Well that's weird, if anything you are opening the doors to more people like him. He's not from the EU. All you have stopped by voting out is EU free movement and actually not even that as we aren't out yet. Won't be for some time ... Read More

Absolutely nothing wrong looking for love. But this ISN'T a dating site and the original poster said friends. The guy giving his height and weight doesn't seem as though that is what he is looking for. Go to the proper sites for that if ... Read More

Brexit: UK votes to leave the EU by Veedushi
Hello everyone, This Friday, June 24, 2016 is a historical day for Europe. The United Kingdom has voted for leaving the European Union in a referendum held around the Brexit. The vote was held on Thursday, June 23. Thousands of British nationals, ...
Gutted, also the leave proponents don't have a plan. Also if they want to access the single market they have to agree to free movement of people. So NO point in voting out. Read More

Visiting London in Sept by owoade
Will be visiting london for 2 weeks next month. Will appreciate tips and advice. Especially where to get good bargains,where to hang out and how to enjoy this town in two weeks. Appreciate your response
I would never recommend a wetherspoons pub! They are often dirty pubs, shoes stick to the floor and the clientele can be questionable. Eating out can be expensive but I don't think you need to find a chain to avoid that. I find avoiding chains ... Read More

I've been living in London for a year and there is no wide spread tea at 5. However Brits do drink a lot of tea. I agree with the above poster though that you will see most Londoners reading all the time on the bus or tube Read More

Racism by Julien
Do you feel racism in your country? Is it complicated to integrate yoursleft with local people or are you used to it? I really like London because the city is a lot of people from everywhere, and everybody seems to be integrated. I don't feel ...
Ironically, the truth is the blacks in my town are all ....very civilized ....not what you would see in a rap music video and the majority of the whites in branson that live in trailer parks shacks that have spent their entire lives screwing up even ... Read More
