If a supermarket, shop or anything else provides a good service that you're happy with, keep on using it. <br /><br />They can pretend all they like that we are all "the same under the skin" but this just shows graphically that we aren't. Most hilarious of all is "black history", "black studies" and "decolonialize" (sorry, yank spelling and Pavlovian response to make the red underlining go away) this, that or the other.<br /><br />But for sheer ignorance, arrogance, and a truly cosmic lack of self awareness<br /><br />https://www.100greatblackbritons.co.uk/<br /><br /><br />Marknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-26644913694885644262021-02-05T06:51:08.032+00:002021-02-05T06:51:08.032+00:00They spend a ton of money on advertising and, if t...They spend a ton of money on advertising and, if they start to alienate people they will have to change.
