I don't think anyone gets a free pass, see Farage's accusations of Eastern Europeans eating their swans, lol.
I just saw a video of a Filipino nurse who's been working for the NHS getting racial abuse from 2 English dirtbags.
Living in the UK and paying my taxes for over 9 years now,I was planning on citizenship for 2026, but now,I'll probably complete my minimum 10 years for state pension ( which is not great, but I did work and paid taxes for it), dismantle my private pension, sell my house ,and go back home.
UK is in an irreversible spiral.
Interesting view point , I personally do not understand the divide against Eastern Europeans
To me when I see folks from Romanian I found them good looking , very European
When I was younger I was always facinated with various languages on the Shortwave (SW) radio which used to pick up international signals , it used to be a hobby of mine to scan the radio and listen to foreign languages , music beyond the BBC broadcast.
I always found Romanian music very interesting , cultured people
I said it before people will "Invent" difference if it suits them
For every 2 idiots there are 200,000 people who are well behaved people
For most of the Racists folks they try to intimidate people to leave
because they know the people who believe in Equality is higher then their racist views
Never Leave
stand your ground with people who believe in Equality
As you said you live in a respectable town, so you have built a good life for yourself
Majority of time if someone says "You Don't Belong here" or "You don't deserve this or that" , remember these folks are dealing with Mental Illness.
An Enlighten Person will never be bothered by the rattling of storm , he will sit sip on the tea and watch the clouds pass by him
