And the first link? You ran out of credit to copy that as well? Leave Nigeria quick, boko haram are approaching...the world cried out with France when 17 people were killed, the same week 2000 were killed in Nigeria by boko haram but nobody cared to cover it, Goodluck Jonathan sent condolence message to French president but never cared to mention victims in his own country.

I'm find and safe here, sorry about yourself in Nigeria.

You are just a selective reader, in this link http://atlantablackstar.com/2014/01/08/8-worst-countries-black-people-travel/ the UK was not mentioned at all, in fact Germany is first in that link, so why are you misleading people?

The second link the UK was number 5 and racism in general was disused not about blacks, it included all nationalities accept British citizens, did you not read that? ,

What Is the Most Racist Country in Europe?
June 18, 2012
by Gavin Haynes


Ever since Panorama broke the news that Poles are all massively racist – and what were we even thinking letting them have the Euros when they should be in prison? – the British press has been rumbling and wrangling away at people about it in that way it does when it has nothing much else to talk about. What the BBC have wilfully ignored is whether any other country in Europe is actually any better.

We at VICE are more scientific than that, so we cast a quick glance around the continent for racists.

SWEDEN


If you'd like to see a bunch of Swedish fascists in action you should watch our film Teenage Riot: May Day in Eskilstuna.

The Tag
The home of enlightened progressive thought and bending-over-backwards cultural deference.

The Evidence
FACT
Sweden was the first country in the world to introduce a research centre for racial biology – in the town of Upsalla. It was there that the idea of forced sterilisation of the mentally ill, the physically disabled, the gay, or people suffering from ethnic minority-ness, first found scientific credibility. Incredibly, this tactic was approved by the government, and was still technically legal under Swedish law until fairly recently. Before 1975, if you were caught with a red hot pair of scissors in the vicinity of a gay Somali's testes, legally-speaking, there was nothing the police could do.

FACT
A recent survey showed that job-seekers in Sweden have a 50 percent higher chance of being called up for an interview if they have a Swedish-sounding name rather than an Arab-sounding one.

FACT
Earlier this year, Swedish Minister for Culture Lena Adelsohn Liljeroth decided that she should do more to promote cultural harmony for World Art Day. So she ceremonially cut open a cake. This was the cake:



That's her with the plate, by the way. Not the one lying down. Note all the people in the background going, “Go on, Lena, keep grinning, that's it, yeah, God, this pic is gonna look great on Facebook when I do a witty caption about the end of your career.”

Verdict
Swedes are a nasty bunch of CV-binning cake-baking race haters, for whom tying the tubes of anyone who doesn't fulfill their eugenicised national ideal is as natural as tying their shoelaces (though we have to admit that all that eugenics has left them extremely good looking).

Travel Advice
Avoid if you are anything up to and including a Norweigan, have one tooth a little bit twisted or suffer from occasional eczema: you will be taking a Zyklon B power-shower within minutes of landing.

POLAND



The Tag
“Stay at home, watch it on TV. Don't even risk it… because you could end up coming back in a coffin.” - Sol "Factually Accurate" Campbell

The Evidence
FACT
In mid-2011, a large group of Polish football supporters unfurled a banner proclaiming: “Death To The Hooked-Nosed Ones”, illustrated with a picture of a Jew with a large crooked nose, at a stadium in Rzesow. The game was not televised. There were no players of Jewish origin on the pitch at the time. And, given that Poland's Jewish population is vanishingly small, it is not particularly likely there were even any Jews in the stadium at all.

Which doesn't make it any better, obviously, but it does, in fact, make the Poles in question seem even more unnecessarily pathetic.

Verdict
In a country which is 98 percent ethnically Polish, Poles have had to resort to being racist against people who don't exist. They probably maintain a sort of internal fantasy football league of race-hate, acting out this pitiful shadow-boxing in the absence of genuine targets. It is likely that, when no one else is around, Polish neo-Nazis force each other to dress up as Arabs in crude tea-towel and bath-sheet costumes, then beat each other with sticks just for the release.

