An opinion piece by Dan Hodges from two years ago is the best you can do?

Farage is a rare thing. A politician who stands up for his country. He is not a racist, if his critics actually take time to listen to him he supports immigration but not uncontrolled. Its just common sense. His closest aide in politics is Raheem Kassam the son of pakistani immigrants He said he wouldn't want to live next door to Romanians. That kind of thing is the definition of racism. Making a judgement about someone simply based on ethnicity.

Found a definition of 'Racism' : Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior. 1.1 The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races. Thing is that when one hears a plethora of accusations about people being "Racist" etc etc one can conclude that the boundaries of what is considered to be "Racist" are continually expanded. I've heard some ridiculous and risible allegations in my time ! We have probably reached the stage where it is considered 'Racist' to say that one doesn't have a liking for "Irish stew" or "German shepherd' dogs.

Yeah, I don't disagree and I know I was being extremely picky. I do fear that it won't be long before everything is "racist". And before the opposite is suggested, I am actually blaming patronising middle class white people for it.
