Can anybody explain to me why.........

This “rich/poor” analogy is spot on Boingy.

I agree with a lot of what you say albeit I’m not anti rich in any sense.

I have no issue with people who work hard and become wealthy as long as they don’t start forgetting their roots.

I hate the Tamara Ecclestone types though who flaunt vast wealth having had it handed to them by family having never broken sweat for a day in their lives.

These people don’t deserve the exposure they get in the media.

I love the stories of the humble person who’s reached great heights be it financially or in exploits and achievements.

Agreed. I don’t have a problem with folks working hard and doing well financially.

Personally Al I don't think it is OK to wear the BLM slogan on shirts. Apart from their own rules which state that nowt political should be shown on shirts they have now clearly set a precedent. What next? Perhaps it could be 'VOTE LABOUR' or FREE PALESTINE NOW' on the shirts.

I agree with you - I said that in jest and it'certainly not alright when the poppy could not go on which represents all those brave service men and women who gave their lives to this country - then they put that slogan on!

What if a footballer does not want to go down one one knee - will he be called a racist FFS. That person could be very supportive but he may not want to do what everyone else does and do their own thing!

Greene King and Lloyds have had to apologise for distant links to the slave trade and now the RFU are reviewing the singing of Swing Low Sweet Chariot. What next? Amazing Grace
