British Not Brits GiveThe Same Respect To British People That's Given To Others
2 Years ago it was ruled insulting to call a Pakistani "Paki" because they said this was shouted after them when being chased. In the troubles in Northern Ireland in the 70's the IRA coined the expression "Brits" kill the Brits Brits out of Ireland ect. please treat us the same as other nationalitys
soldiers serving in northern ireland in the troubles of the 70's, were called Brits by the IRA. this was a derogatory term, the same as Paki for a Pakistani. our soldiers were stoned by children, spat at by women, and shot at by the men who called us Brits. if it is correct to take account of other countries feelings why not ours.
when there is a tragedy any where in the world any British fatalitys, are called British not Brits, so the media & MP'S know the term Brits offends lets put it right.
