Most of the non-white refugees and migrants are coming as a direct result if white, western colonialism and the murder and oppression that went with it, and as a result if the northern hemisphere’s exploitation of the plant making much of the southern hemisphere uninhabitable. Most of the refugees are not white - had Ukrainians not been white there would have been far fewer let in. Capitalism is a profoundly exploitative, racist system that cannot be fixed. Hopefully, out of the turmoil and misery will come a new society and world based on cooperation. It goes without saying that the American Empire will have to be done away with first.
Yes we have this brewing in our city. It’s going to create a further cost of living crisis to fix the damages caused by the extreme right. It will lead to authoritarianism where we will have less rights. I worry this is going to happen and also to hide what the Starmer government wants to do with disabled people. No one ever really talks about this in the UK like no one cares about us. It’s scary times and it’s not doing my MH any good. I’m distracting myself by doing a couple of online courses on autism.
The trouble is, as I see it, is the Government and the rich are racist and this inevitably filters down to the people. Where we live in London there are a lot of white immigrants from Eastern Europe and they don’t seem to experience much, if any, racism at all, but people moan about immigrants when they come from countries where most of the population are not white. This also affects attitude to wars etc abroad. No-one cares much unless those suffering are white.

Thanks for this. So many scribes out there piling on to racist messages, this is a breath of fresh air.

An empathetic message! But not just that it’s telling the truth - a truth we all need to heed!
Thank you.
