Re: poor rascists :(
Speak Cockney. There aren't a lot of black people who speak Cockney. Just as much as not a lot of white people speak like Dizzee Rascal.

Among English speakers at least, there is a noticable "black" accent (or range of accents). If someone sounds Jamaican or African on the phone, it's a fair bet they're not white. There are white people with very strong Jamaican accents, but they're quite rare.

And I bet there is black people who have grown up in cockey-land, and therefore have a cockey-accent too

Re: poor rascists :(
Yes, of course. But just because there are a small number of exceptions doesn't mean that it's not a reasonable comment. I worked in a job where I would speak to someone via the phone before seeing them in person (at appointments, etc). In 80% of cases you could tell what ethnicity someone was from their voice alone (before you heard their name or their face).

Indeed. There is no doubt that if your hear some who speaks indian-english as I call it, its reasonable to think that the person is originally from India. My point is that a person gets his/hers accent from where the person grows up.
In Norway every little place has its own "accent", and if your good at it, you can pinpoint people to their little place, even seperate it from the next place a kilometer away.

Yeah, they certainly sound like hardcore racists.

Well, they are BNP members. And they do have an objection to this fellow being their DJ, apparently because of his race, as far as I can tell. So I think it doesn't take a huge leap of faith to conclude that they are quite likely to be racists, 'hardcore' or no.
Also, since when should we takes these people's word at face value? How do you know that's a reasoanble report on what happened?

Yeah they objected so strongly that most of them stayed, and amended their speeches so as to avoid causing him offence. I wouldn't say they are the most 'hardcore' group of racists I've ever heard about, since I recall reading somewhere that a Ku Klux Klan member once deliberately avoided a shop which employed a black store assistant, but they do seem pretty racist anyway.

You don't know it's a reasonable report. They might have shouted racist abuse at him all night. They might not have. How do you know that's NOT a reasonable report on what happened?

I didn't say it neccesarily wasn't. It may very well be. However, I'd care to employ a healthy dose of specticism here, considering the source.
The only curious thing here is that Nod wishes to apparently swallow the reports of these people so eagerly, and indeed, apparently provoke a largely pointless debate as to these people's politics.

Personally I'm inclined to believe the report but maybe I'm giving Mirror.co.uk too much credit by assuming that they actually spoke to the DJ in question :\

Well, I'm being spectical simply because in that report, as far as I can see, we have only the quoted accounts of BNP members as to what happened. I would really imagine that if the DJ had been spoken to, he would have been quoted far more extensively - he wouldn't have been a person you would not have wished to have simply ignored, from a journalistic standpoint.

Re: poor rascists :(
The first time i saw a young black guy with a strong Glaswegian accect i was taken aback.
It's strange how we formulate oppinions so much about people just by first impressions.

It does go to show that they understand that their positions are offensive and racist, if they edited their speeches and took the Jam Jar prize out of the raffle.

Nah, get them to say ASK. Black people say AKS, apparently.

Can anybody enlighten me as to what "spectical" means? I tried the online dictionary but it failed produce any results. Or should it read "skeptical" as that was what my mind assumed it said when I read it for the first time?
