And Lenny Henry, and Shirley Bassey, and Frank Bruno, and , and .............

You get the picture.

Idris Elba? Floella Benjamin?

England cricket fan favourite, Moeen Ali, isn't British. Vote Reform!

Ben Kingsley, Joanna Lumley, Cliff Richard....

Same shit. Black people, violent ancestral voices. Perhaps this helped Ian Wright score so many goals.

Amazing how many crimes you can statistically attribute to being brown if you cherry-pick crimes committed by brown people.

Looks like we’ve got our own Charlie Kirk

In reply, Goodwin told the Guardian: “What I said isn’t racist. They devalue the term by saying this.”

Goodwin just reflects legitimate concerns of ordinary people but doesn't throw petrol bombs through the windows of Pakistanis. So not a real racist.

Nice of metropolitan arts fan, Michael Gove, to print this filth in The Spectator. Gove gave every impression of being proud of the school results in London when he was Education Secretary. Does he think those kids hear violent ancestral voices too? What about kids in some mostly white parts of England who don't get high grades? What ancestral voices are they listening to?

Goodwin's Law?

Why are all these right wing student groups led by people who haven't been students for decades, throw in the Office for Students as well.

"Aaaah but I'm just letting both sides have a chance to speak and see their ideas tested in the crucible of debate that is the public arena, and anyway just because something might be unpleasant that doesn't mean it's not true, and besides, if you're shutting down debate that's a chilling* attack on free speech and that makes you the real racist and aaaahh..."

*It's always a 'chilling' attack or effect; have you noticed that?

I wonder, what “ancestral voices” did Mosely listen to, or Tommy-Ten Names on his Irish passport

Yep, just another boring, formulaic journalistic cliché along with adding "-gate" to any minor "scandal".

Driving along this morning, I did wonder how many political and journalistic clichés and set phrases we could name: "let me be clear" as uttered by a politician is one that has pissed me off for some time now.

My ancestral voices are telling me to split Goodwin's head with a bearded axe and perform the blood eagle on Gove...
