Read that the fella and his Mrs have both been sacked from their jobs despite the police saying there was no criminal offence committed (not sure if true).

Can you be sacked for not thinking the same way as your employer?

The article I read, said there were “ other matters “ relating to him, not sure about his missus though.
 
During the whole Coronavirus pandemic and BLM matter I must admit the media have been alot heavier with their individual agendas.

I dont know if its because you are stuck in more that you are stuck watching more of it but has felt like some mad social engineering program since April.

Add the PL still taking the knee for God knows how many more weeks and seemingly ignoring their previous "no politics" rule seems something very sinister going on at present.

Yikes.

You can be sacked for being a racist, absolutely. What’s the problem?

No problem. I suppose it comes down to who decides whether the words 'white lives matter' are deemed racist. The police didn't think so.
Still, i have no interest in having an argument about it. Crack on.
 
Inexcusable behaviour though.

That's why the social media echo chamber has decided to ignore it instead.

Comes back to my point about socio-economics being much more important as the underlying cause of racism. Everything comes back to it - until the emphasis is on redressing the class imbalance in this country then nothing will really change, but unfortunately that's a lot more nuanced a debate that people are seemingly incapable of participating in, as skin colour alone is more visual and easier to superficially understand.

What this last night was is a result of lower-class largely black kids being empowered by anarchy being tolerated and indeed celebrated in recent weeks, so they feel they can do whatever they want whenever they want now. Which is why pulling down statues and making stupid demands was counter-productive; because they lead to pointless outcomes like this that actively damage the underlying cause.
