Joined Up Thinking - N O T

[Canary42]

How can Boris and Priti reconcile condemnation of football fans posting racist remarks with their recent support of football fans booing "taking the knee".

Sounds like blatant vote-catching to me.

When did they support booing?

Sounds like blatant political spin to me.

I condemn the racist remarks 100%, but cannot and will not agree to taking the knee, which all started when a thug died in the USA.

the death of George Floyd drew attention to, and accelerated, a visible protest started by NFL footballer and activist Colin Kaepernick in 2016. He refused to stand for the US national anthem, but modified the gesture to a kneel because of comments that he was otherwise disrespecting veterans.

Why is this in CB...*sigh*

Maybe ED can move it to a more suitable category.
