Problem is the Gypsies and Travellers barely make it out of school, their education statistics are shocking low. Two in three of these two groups probably don't make it out of high school and if they do they don't have good qualifications.

Source? I dont believe that really. And it certainly changed 180 degrees recently. I dont know about travellers because they do have a specific lifestyle, thats why they are travellers but actually they are ethnically just british, but roma are a unique ethnic group, and dont have a specific lifestyle except being largely a underclass.

 

[Mortimer]

Are you suggesting the Germans picked on the Gypsies just at random. They played a game of rock, paper, scissors and the Gypsies lost?

They picked on them because they were racist, and anti-gypsy. Anti-gypsism is a specific form of racism.

And you dont need to have Phd to be a decent person, majority even of british are still blue collar, and have a trade or something, not university degrees.

Of course.

GCSE results (Attainment 8)

In the 2021 to 2022 school year, pupils from the Chinese ethnic group had the highest Attainment 8 score out of all ethnic groups (66.1 out of 90.0).

Here's the British government statistics.

GCSEs are the exams taken at 16. Without them you don't go any further in academic education. I'm a little unsure of the system, but it looks like you get a score of 1 to 9 for each of 8 subjects. 9 being a top grade and 1 being a low grade. So English and Maths count double, so that's 9*10 = 90.

Gypsy Roma got 23.3% got 8 GCSEs. Which means they get, on average 2.3 out of 9 for each subject. This is the lowest of any group.

Travellers are 31.8.

The next lowest is 44.8, which is Black Carribean.

For Gypsy boys is 21.2

That's awful. That's less than half the attainment for boys (47.4)

1/3rd (37.2%) of all Gypsies are eligible for free school meals, compared to 15.7% for the national average. (this means they're so poor they get these free meals)

Absence from school

Irish traveller and gypsy and Roma pupils had the highest rates of absence from school, and pupils from the Chinese and Indian ethnic groups had the lowest.

www.ethnicity-facts-figures.service.gov.uk

Absence from school. Gypsies have an absence rate of 13% (travellers are at 18.8%), this means on average they're missing 13% of days at school. Next highest is 6.1% for Black Caribbean.

This goes up to 14.6% for High School.

Persistent absence for Gypsies is 48.5%. This means half of all Gypsies will spend a lot of time taking big chunks of time not at school. This goes up to 52.2% for High Schools.

Yes, perhaps. But why did they pick on them?

I think the thing that unites the Jews and Gypsies together is that each group assimilates less and sticks together in their group more. I'm not saying this is a bad thing, but it's something common for both. And it's something that might cause resentment.

If you get into an argument with an individual Gypsy, you might end up fighting the whole of the Gypsy community. This probably wouldn't happen for other groups. Jews have a tendency of working together to enrich themselves, not a bad thing, but again, leads to people's hatred.