Travel Advice
In terms of race-hate, wet-behind-the-ears Poles have never even taken off the training-wheels. Safe for travel, so long as you are not an Invisible Imaginary Jew.

GREAT BRITAIN


Photo by Henry Langston

The Tag
The land that gave the world concentration camps, the suppression of the Indian Mutiny, the hut tax and Roy "Chubby" Brown.  

The Evidence
FACT
In July 2008, the National Children's Bureau released a 366-page guide counselling adults on recognising racist behaviour in young children. The guide, which was called "Young Children and Racial Justice", warned that babies should also be a part of "the effort to eliminate racism". Nursery staff, it said, should be on alert for racist remarks among toddlers.

FACT
In May of this year, it was announced that the Metropolitan Police had banned the use of the term "blacklist" in all official correspondence, concerned it might be offensive to people.

Verdict
The British are suffering from a national scourge of toddler race-hate. You can't go near a British play-pen these days without hearing terms like "nappy-head" and "ethnic Albanian". Britons spent hundreds of years constantly using a deeply offensive term like "b****list", knowing full well how demeaning it was, and therefore the "language of Shakespeare" should be reclassified as "the language of Hitler".

Travel Advice
A nasty place indeed. Shouldn't be gone near with a barge-pole. If you already live there, for heaven's sake, get out now. Just watch it on TV. Don't even risk it or you could be coming back in a coffin. In fact, don't even watch it on TV, it's just too dangerous.

AUSTRIA



The Tag
Civilised, profiterole-enjoying classical music lovers and raging Nazis.  

The Evidence
FACT
Austria remains the only country to have given the world an actual certified ex-Nazi as UN Secretary General, in the form of Kurt Waldheim.



This is him doing what we all do when we're young and reckless: joining the SA. No biggie, Kurt.

FACT
Even after it had been sensationally revealed that he was a former Nazi volunteer, Austrians STILL elected Waldheim as their President. It was almost as if they all secretly knew already.

FACT
Austrians didn't just vote for the far-right politician Jorg Haider. They voted for him in droves: 27 percent in all. So alarmed was the rest of Europe with his policies that, in the year 2000, 11 countries broke off diplomatic links when he formed a coalition government. Haider was such a frothing arch-nationalist that he sometimes dressed like this:



Verdict:
If you try and flag down a cab in Austria, it will likely turn into a spontaneous curbside Nuremberg Rally. If you ask an Austrian for a cig, he will first offer you a "heil".

Travel Advice
Try to avoid the more racist regions of Austria. You will be able to identify these easily on a map, as they will be the bits that are within the borders of Austria.

SWITZERLAND



The Tag
Keep-to-themselves, sensible, moderate, gold-loving neutralists.

Evidence
FACT
In 2007, the Swiss introduced a law meaning that all members of your local community would have to vote on your citizenship application before you could win a passport. Since they did so, Muslims, Jews, Balkans, Africans and Asians have been disproportionately rejected. In 2008, a disabled man from Kosovo was rejected on the grounds that, a) he was disabled and this would cost his community money, and b) he was a Muslim. In other words, the system works well.

FACT
This was a Swiss election poster in 2007.  



The caption says: “For More Security”. It is designed to publicise a pledge to kick out all foreigners who break Swiss laws.

FACT
The SVP, the party behind the poster, is not some fringe nutjob collective who go waterskiing with Andrew Brons on Lake Geneva. It is the largest single party in Switzerland. It is, effectively, the Swiss government. Here is some more of their recent handiwork:



 
And here's another:



Clearly, reasonable men with reasonable aims.

Verdict
It's not just the Nazis' gold that the Swiss have hung onto.

Travel Advice
The only safe way for foreigners to travel in Switzerland is dressed in Leiderhosen with an alpenhorn protruding at a jaunty angle from your gob, a cuckoo clock in one hand and a Swiss Army Knife with a Muslim impaled on it in the other.

GERMANY



The Tag
“Really nice people” - The North Minehead Gazette

The Evidence
At the time of going to press, a comprehensive reading of the past hundred years of German history showed no documented incidents of any racial bias.

