OP. does that mean not 'coloured' people are 'colourless' people ? :lol:

Anyway, I'm East Asian (BBC to be specific) and almost all Brits seem to think all East Asians (Korean, Mongolian, Japanese ...etc) are only Mandarin-speaking Chinese nationals/mainland Chinese ?! WTF?! :confused:

If you're ethnically Africans or South Asians think you have it bad; try growing up in Laandaan as an East Asian, otherwise just STFU!

In the UK discrimination isn't generally towards black people

Totally right! It's us East Asians that get the brunt of it; even from ethnically Africans and a few other ethnic minorities so it's been a while since I've been overtly discriminated by an ethnically European Brit coz hardly any of them in the part of Laandaan I've used to live innit.

Yes I have. 3 times!

1- More to do with my religion as this guy called me a 'raghead'.

2- Again, more to do with religion, was called a 'terrorist'.

3- More to do with my ethincity. In lidl when a old white lady saw me and said 'all these foreigners should **** back to their countries!'.

:/

I was also called a raghead!

I don't live in London but I do live in a town that is quite close to it. I have, as a black person, experienced discrimination too. When I'm in London, I haven't (to my knowledge anyway)
