I'd happily move back to my old gaff in Hillfields in Cov. Loved that place.

Talking absolute crap like others on here. Ok let’s pretend your family live at the top end of Deane. You work in Bolton town centre. You’re looking for a terraced house with a budget of around £80-90,000. House comes up on Gibraltar street. Are you seriously telling me you would contemplate living there? It’s even got a mosque on the street so imagine the points you would accumulate on here from your bullshitting lefty friends.

I work in an area with loads of Polish folk. They are hard working ace people and its a shame a lot left after brexit.

However they live in a part of town that's a fucking shit hole due to its cheap housing and proximity to employment. I wouldn't move there if I was homeless.

None of them are my friends and I wouldn't choose to mix with any of them as they probably dont like Bolton or pints in Thornton-Cleveleys.

Its not their fault the areas a shit hole, its just the affordable housing that landed them there.

Capiche?

You’ve already stated you wouldn’t be happy is Pakistani Muslims started appearing on your street so no point backtracking now. You made a racist statement pal. End of. You are just like me.

No pal

It’s actually laughable how people on here are trying to convince me that they would have no problem bringing their families up in highly populated Asian/Muslim areas.

I know a Bangladeshi Muslim, is he better or worse than a Pakistani one?

You’d better ask gonzo because it’s him who made that statement. But I’d hazard a guess you won’t directly ask him.

@gonzo, Johnny wanted me to ask you if Vic, who is from Bangladesh, who owns our local "Indian" takeaway, it's worse than a Pakistani Muslim.

I think he's too shy to answer the question, which is quite surprising

It’s funny how when gonzo made the oringinal statement you never called him out for it. And now when you do ask him you make it  into a humorous question. i think you need to grow some balls. 

Even London wanderer has admitted he’s a racist so why not ask him the question? And he’s a teacher ffs.  

Infact sweep tell me this. Have you in your life ever had a racist thought?

Difference is I genuinely dont give one single flying fuck if it could be deemed racist or not

Well on here you will forever be known as the guy who has a problem with Pakistani Muslims. Or maybe not as being part of the clique people will overlook that.

Yes, loads, where have I suggested I'm not racist? 

I don't like poor white people either, they're scum in my book

Answer my earlier question small balls

So you don’t like White people who are poor? What a ridiculous statement to make. A racist snob

I do hope people on here call you out for this statement.

Each to their own surely.....I  prefer the term "elitist racist" if you want to chuck around names.

If they're poor, then I'm not going to be that fussed really. 

Sadly, I'll going to be in a tunnel for the next 15 or do minutes, with no signal, so I'll have to wait to see what further you come up with 😊

So you have no problem looking down down on the misfortunate in our society?

It’ll be interesting to see what London_wanderer thinks of what has just been posted. He’s always full of opinions. A fellow boltoner who cannot stand to be around the poorer in our society. A Boltoner who thinks the underprivileged are scum.