Verdict
Germans are the most placid, right-on and groovy folk on the continent. The only racism here is directed against them – so sort it out, brothers from another mother.

Travel Advice
Just let it all hang out. There's a reason it's known as "the Land of the Free".

Yes. All my life in Europe and America, hardly...I say hardly would any one visit Germany for tourism. Germany is not a migrant/ immigrants friendly country. Especially to people of color.
My half Zimbabwean/German friend moved to the UK, When he could no longer bear the racist taunt.
And you my friend think that is an "excellent" destination for tourism. I laugh in Swahili....
Do yourself some good. Read and acquire knowledge.

Its penny wise pound foolish. Have you noticed that some of them that preaches stay-in-Nigeria sermon spent millions a year to get foreign certificate, thousands on foreign holidays and some even married white women to get foreign passports? There are plenty very' hottly-pretty' Nigerian girls to marry.

Why not invest that money on schools in Nigeria or Africa? Why not take holidays in Nigeria or other African countries? Why do they work hard in Nigeria and spent it in western economy?

saxywale:
That's exactly why I said why not the beeautiful spots in west africa. Atleast I have been on holiday myself to Ghana and The Gambia. But why would anyone want to go to Germany for tourism

saxywale:
Germany for toursm
why not the beautiful spots in Nigeria or west africa

ferdimako:
You know ur license isn't gonna be canceled here for any unwarranted death. So you have to love it here as riff raff chicks run after you.

Ogbeche77:
Lol.. the same helpee that is currently disturbing peeps on the german travel thread for visa info... patriotic ko.. parrot ni

saxywale:
Nigerians are obsessed with money. Money is worshipped like a god.

Anyway, I would have stayed back in Nigeria if I was all about making money be it illegally.

Just like most westerners, I value decent living and excellent quality of life over millions.

Please note the decent living and qualify of life. You can't get that with all your millions in naira in Nigeria.

crowns2:
He didn't even put into consideration the the cost of the goods,cost of shop, transporting the goods to and fro, local govt. levy sanitation levy, etc. The huge money he see him collecting from sales most of it goes back into cost. I know spare parts dealers who say it isn't that easy as helpee makes it look.

@momoyama: Is Bahama free visa to Nigerians?

Nigerians are her worst enemy. How could we allow these type of inferiority complex and selfhate to eat through our skin and expect respect from other nations.

I give up on you Nigeria.

justwise:
You are just rambling, jumping from one pointless point to another.....read the topic again and see if you have anything to contribute.

momoyama:
But what does staying at home have to do with not requiring visas? Are you saying that if Nigerians never traveled they would be allowed visa free travel to more countries??

luvmijeje:
If indeed Israel offered us weapons and assistance how come we are buying arms from Pakistan?

I'm interested in the official reasons why Nigeria abstain from voting. I hope is not because of the above. Internally Jonathan shot himself in the legs with this because he has lose another chunk of minute votes he'll get from the Muslims.

Externally what's the benefits for us? Did the benefits outweigh the harms. Is this decision not going to draw the focus of the enemies of Israel on Nigeria? If it does, do we have the capabilities to take them on? If we don’t, are the Israelis and the Americans ready to budget part of their resources to fight them?

They should give us the official reasons why they abstain from voting?

JuanDeDios: So you expect "investigation" to be completed before they tell you how many people are feared dead simply before people might be under the rubles? Well, based on some of the things you wrote it seems you are poorly informed. A few moments after the WTC went down figures started coming out. The figures were later revised based on new knowledge. At the end there was a definite statement on the number KNOWN to have died with the admission that there may be unknown ones. On the next anniversary of 9-11, listen out and you will hear the NAME of EVERY known VICTIM read out. Did you get that? The NAME of every victim.

The media reported that Joshua has failed to disclose the number of people who were there, much less release the guest list. If you're telling me that if your relative was there you would have relied on Joshua for good information despite the manner he has conducted himself so far, I say carry go.
