Damn, I thought I was doing quite well, but since I am British and not White I am actually unprofessional scum.
By the way, you forgot to laud the Sikhs and Chinese during your little ‘patronise the Asians’ post. The Chinese are even more successful in Britain than the South Asians.
Without wishing to split hairs too much, I have met and liked quite a few ‘ Muslim Pakis’. None of them have gone to Afghanistan to train, and one of them was recently being bullied by her Indian classmates because of the attacks last year. At least you are not the only one making crass sweeping generalisations.

I referred to 3 of the "classes" in Englands -> 1 The only ones that show any kind of professionalism are the Hindu and Christian South Asians.
2. The white lower-income scum are religion-less
3. and the Muslim Pakis are terrorist camp joinees.
At no point did I say that was describing all of British society. You seem to have inferred that to mean that there are only 3 categories, but then contradict by saying "I thought I was doing quite well, but since I am British and not White" --> so, you're not 1. a Paki terrocamp joinee or 2. a lower-income white.
You may be a British Asian, or you may be a Chinese-Brit. Your point about "The Chinese are even more successful in Britain than the South Asians." is quite true -- and that's one of the categories I did not mention (along with the white upper classes who made Britain the greatest Empire once upon a time but seem to have been stymied by the socialist Labourites)

Again, you're right -- that was a sweeping generalization. I have lived in the UK and would say this -- the muslims of Pak origin that I met seemed to be on the route to a training camp (just visit Tooting or Birmingham and see the streetside guys with their signboards) while the Muslims of Bangladeshi origin, on the other hand, seemed more interested in working hard and making money.
