The EHRC are stupid enough to do a blow-by-blow repeat of their previous shenanigans. I say: Yes, please do this - launch a deep investigation. Do it when our fugee-hunting Home Secretary is on TV, while Jeremy Vine asks callers whether black people can be British, while fascists riot in the street.

The Green Party has been referred to the equalities watchdog over its 'Zionism is racism' motion.
"The same group made similar complaints about antisemitism in the Labour Party under Jeremy Corbyn," says political correspondent
Terry Stiastny.

When he was 20, in 1984, Barnes scored one of England’s greatest goals when he lit up the Maracanã by slaloming though the Brazil defence before he stroked the ball into the net. Barnes mentions that game when I ask him if he can pinpoint the worst moment of racial abuse in his career. “It wasn’t the worst because I was laughing at this idiot on the way to Brazil, but it might show an interesting insight. Some National Front supporters were on the plane with us when we flew to Rio. One of them was sitting just behind us because we were on a commercial flight. We didn’t even fly business class those days. These supporters were funded by the NF to follow England. We would see the National Front flag draped over their seats in the Maracanã. We had all the football journalists on the plane and no one said a word. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/oct/11/john-barnes-interview-on-racism-and-society-there-are-invisible-banana-skins

Beyond clueless. The implications of the abuse Barnes and Wright received back in the day was that they weren't even human, never mind not 'English'.

The rush to speculate that asylum seekers are responsible for every crime in the news is a sort of opportunistic informational terrorism. Until it’s disproved it stokes fear and hatred. When it is disproved there are no adverse consequences and they know that they only have to be lucky once.

I had no idea of this extraordinary episode. I reminds us of how easily people can be declared "illegal" or "immigrant" rather than native. These are not natural kinds, but administrative categories. Striking parallels with the Windrush scandal. Of interest to all, but tagging @spe07.bsky.social

One key dimension of Musk’s far right propaganda push is his effort to reframe far right extremism as “centrism.” It’s patently absurd to those who follow politics, but it’s effective messaging when aimed at low info voters.
