The UN race relations envoy thinks so, but then she also wrote this:

/// 'Austerity measures have been disproportionately detrimental to racial and ethnic minority communities. Unsurprisingly, austerity has had especially pronounced inter-sectional consequences, making women of colour the worst affected.' ///

No
No, it was already ingrained in the Labour party.
I do know, from the experiences of friends, that it seemed to give people "permission" to express unpleasant and untrue views much more openly.
What The Funicular are inter-sectional consequences?
"Intersectionality is an analytic framework which attempts to identify how interlocking systems of power impact those who are most marginalized in society. Intersectionality considers that the various forms of what it sees as social stratification, such as class, race, sexual orientation, age,  disability and gender, do not exist separately from each other but are complexly interwoven."

Clear now?????
LOL!!!
Woofgang's point is similar to mine, seems it's more overt than once it was.
Yes.
Sorry, wasn’t clear enough.
YES.
No. And no one has more permission to express views than before, even if those already holding such opinions may be more emboldened to. The idea that the country has changed to be more racist is ludicrous and expressing such a lie, is offensive. She merely lessens any respect one may have had for the UN by gratuitously insulting us in their name. Shame on her and the organisation she is representing. They may apologize in their own time.
