Agree with all that outwood.

And if I seemed to be calling people racist if they didn't agree with me then I apologise - I didn't mean anything like that.

And I must admit that, until the recent events unfolded, it was not on my radar at all to be honest.

But then I got to thinking...

If white people, with the same qualifications, were not getting the same job opportunities as black people,

If white people were earning 10% less than black people,

If white people were much more subject to , say, stop and search by the police than black people,

If far fewer white people than black people made it to key roles in most businesses (allowing for the differing numbers of white/black people in our society),

Then would I speak out? I certainly would.

Much the same could be said for the inequalities that many women feel as well.

I believe in equal opportunities and a fairer society for all.
