Hi DG,
I am sure you don't mean that and are only fuelling the debate.
Of course Hitler not only said if you don't like it lump it, but also if you don't like it we need to wipe you out, so stay here, in fact, we will make sure you stay here so we can exterminate you and your race.
Regards
Chris

Oh I absolutely mean it ...Hitler was spouting very similar words in the early and mid 30's.....dislike of others quickly turns to hatred.
I don't think you can conceive what undertones these comments give off to the many UK based foreign members we have on this site.....and if we are honest there are few that couldn't look back through their family history and not find an immigrant somewhere....would you be here if the same intolerance was shown to them 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Whenever I go abroad (anywhere!) I try to know at least the basic please and thank you in the language which gets you a long way. I also try to be part of the local customs including the foods etc rather than finding the local McD's!!!
