So people can protest more than one thing?

But only those two and not the injustices against black people in Britain that you think aren't real?

Why are you going on about only protesting one thing, and who said ‘only’ those two. You keep trying to put your own words into other people’s posts......

'So while they are happy to daub paint on British historical figures such as Churchill because it offends their sensibilities, they have completely ignored or refused to accept what is happening to the people in China and Hong Kong.'

The suggestion here is that the people 'daubing paint' are only able to do that, because otherwise how could you infer they've refused to accept what is happening?

No mate, as usual you completely miss the point and draw some weird obscure conclusion by assuming protesters can only protest one issue at a time.....

I’ll grant you not all are spoilt and selfish. Their activism is a wonderful thing, it’s just misdirected. So while they are happy to daub paint on British historical figures such as Churchill because it offends their sensibilities, they have completely ignored or refused to accept what is happening to the people in China and Hong Kong. I just find it a bit weird that they are more concerned about someone’s ‘feelings’ than about people who are in forced labour or having their rights removed. People in the 60’s and 70’s used to campaign against Apartheid or War, things that really affected peoples lives, now it‘s against perceived sleights or events that took place hundreds of years ago......

There was very large protests when Uncle XI came for his full state in 2015 to the UK, I can testify I was there, we held back further than other state visits that would attract protest.

Compare that to the Trump visit couple of years later and floating meme. No chance uncle XI would be floating in the London sky, that tells us everything.

We were derided by the government of the time and all of the right wing press as being misguided, just like the black life matters movement is now.

You asked for an answer. I gave you one. I can’t help it if you don’t like it. I don’t see why you needed anything in the first place.
You said “I do not see this level of discrimination against black people”
Perhaps you should look harder instead of point scoring on Internet forums.

You did not give an answer, and I suspect that is because you are incapable of doing so....
