Northernliar would be proud.

Rotherham has 6/7000 roma already stretching services.
Even Sheffield`s own David Plunket thinks his city is f00ked, and despite his criticism of the condems, this is a result of the plans of a former labour regime.
BBC are not saying much, ironically busy with euro elections, so local reports will be welcome over the remainder of the summer.

Why care about the future, we won't be in it?
They didn't care too much about the future during the 80s with all the asset stripping and deregulation and pandering to cliques. You have to adapt with the environment you live in, anything else is simply protectionism.

we are all world citizens, why because you are born in an area that is rich, that had first stab at industialisation and pillaged many other areas and took their wealth, should you believe you have more a right to a comfortable existence than others?

The Sheffield City Centre park which i take my kids to is extremely varied in cultures and nationalities.

Mainly Asians and Africans, it is near a multicultural school were i would hazard a guess that it is 95% full of children whose parents have recently come to the UK from Asia and Africa.

Do i feel uncomfortable at the park>? no, actually the opposite, i feel intrigued by all this differing cultures. How there lives have mapped out, the stories they could tell about war, hardship and mayhem in their native lands. I often say hello to them and have engaged in conversation with them  , sometimes they seem nervous sometimes open.

An Iranian chap i have got to know, who was a blood specialist back home and now owns a take-a-way told me how he was imprisoned for 6 years with his pals for protesting about human rights. He could no longer work as a doctor. On a personal level these people have a story to tell.

With the free flow of labour from the EU, there has to be a tipping point. Non EU immigrants will face the brunt of restrictions, yet there will be no points system for whoever comes from the EU.

EU policy makes the system unbalanced, but will it please those who realise the Asian and African immigration will be controlled further? Where is the real racism?

The one up from Devonshire Green Shane, heading up to Hanover Way. If i ever take a stroll into the City i stop off there for an hour with the kid.

Then the other way i go to the Botanical Gardens 99% white UK and then Endcliffe Park 90% white UK.

Well i call it City Centre but it`s only a 5 min walk from there to the Centre. It`s a smallish inner City Park Bob, it has these bouncy trampoline things, you would love it.

Good knowledge Dusty, do you know about the B-17 that crashed in woodland just beyond Endcliffe Park in 1944. MI AMIGO was it`s name.

I might add too that the talk was that plane was shot down....which was utter tosh since not 1 single plane was hit by the 'pom pom' guns during ww2, it was all for morale.
I recall the plane had been coming down for quite some way.

Yes American dusty, it was shot up over Denmark with engine damage. Then it crashed just over the park as children played on the field, eye witnesses who went to see if they could help, couldn`t help the surviving crew who were shouting from the inside the wreckage before the ammunition started crackling and then the inferno ensued. Sad

Don`t knock it mate, there`s no hype like other places but we stand tall with plenty to feel pleased about.
