    Well until recently feck all was taught about black history in british schools

    Most history talked about medieval times , the tudors etc

    Modern history ignored the civil rights movement

    It's no good saying why should we be ashamed of our colonial past if we were never taught about it ?

    Your contact in a private school in newport is not representative of the teaching profession

    The teachers I know nowadays teach history including the bad bits about britain

    But it wasnt always that way , the teaching about civil rights , slavery etc was not on the history books at all for many many years

    Sadly I think she is representative of the teaching profession. We had incidents during the brexit campaign and the last election of children being bullied at school because the parents were thought to be conservative and of that bullying being encouraged by teachers. The lady I spoke of definitely thinks she is representative of the teaching profession and she talks to her colleagues and teaching union officials all the time, and not only encourages it but thinks it is perfectly right to indoctrinate young children with a particular political trait.

    Are you just bored and looking for an argument again? Even you know what you just said is complete bollocks.

    As a governor in a school, who’s spent time in the classes and has Teachers as friends I can honestly say this is bollocks straight out of the Daily Mail letters pretend victims page.

    Re: Justice for George Floyd petition

    An interesting take from Konstantin Kisin...

    You're going to hate me for writing this. You're going to resist what I say because you don't want it to be true. You're going to pretend that I want this to be true when, in fact, there is nothing I hate more than the fact that is has come to this.

    Here is what happens next:

    If protestors continue to deface monuments like Winston Churchill's statue and burn British flags on the Cenotaph, you will see groups forming to defend them. These groups will be composed primarily of young, angry white men and led by people with links to groups like the EDL and
    ...Tommy Robinson. This is already happening.

    The groups will gather in city centres to "defend our country". They will have names with words like "patriotic", "British", "defence" in them.

    Inevitably, they will clash with the current protestors and the police. Under pressure
    ...from the media and political class, the police will overreact. They will treat these groups differently to the BLM protestors. They will use force. They will detain people for breaking lockdown rules. They will issue stiff sentences.

    The media will do the opposite of what...
    ...they did with the BLM protestors - instead of talking about how "27 police officers were injured in "largely peaceful" protests", they will run major front page headlines like "27 police officers injured by far right violence".

    At this point, the majority of the public...
    ...will lose the ability to be nuanced. The double standards will be too obvious to ignore. Fuelled by a constant stream of images of white people kneeling, washing POC feet and publicly apologising, as they already are, they will conclude that their very identity is under attack
    At this point, all their sensible aversion to supporting thuggish far right groups will evaporate. They will believe they are in a war for their survival and extreme measures are justified.

    At the next election, which will likely be brought forward for one reason or another...
    ...fuelled by mass unemployment resulting from the economic depression, far right parties will make significant inroads. When I say “far right”, I am not talking about what the far left call “far right” such as anyone who talks about controlling immigration. I’m talking about...
    ...genuine far right parties that talk about *reversing* immigration and deportations.

    These parties will not win seats or get anywhere near Government but they will put a UKIP-like pressure on the Conservatives. Boris Johnson will likely be ousted as too soft and liberal and...
    ...replaced by a law and order hardliner.

    From here, I’m afraid, the journey is all too obvious.

    The only way to prevent this is to reverse the re-racialisation of our society. Either we learn to live together or the very idea of a multi-ethnic society is over.

    He’s clearly here to honour us with his infinite wisdom.

    There’s not a subject on this thread (and there’s been a few!!) that he is not an expert on.

    Is this a tag team event? lol If you honestly believe that people like that do not exist then you are either very stupid or very naive. They exist everywhere there is power, and always have.

    So you don’t think the pubs will ever open then?

    Re: Justice for George Floyd petition

    This is a genuine and serious question, so i hope nobody jumps down my throat accusing me of being racist.
    Was there a 40 pager on here when Lee Rigby got murdered, and was there any protests, marches or riots anywhere in the UK?
