My french erasmas work placement colleague got racially abused last night.
Kicked out of his spareroom.co.uk house for being Muslim.

Was it the straight bananas?
Wlcome to Brexit Britain.
It's insane. She set her 10 dogs on him to make him leave after she found his quran. He keeps crying at random intervals today...
Trying to convince him to file a civil lawsuit, but I don't really know if it's good advice
10 dogs? Did he book a room in a dog shelter?
spareroom.co.uk We were trying to help him look for a place when he first arrived.
I think we may have chosen a bad place.
Huh?According to the EU's own forecast, the UK's population will increase to over 80 million by 2080 to become, comfortably, the largest country by population.

I won't be around then, of course, but it's frightening to wonder everyone is going to live.

emographic_balance,_1_January_2015_–_1_January_2080_(thousands)_PF15.pngThere is plenty of land in U.K. for more people to live, both for cities to expand and new towns. Population density even in London is still relatively very low
Is that trying to be funny or trying to be sarcastic ?
When you let me know, I'll know how to answer your question.
I know it's wrong, and only a complete shithead would find this funny, but well, sorry. I mean really there is absolutely nothing funny about it, 10 dogs and the discrimination and everything. Nothing at all. And writing woof woof on his desk when he goes to the loo would be a despicable act, don't even think about it.
Sounds like good advice to me, I'd also give your local paper a ring.
I'd love to know your real reasons.
There's something comic book villain about setting 10 dogs on someone.
Ok, seems like the EU are ready to go in hard.

I imagine very small dogs. I mean you couldn't physically hold back 10 big ones, so if the guy is fit enough to be at work they must have been little.
Poodles probably.
Just came here to post that. There is no way this negotiation ends up as a net positive for the country, and I can only feel annoyed by all the people who argued it would. What a ludicrous, unnecessary exercise.
Are there any (intelligent) pro-Brexit or optimistic reactions to the EU's negotiating position? Here or elsewhere.
- the UK will be able to revoke its notification of article 50 but this must be “subject to conditions set by all EU27 so they cannot be used as a procedural device or abused in an attempt to improve the actual terms of the United Kingdom’s membership”.
Can this not be a police/discrimination matter?
A short transitional deal is great for the EU. No sudden obstacles to EU-UK exports and plenty of time to hoover up jobs and investment whilst uncertainty about the UK's future trade deal hangs over it.
Well, UK wasn't a real part of EU anyway, seriously, who drives on the left side of the road??
I don't think @Bury Red said that at all though (unless it's somewhere else in the thread)
I didn't know people were not allowed to have an opinion on something unless they agree with you. why do my views bother you so much, when there are British leavers that live abroad, there are foreign posters who have never lived in the UK.
I left 10 years ago - before Brexit was even thought of. I still have family living in the UK, some of which voted Leave - unlike the Brexiters who hope the EU goes down the tube, hopefully the UK won't go down the tube either but they seem to be doing their very best.
Brexit, in my opinion, is the most stupid thing that the Uk have done since the 1930s
Police were blimming useless. I've had 5 major interactions with the police in my life, and they were useless every time. Sorry the caf policeman whatever his name was
Have you told the police? Sounds like a pretty serious crime and they shouldn't be allowed to rent out rooms.
If you look at how often people replied here, you can see that 4 people posted far more often than the rest. 3 of these 4 posters just repeat the same statement over and over again without adding any other content to their message. You are entitled to post how you wants, but that can become quite annoying, especially when it is done in a very patronising tone.
Additionally I agree with @Don't Kill Bill that his posts hardly echos the message, that he wants this to be a success. This comment is also spot on:
yeah they were there before I arrived.
They said they couldn't find a "criminal" element. One of the people getting kicked out kept asking for the policemans name and he kept avoiding giving it.
Such is this country
Don't all uniformed police officers have their badge number on their arm as a matter of course?
Tweet spare rooms. Make as many public posts about this as you can. At least the renter should be kicked off the service
Yeah he kept saying he would give his "CDN" or maybe "PCN" number...
That's how they're identified, if anyone wishes to complain they should quote that number.
And we're off......
Feck you Britain, for the most stupid decision in the modern era.
I voted to stay in the EU , but we are leaving there is no turning back, but this list is like the bitter ex who you are divorcing who just want to make it hard.
I don't think people comprehend how long these deals take to strike. The one with Canada took over seven years and it was a far less open trade deal. It's completely unrealistic to expect a deal in the two year time-frame. Like it or not, the UK will be out of the free-trade zone, for a while at least.
Of course they will 'go in hard'. Only a crazy person would expect anything different from an opening gambit.
May wants a tonne of things she's not going to get and is promising a lot of things she has absolutely no intention of providing.
Has been my predication from the start really. Within this timeframe we'll have a deal and an election, if the deal is poor you can bet the next election will be fought on rejoining it before the end of transition.
I have to admit I dont really understand it all, I do know that it will take a long time.
I have seen time quoted from 2 years to 10 years.
You and 52% of the UK.
I don't even know whether to be angry or sad. It's just acceptance now. I have been living in this country for seven years and last moth was the first time I have been racially abused and told to go back home.
I feel for your friend.
