We have a Black Footballer criticising a Brown Politician because the Brown Politician criticised the Black Footballer on taking the knee for a Black Organisation that actually detests everything about the Black Footballer

Re: Racism

The three players concerned did not deserve the racist abuse. They might have not scored because they were not experienced enough or they were under too much pressure but their colour should not come into it.

The problem as I see it is that organisations such as BLM and the BBC (they are still at it, raking up racism from the past) have caused so much trouble, which is exactly what they wanted. Pulling down statues, removing our free speech and curbing the words we use has angered a lot of people. Suddenly they have someone to direct their anger towards, not the right thing to do but that's what has happened.

This is just the start, what with companies getting involved with woke branding as well, there is much trouble ahead.

Yep, I agree with all you say, its how it is . I've said it before and I'll say it again, BLM has done nothing for race relations. As I see it it has caused more bad feeling.
