Beyond giving a loud minority a feeling of power.
It doesn't deal with any supposed inequalities.
Education is the only real way forward so as black people have the same chance as anyone else to attend school someone needs to take a hard look at what is going wrong from that point onwards. It is ridiculous people just coming on television and saying there are no black people in the Cabinet or board rooms. You can't just magic people into those positions. Rather than simply shouting at governments perhaps Black Lives Matter should try to engage with those who have successfully made it through the system and see if they can learn something?

I would imagine Most black people in this Country never even gave these statues a second thought , But then our Progressive friends got involved ,TBH the statues Should be Removed , Will the Progressives then move on to the Thousands of Temples worshipping Another Slave
Trader who also believe in Child Marriage and Eunochs ? |

It takes the heat of the decendents of these slave traders the ones that still benefit from their activities

It pisses off a lot of people who otherwise wouldnt have been remotely interested and sets back their "cause" a decade or more.

More specifically what is to be gained by the planned removal of Baden-Powell's statue from its plinth down in Dorset ?

Will the people who got cecil Rhodes scholarships give them back in protest, will black people leave the scouts in protest at baden Powell possibly being a nazi sympathiser, will people who received knighthoods,obe,etc return them in protest to the British empire for possibly being involved in slavery.
I dont think so, these protesters who wreck statues are hypocrites and animals. Gonna return your iphone because it was made in asia possibly by slave workers |

By:
Don't forget the wee 11 year old sent down the mines in the DRC to get the Cobalt to run your iphone. No doubt that irony would have been missed on the people calling for King Leopold's 11 statue to be removed.

They do. The biggest educator in a child's life is their parents. |

There are issues in public perception and self perception. Clearly in football management It doesn't help when African countries nearly always choose white Europeans or South Americans to manage their national teams.

education doesn't work because just like white kids all the black kids with rich parents send them private,in an ideal world instead of having one black student been taught at eton,you,d move the eton teacher to an inner city school and maybe teach a class with 50% black kids in it

We were due to remember the 75th anniversary of selfless heroes ........they would wonder why they bothered .

By:
It's being used as an excuse by the hard left as they hate British history and culture.
Antifa are basically anarcho-communists. The person behind the Bayden Powell removal campaign is a Corbynista failed Labour candidate. "We were due to remember the 75th anniversary of selfless heroes ........they would wonder why they bothered. " Sadly very true. |

statues glorify ...you don't actually need them ffs ...put them in a fooken museum ...you wouldn't have a statue of Hitler .
Now everyone is aware of their presence it aint gonna help matters keeping them there .. it will set back race relations further as for inequality, there is no such thing ...it's all in the head if my life was taking a sh1t turn i could 'blame' it on my colour if i was black .,but i can't as i am white ...so i just think hey ho and get on with life best i can ...... you have to remember life isn't equal ...some Blacks need to realise this ,most do ...an example would be if you're a very attractive women you have a greater privelige in life than if you're an unattractive woman in so many ways ....if you're born with a high IQ you have a greater chance of success, same with rich parents ...it goes on and on ...where do you stop ? you cannot suddenly change what is effectively nature ... blacks have a superior advantage at most sport and sprinting ....who determined that ? this is all stuff an 11 year old should understand , there is not much debate |

as for anyone racist on here...have a word with yourself

not sure if coachbuster no,s but he,s just described institutional racism

By:
all people are marketable to different levels black or white ...this race thing reading privelige is a nonsense ,we don't come neatly packaged in a box ...but too many of the blacks who fail in life are using colour more often than not ...what excuses are the failed whites using ? lol

By:
Blacks with a good attitude generally do OK and are well liked ...a bit like a White man equivalent

By:
UK very much the country most blacks would want to live in imo .... they themselves say it's a good country regarding race etc
who is stirring the pot ? |
