Having lived here all my life, I second that completely. 
  That said, i'm for Affirmative Action in principle and however it can be successfully 
be applied, because the alternative [the 'good ol' days,' as some still call them] would 
verge on unconscionable.
   Too bad you can't legislate much less enforce conscience on a person.... 8)

from wiki:
 
The term affirmative action describes policies aimed at a historically socio-politically non-dominant group (typically, minority men or women of all racial groups) intended to promote its access to education or employment. Motivation for affirmative action is a desire to redress effects of actual or perceived, past or current discrimination that is regarded as unfair.[who?] It also serves to encourage public institutions such as universities, hospitals and police forces to be more representative of the population[1].

I don't believe you can 'enforce' equality.
And after living in the States for a decade, I have seen that 'race card' played too much..

Not sure Britain has affirmative action. Don't think America should.

   I also wanna know first is this what he really believes, or is this a lite version to 
make otherwise disagreeable beliefs more PC-friendly.

Also, is some form of Brit. race-guilt a factor in things going as they are? 
If the u.s. is any example, it's the only thing i can think of that can paralyze 
a society and make it stoop bit by bit to such moronic demands.

That comments page is extremely amusing!!!

Not listened to his rantings yet, but from what I've read on his site
he's walking a fine line, but that's all. So far, I tend to agree with
him...

So there's something wrong with spending all your spare time furiously
masturbating to violent internet porn now...?!

Sigh.

I've been a fan of Pat Condell for some time now, can't think of
anything
he's said that I don't agree with so far...
