.... the logic to support schools opening used here by the vaccine minister ? It fills me full of confidence that he has his finger on the pulse.

Over 100’sand what did he mean when he said over 50’s twice
Have you been breathing in the fumes againwhiff of racism in this thread like Diane Abbot's numbers mistake.
Well, that's mature.Have you been breathing in the fumes again
To me the protests are all about structural racism that exists to this day. The protests in this country are about the structural racism that is in our society. It's not really about George Floyd and what he did in the past.
As an example;
Two incompetant politicians; Diane Abbot and Boris Johnson, neither particularly effective IMO
One is the target of hate messages, death threats and rape threats. Ridiculed in popular culture and the butt of many jokes.
The other gets to become PM despite having on several occasions having made and written overtly racist things and is considered a loveable rogue, a Billy Bunter type figure often caught with his hand in the cookie jar as another lie he has told is exposed.
Boris / Hancock / Williamson all get peltersWell, that's mature.
As ElBurro points out our non-white politicians get abuse more than white ones; Patel is another
Answers on a postcard then, why Iraqi born, Nadhim Zahawi gets dogs abuse for a relatively inane interview after overseeing one of the most successful vaccination campaigns in history.
Patel deserves it. She's vile and that's fuck all to do with her race or colour and everything to do with her personality, attitude and demeanour.Well, that's mature.

Oooh, not usually the case that I find myself on the wrong side of this argument.The three you pick backs up the point made by El Burro. There's a list of stuff with legitimate concerns with them three but Zahawi has overseen something we've got spectacularly right and because he has a poor interview, bang, the posters jump all over him.
We both know why.
So you agree he's doing a great job, had a bad interview and you piled in; you didn't think about why it was bad?Oooh, not usually the case that I find myself on the wrong side of this argument.
the interview was gobbledygook from a government minister who should know his brief inside out after three months in such a single agenda role.
I don’t think the evidence to hand supports your argument. I may be wrong but I can’t recall having seen a single criticism of Zahawi either here or in the National press since he took on his role until today
Please correct me if I’m wrong
.... and you gleaned all of this from the posts above did you, Scara, or are you just trotting out more of your usual bollocksA lefty says it’s fuck all to do with racism and they are deemed intellectual . A right of centre says something against a person of colour and they are a Nazi Bigoted racist.
I wouldn't say that. Your first sentence is fair enough but I wouldn't say that all people right of centre are racist and certainly not Nazis.A lefty says it’s fuck all to do with racism and they are deemed intellectual . A right of centre says something against a person of colour and they are a Nazi Bigoted racist.
1) I have no idea whether he’s doing a great job or not - you can put me in the same category as TAM on this oneSo you agree he's doing a great job, had a bad interview and you piled in; you didn't think about why it was bad?
Given he is Iraqi; can you think for a moment why he might be very cautious around the media? He and his family will have been brought up to be incredibly wary of what to say, what not to say, what's the angle? And it wouldn't have been to stop posters on an obscure message board from having a dig - it would have been to save their lives. His heritage and loved experience could have directly impacted on his media performance - and you (and others) jumped on it despite his success in the role.
I could have used the term frothing gammon to describe the reaction - but it's lazy, doesn't make it true, and an insult based on skin colour isn't helpful or mature in my opinion.
You say you're on the wrong side of the debate; I disagree, you're simply on a different side of a debate but it that's what it is - a difference of opinion which we are all entitled to do without succumbing to lazy tropes when we disagree.
No just the truth..... and you gleaned all of this from the posts above did you, Scara, or are you just trotting out more of your usual bollocks
