John Cleese, racist?

John Cleese recently twited the following:

'Some years ago I opined that London was not really an English city any more

Since then, virtually all my friends from abroad have confirmed my observation

So there must be some truth in it...

I note also that London was the UK city that voted most strongly to remain in the EU'

Is this tweet a statement of fact, or the opinion of a racist as the msm and other famous comedians such as Dom Joly have stated?

If it is racist, why is it racist?

The truth according to the last census, is that London is now a city where white English are the minority and are becoming increasingly a minority.
Not that that is a bad thing, but it is a fact.

[i]One of the reasons I cannot stand twatter...it's a cesspool of arguments and hate.[/i]

I love his work, but his political opinions are shite.

@basilfawlty89 So are yours actually.

basilfawlty89 · 31-35, M

@SumKindaMunster in your opinion, and as your opinion is about as logical as a chocolate kettle, you'll forgive me if I ignore you and think you're a moron.

@basilfawlty89 Ignoring me would not include responding to me though.

Of course, previously I've noted you as a obnoxious hypocrite so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

basilfawlty89 · 31-35, M

@SumKindaMunster no, it would still, I just felt like insulting you, seeing as you had to be an offensive git like you normally are. How's bootlicking for the bosses going btw? Still scurrying for scrap from the CEO? Still defending the state that sends young men to war? Real anti-establishment rebel you are.

@basilfawlty89 Ah so you lied then. I'm not surprised. I've noted that behavior before in you as well.

basilfawlty89 · 31-35, M

@SumKindaMunster Ah, so you agree you're a bootlicker then, seeing as you didn't respond to that. The point is, seeing as reading comprehension fails you, is that YOUR OPINION of me, matters nothing. It doesn't mean I can't insult you for the witless, boorish little man you are.

@basilfawlty89 It's not my fault your writing skill suck and you don't know how to get your point across. Maybe you should take a writing course or something.
