    I don't watch TV really so haven't seen any ads?

    That said though there is an argument that there shouldn't be a black history month as it should be all year round like all history.

    The only divide we have is those getting created by both white and black people for their own purposes.

    Such divisions are usually created by a certain political party.

    I agree. History should be for all, all year round. Irrespective of colour or creed.

    Racism exists against blacks, whites (think white farmers) and many other races.

    I agree about politics too. The Labour Party are getting investigated by the EHRC for a reason I’m sure.l and have, quite inexplicably never had a female prime minister or even leader.

    All parties dip in and out of racism when it suits them I reckon.

    After his recent performances I think they should reconsider the “sports” bit as well.

    Yeah this is definitely boring and tedious now.

    Still not as ridiculous ask the news Doctor Hibbert from The Simpsons is now going to be voiced by a black man cos that shows black lives matter so much.

    I wonder who will be the first PL team to break rank and stop doing the knee
    or do you think this decision has to come from the PL themselves

    Should never have been a thing to start with in my opinion. Sick to death of all these world issues getting melded with sport. I understand they want to use sport as a vehicle to help drive change, but it just ends up creating issues sport doesn't need. The whole symbolism side of this taking the knee is cringey. As we saw with BLM, it can be to easily highjacked by organisations/political bodies whose views have no place in sport (or wider society to be honest). Before you know it you're mired in a very complex issue. Keep it out of sport, stick to sport being for all and a good release from the day to day grind.

    The problem is they haven't got that much as they had little writing, and the writing they did have was probably burned in Timbuktu.
