Yes, I too have noticed that the ethnic minorities are fiercely defended whilst the Western cultures come in for a bashing.

Interesting we're not allowed to point this out otherwise we're automatically a closet (or open) racist.

Against the backdrop of the Prime Ministers's speech, it might be that the issue is finally getting addressed and perhaps a period of re-alignment is forecast.

I don't think we'll see it here though. These groups are staunchly defended and I puzzle as to why. What has to happen before they 'wake up'?

I suppose it's a bit like those who recently did the 'sack cloth and ashes' bit because several hundred years ago, Britain (like almost all imperial powers back to the much-loved Romans and well beyond) endorsed/encouraged slavery.

Must make them feel SO virtuous. Utterly unreal, but virtuous nevertheless.

Ah well, pin withdrawn from another social hand-grenade.
