Yes, but that is the problem, people are following it, supporting it, without fully understanding what it stands for, that is the whole point, so glad you agree.
Is Karl Henry a right-winger too? More of a central midfielder. BLM is a far left movement and for that reason I object to it, 'Kick it Out' and other anti-racism organisations I fully support.
Oh dear, another little ego trip for the socialists!
Do some research mate, then you will understand why some of us are against the organisation 'Black Lives Matter' whilst understanding and supporting the meaning of the words.
That last paragraph is a complete contradiction, BLM by its very name defines a specific group i.e. ‘black’, if it were to treat all people equally then it would be All Lives Matter. That is not their aim anyway, read what the stated aims of the organisation really are.
This. And if we were go back 50 years we would see how far things have improved, we shouldn’t be complacent and should call our racism where we see it but in time things will get better still.
Once again, not what I said. Firstly, my comments are about the UK, not the US where I believe the problems are a lot worse. Secondly, I am talking specifically about the relationship between the young black community and police as described earlier in this thread where there are issues on both sides. What you have done is shout down my opinion because it does follow the usual narrative that authorities and institutions are totally to blame.
I’d also like to make it clear that I don’t have any black friends.
That’s not what I said, as well you know. I don’t deny there is a major issue with racism in this country but part of that is an issue with the family background of young black males.
