Sammy wilson "racist and xenophobic"?

[QuizMaster]

I'm a bit worried, I work in NI and am a foreign national.

My good friend Sammy, he's in the DUP
An outstanding member, as all the world can see
I said go up to Donegal if you want to have some fun
He said I'll take a run there if I have nothing on

I think Sammy is spot on, the cheek of these foreigners coming over here, taking our jobs, land, refusing to integrate with the locals, forcing their language on the natives, marching around like they own the place, I mean who do they think they are, Unionists? : )

Seriously, Sammy "Northern Ireland has always been part of Britain" Wilson established his racist credentials years ago with his 'leprechaun language' comment.

Nothing to worry about. Sammy was perhaps being rather insular but he is not racist..he has campaigned for better working rights for polish migrants and he is the only non-Chinese person on the Chinese Workers Association (don`t quote me on the name here, I would have to check the exact name, but you get the drift)

Did he have anything public to say on behalf of MLA Anna Lo when she was being targetted by Loyalists?

This is a perfect example of blaming johnny foreigner when times get tough. Anyone trying to justify this stance is in la la land. The DUP don't have the credibility to make these kind of statements and for them to be taken as anything other than racist. Scarier still, a lot of the threads seem to think he is just being realistic.
