This why political correctness has to be buried once and for all..Sex attacks on young girls by Asian grooming gangs were ignored by police for fear of stoking racial tensions, a damning report has ruled.A chief inspector from Rotherham was found to have admitted South Yorkshire Police force turned a blind eye to the harrowing cases of abuse, which he referred to as 'P*** shagging'. The unnamed senior police officer said: 'With it being Asians, we can't afford for this to come out,' according to the Times, which has seen an advanced copy of the Independent Office for Police Conduct's five-year investigation.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7901731/Police-chief-admitted-force-ignored-sex-abuse-grooming-gangs-30-years.htmlThis is massive but I can't find it on the BBC... Instead, highlighting their priorities, they carry this story on their headline page:The voice actor who plays the Indian character Apu in The Simpsons has said he is stepping down from the role, following years of controversy. But the character has been accused of reinforcing racial stereotypes.

Laurence Fox has been branded a “disgrace” by members of the actors’ union following a heated row on BBC Question Time.

His comments were condemned by a group from the acting union Equity on Friday, who called his words “disgraceful playing to the gallery” and dubbed him a “disgrace to our industry”. Crazy

From the Mail: One critic urged him to 'find out some more about white privilege', to which he replied: 'I would genuinely rather eat a lightbulb'.Laugh

Acting career hits the buffers; singing career doesn't get off the ground; does a Katie Hopkins and gives all the pensioners their first semi in years by being their new favourite controversialist.


Please do give very generously when he starts his begging letters.

Yep, its a long time since you you find someone who isn't "woke" getting invited on to *checks notes* Question Time or appearing on the from page of *checks notes again* The Sunday Times.

Poor little rich boy victim eh.

Fox's reply to the audience woman, accusing her of anti-White actor/singer racism was silly and self-defeating.

Fox should have acknowledged the attacks against Meghan and even that some have been racist but also that:
  1) the Sussexes blew their own foot off by, for instance, their silly games around announcing Archie's birth, or
  2) the press also attacked Kate at first, and Diana, and even more so Fergie -- all of them White

But he is an actor not a politician, and it showed.

From the Evening Standard article

"Responding to the exchange, Equity’s minority ethnic committee..." Laugh

You don't need to read any further, that says everything you could ever wish to know

Fox was called out by the BBC plant in the audience for being a 'white privileged male'

She was implying his skin colour and gender defined his opinion on the Meghan non story.

Of course she was being racist.

For a minute, let's play along with Ms Boyle 'argument'. I wonder if she thinks Meghan is a privileged mixed race woman? She was privately educated from the age of 2....

You are looking at members of a fairly easy going society who wish to change it to only their ideology.  Only their way no other way.
It will be interesting when it clashes with the growing diaspora who will never integrate.

The concept of 'white privilege' is that ALL white people are privileged by virtue of being white, even if they are living in a doorway. Wealth is not a factor.

Excellent interview here, over an hour but well worth your time listening, so much that resonates.

Indeed.  Listened to the podcast last night.  They did well to get him the day after QT aired.

I didn't realise until now that the woman in the audience Rachel Boyle was mixed race.

Should I be more woke or does it just mean I don't see a persons colour?

Probably need to ask new people that I meet now, 'How do you identify'.

Might be a touch risky asking a big 6'6" shaven-headed, tattooed bloke in a pub the question.
