Not much football to talk about at the moment. It has gone a bit political recently, here's another one for the mix.
For the vast majority of people the info that's been released in the commission this morning won't come as a surprise. The main take away being that class and family structure has a bigger impact on the way our lives pan out rather than the colour of our skin. Not much of a revelation for most, but good news that such a report is now out in the open.
Children from ethnic communities are doing as good if not better than white pupils in compulsory education. It shows how the white working class have been left behind. The findings can only be good news and hopefully will help remove barriers for everybody, rather than focus on specific groups - it says.
The term BAME should no longer used. Common sense again, these catch all terms do nothing but divide. Happy to see the back of that.
The Country does get a bad rap a lot of the time which is unfair. Some of it is justified, but on the whole we try our best to progress as a society. I don't think anyone can argue with that.
A long way to go for sure. You'll always get the psychopaths on social media spouting their intolerance and the blue tick mafia fighting back with them. Social media and the mainstream media are an absolute disgrace. Social media has turned society into a mess.
Best of out of it.
Poverty and class should now be the main focus. Time to knock this critical bias shambles on the head.
Britain is not an institutionally racist country.

Calling it out? Don't make me laugh.
All you'll get from that kind of mob is excuses, justification and whataboutery and "devil's advocate" sheet.

Try getting a job if you are male, white and over 50!
Unless you are diverse the big companies won't interview you, they all have targets to hit so they can tick the boxes.
I'm thinking of self identifying as a woman.

So GunaDaphne now?

There is without doubt age discrimination when hiring for certain roles
As a victim of discrimination it's sad to see you blaming diversity

All child abuse is wrong.

Why do these right wing loons like kids? They always seem to have indecent photos of kids.
Right wing terrorism now the second biggest threat in Europe, right behind Islamist terrorism.

Natzi terror you mean, or at least far right?
When was the last attack?

Tommy is not my mate and I and 99.9 per cent of people call put child abuse.
From all political spectrums, races, religions, positions of power.
