Basically some people need to hammer on about things. What would they do if racism stopped overnight? Well, the Tories would lose their seats in the House of Commons and the British tabloids would be unable to sell their newspapers

So you're saying that racism is so expected in Britain that it's not even news?

I wonder if he predicted which foreign countries 70% of the hate emanated from?

He may have expected a tough time because of what happened to that other misser .... errrrr .... Gareth Southgate, who was vilified in the popular press in 1996. There was no mass internet back then so perhaps the overseas gittishness was expressed on Friendsreunited or by fax.

It's the same with the worse than the killing fields tweets. Most of them were abusive but not racial.

Putting sh*t through the letterbox of south asian neighbours is “not racial” in and of itself, of course…

Not uncommon practice in Brixton in the 60s, putting sh*t through the letterboxes of the last whites living there. Not all one way you know.

Whatever happened to white dog poo? It was very much a feature of a 70s childhood.
We spotted on the other day. It was literally remarkable. I think they were caused by the high ash content of dogwood back then. It was used as a bulking agent. I don't suppose we have the coal-fired power stations.

What happened to dogs just wandering the streets on their own? That was pretty common in the 70s.

Chewing bones causes white dog poo, no? I think stray dogs get eaten by immigrants now.
