    I’m originally from Brazil and have been living in Britain three years now. I speak incorrect English with a very strong accent and I’m sure I’m foreigner all the way: I gesticulate a lot, kiss my British friends to their embarrasment and don’t wear the ‘British uniform’ (it’s black top to toe, in case you are wondering). Yet I’ve never experienced any form of discrimination. On the contrary. As soon as I open my mouth, people always note my strong accent and usually ask me where I’m from, how I like living in Britain, this sort of thing. People are very polite to me at work as well. I’m white, and many people at first think I’m from Spain or Italy, so I cannot say anything about being black in Britain. I’m sorry to know about your bad experience – something must have happened to you to reach such a conclusion.
