I think they probably have a point about NOx problems in London and for

that matter on Teesside. I have flown into both often enough and seen a

pall of bronze coloured NOx haze hanging over the city. In summer it

forms an orange-brown coloured layer hanging above Middlesbrough as you

descend - not sure how bad it is now steel making is largely shut down.



But having said that I fail to see why Athens which naturally traps

pollution in the city doesn't also fail on this criterion miserably.



Blimey that's rich as most of the Eastern Europeans are here causing it!!!!!




Can I say that?




It is the sort of xenophobic comment we have come to expect from you.

"xenophobic" One of the most abused tortured words from the "do as we say" politically correct high pension/professional Guardian readers.


This country gas a fantastic record on immigration but it doesn't matter who
your are or what colour. sometimes the ship is way above the plimsoll line.



But lets look at the term Xenephobia "a fear of foreigners'. I wasn't in any way displaying a fear of foreigners , I was only trying to make a point about the EEC and their hypocrisy.


I have to say, we live in a world where if the baby doesn't fit in with the life style we murder it and yet you take offence at a mild gag like that? This really is a human problem or perspective and perceptions.
