    At least you've got the hang of using less words when you have nothing to say. <ok>

    Yep. Our school is 98% white.

    It’s taken very, very seriously.

    There’s nothing smug about it.

    Ther
    There is racism in your school? Really? Do tell
    Is 98% white racism or you’re just in a part of the ER with no minorities because of lack of jobs etc?

    How political of us to not let Hitler do what he wanted.
    Of course the poppy appeal originated to raise funds people who died in WW1 originally. Only people in this country find something wrong with something which honours their war dead.

    In America, another country. It started here because of Floyd, who was anpoor example of someone to launch a crusade about. There is police brutality all around the world. Why not demonstrate about that. Orare people too bothered about upsetting oppressive regines which supply us with cheap goods?

    I’m not in the East Riding. I work in a Hull school.
    And no, I won’t go into detail, I don’t know who is on here and I have safeguarding protocols to consider and any discussion may narrow the field of possibilities for potential parents.

    I will tell you that the incidents have been against both white and non white children. And both were dealt with in the exact same manner.

    I don’t think there’s anything wrong with a poppy at all, I think it’s a wonderful sentiment.

    Unemployment in East Yorkshire is less than Hull or jobs play no part in it.
    Surprising how many minorities you see represented in Brid now. A lot of Asians have appeared recently. Chinese, Vietnamese amongst them. Only time you see most of them is when picking kids up from school. My optician hails from Africa, won't narrow it down, and has some interesting views on immigration.

    You’re asking why four year olds wouldn’t take the knee before school?

    You’re aware that footballers are fully grown adults with social depth and the ability to understand context, whereas primary school children are children, right?

    If a child took the knee before a game, I wouldn’t mind. Footballers don’t have to take the knee, they aren’t forced to. There have been several games this season where we haven’t. They choose to do it.

    Careful, you will be accused of taking money out of Hull and living elsewhere. Some think that shouldn't be allowed.

    Footballers are under pressure to do so. Just like some claim they are under pressure to wear a poppy.

    I have heard them express similar sentiments about Somailis. Of course that isn't racist, like us saying something about the Scots, Welsh or Irish. Neither is it racist to massacre hundreds of thousands for belonging to another tribe.

    I asked, the people of Hull are fine with it as long as I eat two Bob Carvers a week and volunteer at Aunt Bessie’s for a month over Summer.
