Interesting how, prior to this latest discrimination hiatus, the Camp coffee label changed over the years from a Scottish soldier being waited on by a coloured chap in a turban, to by a white chap in a turban to sharing coffee with a white chap in a turban.
We've already covered the morally outrageous sexual discrimination of Yorkie bars but, I think, a more subtle discrimination was putting porn on the top shelf in newsagents - with no box provided for vertically-challenged customers to stand on. Thank heavens for on-line shopping!

See what's happening yet or do you think you are looking at reasonable grievances?
See Trotsky and 'transitional demands'. Fourth International Congress? I'm sure WGS will elucidate .....

Blowed if I know. But, since your government's just destroyed more of our history than blm could ever hope to do, perhaps ask an 'ex-' Trot 'advising' Johnson (I'm sure your contacts could set up a q & a).

As I said, RB, 'our' history.
Unless you mean 'our' government; in which case I don't claim any ownership of it since I didn't buy it!
More: had the Conservative Party manifesto said 'We will establish a government of the talentless and stuff our cabinet with yes-people', 'We will abolish freedom of movement, freedom of assembly and freedom of worship', 'We will trash the economy and make you pay for it for years afterwards', and 'We will wreck the familial, social and cultural relationships, rituals, customs and creations established over centuries that make this country distinctive', I doubt very many others would have done so either.
More again: since the executive is ruling by means which avoid the scrutiny of 'our' elected legislature and decisions are being made by unelected 'advisers' it's doubtful that even this apology for a democracy is currently functioning with 'our' consent.

Meanwhile, in Gelsenkirchen, 'an early fighter for freedom and democracy' gets an erection:
