The only reason someone would look up old texts from when Azeem Rafiq was 19 to find something incriminating, is to undermine what he exposed about UK racism.
I.e It's someone specifically trying to protect racism in the UK.
Make sure you know which agenda you're supporting.
Every time I hear someone like Azeem Rafiq speak out about racism in their workplace, I think about the silence of their colleagues. It doesn't matter if that silence is due to enjoyment of the racism, to ignorance, fear or cowardice - to a racist, silence is a standing ovation.
@johnbrownreborn @BobMakeup2 @potent_prophett @AzeemRafiq30 Trying to prove you’re not racist because you have black friends, meanwhile belittling those friends with racist comments. 😬
The disrespect is unreal. ‘Inappropriate behaviour’ Can’t they bring themselves to say the word 🤬
Noone will understand the pain Azeem has gone through & seems like Yorkshire don’t give a damn.
This is not an apology and there is no realisation here @AzeemRafiq30@YorkshireCCC
@AzeemRafiq30@ycsplcricket He can blatantly be a disgusting racist and just get a warning that if he does it again he will be punished!! We all seen before that this isn’t a one time thing 🤮
This is the comment from a club chairman & someone involved with junior cricket -
Sanctions by @ycsplcricket are a suspended sentences so no sanctions immediately
Am I surprised?? Absolutely not
This is another GREEN light to racism
@frostick31@AzeemRafiq30 2nd why do you think your comment about Azeem on a night out is relevant? Would you say to a rape victim.... yes but you slept around🤔. You say you don’t condone racism but you’re choosing to dismiss it because of your opinion of someone. #youarepartoftheproblem#thatsfuckedup
@frostick31@AzeemRafiq30 You really don’t get it! Firstly nobody really cares if you say it’s true or not. Were you even at the club when Azeem was 15 or choosing to believe one persons story over another?
@frostick31@AzeemRafiq30 You know this isn’t true? Because there’s witnesses that would say otherwise? Your response to Azeem sharing the statement was a defamatory comment about him. No reference to his experience. I’d say that’s fucked up!
@frostick31@AzeemRafiq30 Find it incredible that someone’s response to allegations of racism is defamation of their character!!! The same kind of thought process that think women in short skirts deserve to be raped ✋🏽
@cricket_badger@AzeemRafiq30@YorkshireCCC@ECB_cricket We also need the non Asian businesses to stand up!!! Sometimes doing the right thing is more important than making that sale. I’ve been faced with clients that are openly racist. I have made the choice I’d rather lose business than my morals!! #TimeForChange
@cricket_badger Oops he thought defamating @AzeemRafiq30 character was a good way to deflect the issue of racism @YorkshireCCC to either be deserved or made up. They are all in this together!! Roger needs removing
@WisdenCricket@ECB_YSPL YSPL CM thinks his opinion of Azeem has any relevance to allegations of racism. His comment ‘as ye sow so shall ye reap”Suggests that him being “difficult”would mean he deserved to be subject to racism! If he’s not removed from his position it shows how deep rooted the problem is
