No, I'm in the significant majority. The ideologies of the people in charge are actually in the minority well actually most of them are cowards scared to stand up against it.....The original Yorkshire board will be celebrated, in the future, for not kneeling and destroying people's lives over very little.....that is on others. Most people don't like 'woke', just as they don't like poop stirrers. Edited by Stirlingsays (22 Nov 2021 11.42am) Untrue, in my opinion. It will be very interesting to see whether there will be a national poll on this subject, but I wouldn't put a penny on you being right.

Public opinion is directed by the media.....most people aren't aware of the true nature of situations, only what they are told to think. This can be seen in situations where the media report on something an individual knows about....then they see how distorted the media lens is. The truth of the majority is found in their behaviour. Most people are not 'woke' and do not live the kind of crap that you promote. I don't even think you do.....you just waffle whatever crap you think makes you look good to your political tribe.

Does he claim to be a fine, upstanding Muslim? I think, at least for the moment, we can assume it's true. However, being forced to drink as a youngster is different to being offered and accepting one. Whether he personally has changed his position on drinking alcohol is irrelevant, as is his behaviour on the plane and afterwards, unacceptable though it was. It may be irrelevant to the accusations made against Yorkshire but it sure is relevant when considering the credibility of the accuser. Don’t forget he knew the girl was underage but still offered her alcohol.. Why would a Muslim change their position on alcohol?

That is an entirely separate issue, and ought not be allowed to obscure the really important one. Your codswallop just shows that the narrative you push is all that matters to you. Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (22 Nov 2021 3.14pm)

I am not so sure if he has criticised their character! He was much more critical of the culture in which the behaviour was regarded as normal, and acknowledged that they are personally good people. As he included himself in the criticism, there is really no need for anyone else to do it. What this is doing is distracting from the main issue, which is, no doubt, why it is done. So calling someone a racist is not criticising their character? Oh behave.
One more point |

Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (22 Nov 2021 3.14pm) It's the double standards of the left, within which I include the modern day Tories (with the omission of their grass roots)....When there is an over representation of non whites (usually blacks) in a sport they never complain about the under representation of whites and they become fully receptive to the meritocracy or cultural inclination argument. However, whenever there is a under representation of non whites suddenly meritocracy or cultural inclination isn't good enough and whitey has to be blamed somehow. It's not about 'equality' or any other of the feel good buzzwords: It's about power. Edited by Stirlingsays (22 Nov 2021 3.43pm)

I enjoyed listening to Michael Vaughan's takes on cricket.....Boycott was great to listen to....Gower and Botham top quality guys. Now cricket commentary is filled with smarmy kneel benders who cry on screen and play the race/sex card. Not in my name.

Posts from you which make wild and unsubstantiated assertions are pretty commonplace, but this one is a cracker. It is the most ridiculous nonsense I have read in a very long time. So you think everyone else isn't in control of their own thoughts, but are being directed by the media. Only the super-intelligent, non-"woke" people, like you, are able to work things out for themselves. Most people aren't "woke". That is just a silly slur designed by the regressive right to try to justify their objections to social change. Most people can tell where things are needed, and also when they go too far. Most people are fair and sensible. I don't have a political "tribe". I support politicians from all parties who do their job and think and act for themselves.

Don’t forget he knew the girl was underage but still offered her alcohol.. Why would a Muslim change their position on alcohol? I have no idea if he has admitted to being a lapsed Muslim, but he clearly is, or was. Many are. Many drink alcohol these days, either in secret or quite openly. That's his choice to make. Being forced, as a teenager, wasn't. I am not in any way condoning what he is accused of doing. Just putting it in its correct context.

He said they were his friends and that they were all caught up in a racist culture where such things were normal, expected and accepted. I don't think he blamed anyone individually. His target was the underlying culture which permitted it to flourish.
