i've just been reading your post about your experiences of racism in christchurch.
i was interested in this thread as i'm concerned about the number of my fellow brits, who it seems to me, want to move to NZ 'cos they perceive there'll be less mulitculturalism there than in the uk
i was really saddened to read your comments and i hope you are as ok as possible.
i hope it doesn't sound totally pathetic and pointless to say that i try to challenge racism wherever i see it occurring.
i've not been to NZ yet, so my comments are all anecdotal, but i'm concerned that as christchurch is a place a lot of brits settle, it might be our fault.
