In a former life, when I thought you cd politely persuade people not to be racist
Their response? "If you don't like it here, LEAVE". Which I'm yet to hear said to a white British person
Racism is telling black people who have a critique of their own country, they should leave
"It’s helpful for them to leave it out, it means they don’t have to do anything."

Hugh Pennington’s title - Professor - was not missed out.
