It might alleviate all of the racism suffered on public transport. I wouldn't be surprised in some ways. In London it would protect the whites from racism and prove who is doing all the stabby stab.

That is what we are. The official definition is 'White British'. Your kind wishes to diminish and deny our very existence as an ethnic group. You are the problem. You are the one who reduces talk of skin colour to pigment, no one else. We all seem to know what we are talking about when using convenient labels. You are just looking to obfuscate reality with your usual merry of round of drivel. You are becoming a complete waste of time. No we aren’t! We are British. If you must add an attribute then make it a real one, like British born or culturally traditional British. Skin colour is a divisive irrelevance. You may want to think only of the pigment. I think of the implications. We are not an ethnic group. We are a very mixed and diverse group from many origins. More importantly we don’t share common values. You don’t speak for me nor me for you.

So in London no one with a white skin is a racist or ever stabs anyone else and all those with black skins are and do? Doesn’t feel logical to me. Perhaps it would be better just to call them racists and stabbers. After all that’s what they are. Classifying those who aren’t, just because they happen to have a particular coloured skin, is bound to cause resentment. It’s prejudice at a literal level.

Are the various grooming gangs in Rotherham, Oxford and everywhere else, racists?

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

I can understand the government trying to track demographics so they can follow trends and respond to them. I would like them to use language that doesn’t allow others to make claims that are untrue and build unnecessary divisions. There is no such thing as a “white”, or indeed a “black” or a “brown” race. There are ethnicities. Using these terms encourages racism and as it can be avoided, it should, in my opinion, be avoided. This Wiki entry covers the way this is generally regarded but also points out many of the issues I am raising:-

They are also men, may be cricket fans, kebab lovers and of Asian heritage. Some are important when describing their activities. Others not. Edited by Wisbech Eagle (17 Mar 2024 7.30am)

Identity & money politics also identifies the complete about-face from the Lefty BBC. Whenever they visit Ulster in July. All Union Flags, white people marching and not a peep from the beeb about all their usual identity b01lox. Its like travelling in a time-machine back to 1945. You do realise you are also making my point? Although I would argue it’s certainly not probably.
