I didn't know that - utter madness.

So how do you feel about all those terrorists in Bristol tearing the statue down? I for one call that a crime yet no one was charged. Also Shifty, I would be interested to here your view on the Twitter post that the Everton fellah did when he went to PSG with a picture of a baboon. Bolasie replied with 3 baboons. Now we can’t have it both ways can we? Or can we? My latest take is that the whole race issue thing wants its cake and eat it. Personally I feel the whole thing has been totally over egged. Most of us have left the racist thing behind ages ago. We all should move on positively and stop drawing attention to it. Like when Sterling just laughed at the Chelsea.

I can see your point. However, I was talking about Starkey's point about accents. In this interview on slavery Starkey says, (that it can't be described as genocide) as 'so many damn blacks survived'. I believe I can see his point, as I am a historian who has met him a couple of times, but it's an unfortunate choice of words, considering the political climate today.
My own opinion is that this is a warning to Grimes for being 'right wimg'. Same thing as has happened to several 'right wing' figures. None of whom are right wing in my opinion. Even if they were, in my opinion, it's their choice. It is entirely wrong for the interviewer to be threatened in this way but that is happening everywhere now.
As for Starkey, he gave a candid view several times on the London youth accent, basically stating it promotes violence and ignorance, and promotes unemployment (in that an employer will not employ people with that accent). Starkey said the accent was entirely fake and should be called out for what it is. It is these views that lost him all of his jobs. He's well off mind, he recently viewed a 16th century mansion, 17 bedrooms, in Norfolk, with his male partner.
If you do a search you will mainly find the rebuttals of Starkey, which proclaim to be research but are, as is so usual, just pseudo ass licking papers to maintain an academic post.

Just watched a specsavers advert.
1 pair of white eyes out of 10.
Maybe bame have bad eyes!

I’m talking about groups focusing on ending discrimination for their own race. White people aren’t discriminated against to the same level

Firstly how is that terrorism? They took action though as the statue was of a slave owner, as they felt it was disrespectful, however I don’t approve of doing stuff like that.

Haven’t seen the Twitter post, so did he post the baboon picture instead of himself?

I would love to move on but I feel like ignoring it won’t make the problem go away
