Black News Presenters

[Theland]

I don't think the percentage of black news readers accurately reflects the percentage of black people in the country.
Do you think we are getting diversity shoved down our throats?
Putting the news on is like watching Africa News.

By saying they emanate from elsewhere. Fairly simple stuff, Sqad.

/// Well all I can say is that if ,in the 1960s,you had mistakenly called an Indian a Pakistani then they would have taken it as an insult. Don't know whether this still applies in 2018. ///

Even more so I would say, India still has a caste system, and Pakistanis hate Bangladeshis and Sikhs hate both of them.

[Sqad]

OK..OK......if that is how you interpret it, then so be it.

[Zacs-Master]

Well, they can’t be both, Sqad. They either emanate from Britain or somewhere else.

[andres]

What a mixed up world we live in ^^^^AOG.

[Sqad]

They can emanate from Swaziland and still be British..........but still black.

[naomi24]

Sqad, didn’t you know that black people can only emanate from Africa … although some of them are very definitely not black but brown … so it can get quite confusing. ;o)

[Sqad]

naomi....LOL.

[Tilly2]

...and even black Africans are different shades of black.

[naomi24]

:o)

[Zacs-Master]

I’m not sure it’s just me who’s been out in the sun.

/// " Next time you meet a black person of such pedigree, try asking them what it’s like to emanate from India or Africa or wherever you assume their lineage to have originated" ///

Are you saying that they are ashamed of their heritage, or want to be classed as a pure bred and patriotic British person?

[bhg481]

Cliff Richard emanates from India. Does that mean that he is black?

[Zacs-Master]

Sqad, I’m talking about 2nd and 3rd generation black people. Stop muddying the waters with irrelevant examples.

[Tilly2]

So does Joanna Lumley.

[Zacs-Master]

AOG, Don’t put words in my mouth. I said nothing of the kind.

[Zacs-Master]

Actually, the Cliff Richard and Joanna Lumley example serve to show the farcical viewpoint of those expressing the ‘Black therefore foreign’ ridiculous POV.

/// AOG, thanks for confirming your bigotry and xenophobia in such a concise statement. You really are unbelievable. ///

Ah!! I do believe I haver won the argument, seeing that the old lefties name calling has arisen.

Zacs-Master

/// Stop muddying the waters with irrelevant examples. ///

Incredible, absolutely incredible. lmao.

[Zacs-Master]

What on Earth are you on about. The day you win an argument with the nonsense you post, Hell will freeze over.
