    Thats the full judgement in the link below. A drunk first year Law student with a deadline to meet would have put up more of a case than that pair of imbeciles.

    Because the more desperate people are, the more suspeptible they are to being listening to far right extremists out of desperation. Gemma and those who fund her nonsense are all too aware of this (just look at the US for an example), so actively want these people to suffer as it would be something she could then turn around and blame 'the mainstream' for when the **** hit the fan, in an effort to radicalise them.

    I think delivering newspapers rather than writing for them was Watters level.

    and you can bring that other yoke with you,” Mr Justice Charles Meenan told the Anti Corruption Ireland party member, referring to John Waters, who had once lived as a cat until O’Doherty gave him human form several years ago.

    The day a poc tells me that 'racism actually has no meaning anymore' I'll start to listen. Otherwise jog on, whitey.

    Not at the moment but come back in a few weeks/months/years and see how far the goalposts have moved.

    Black will do me just fine.

    He has a point though. I remember Tara Flynn (who is pretty much a poster liberal) getting torn into by fellow liberals* on Twitter for referring to her husband as "person of colour". Give it a couple of years and it will no longer be acceptable and there'll be a new acceptable euphemism. Despite there being nothing wrong with being black in the first place and us adopting some hang-ups from the USA with their deep-seated history of racism.

    * For the record, I like to self identify as liberal myself, in case anyone thinks I'm using the word it its alt-right pejorative sense. But there is a sub-cohort on social media who are simply interested in points scoring and will happily shoot someone playing for the same team to score those points.

    Sure. But when people of colour (asian, african-american, african-american/white) ask me to use that term, that's the term I'll use until they tell me different.

    Why would you describe an ethnically Indian, Latino or Chinese person as black?
