No definitely not.
I do think that people are more tolerant of light-hearted humour with racial elements though.

That's a strange question from the OP, given his unending efforts at racist remarks - or is he checking on his success?

I think I am more likely to get in an African taxi than do that.
I don't know what is worse for the Irish economy?
Polish plumbers or African taxi drivers.
Either way I would rather pay more for an Irish worker and look after our own first.
Ireland needs to get back to our old school values.

and he even manages to get a dig in during a discussion about libraries:

The African school children would have to go home after school to study as their parents work on the taxi rank.

Yes, I think Ireland is becoming more racist.
Just not enough though.
