When I went to Australia I was constantly called a "POM"
When I went to the USA I was constantly called a " LIMEY"
When I went to Scotland I was called " A SOUTHERN *******"
The point I am making is this : People can say what they want about anybody else, but if you let it upset you then they have won.
Take these comments as a duck takes to water, and don't let it get you down.
Who really cares if some snooty MP shows his ignorance by making childish comments.
I am sure all the Italians living in Wales will make there presence known somehow my friend.

Anybody who is not English and public school, is a foreigner. This term can be further subdivided into categories of lesser usefulness such as French and Italian. Because they are so backward we learned to shout at them very slowly and in extreme cases to shoot them. Serves them right. they should speak English, kids of 5 over here can speak English, so why can't foreigners?
brionon Is this debate getting you the answers you really deserve ?
If you as an proud Italian found this remark offensive, lodge a complaint at your local Police station.
Any racist remark can be reported, let the Police and the CPS sort this matter out.
I accepted the fact wherever I was in the World that I was different, and an outsider, I didn't spit my dummy out or act like a child because somebody said something I didn't like.
I have Black and Asian friends and work associates who tell me that they endure racist remarks on a regular basis.
You will never change peoples attitudes and perceptions.
Brush yourself off, be a man, and forget about this stupid remark, or take the other option and get the Police involved.

Whiffey - I laughed at your statement that children over 5 can speak English. Have you listened to how todays youth speak? Sounds like trying to copy the new "gang speak" together with gestigulations to emphasize their point, and never ever finish the whole word. Oh! and I forgot that every other word is either f***, s*** or others of that genre.
