You want European only immigration from a select few countries. That means that half our squads’ parents would never have been allowed to come here. So they either wouldn’t exist as their parents would never have met or they wouldn’t have been allowed to set foot in this country. The footballers "parents" or just their fathers Dan ? Let's look at 1,000 young fellas kicking a ball around your local park ? Is this balanced, equitable & fair ? Are zaha & raheem sterling in a minority by having overseas mothers ? Maybe ? With the Rio ferdinand/Ashley Cole type footballers far more prevalent ? And as for Bromley's raducanu tennis sensation? Good luck to her. I wonder if she has been feted on telly in Romania & China also for lucrative sponsorship ? Tories/ labour like open borders cos it is good for investors & business. But there is more to gender-balance than a balanced National accounts.

It’s divisive when you do it. Not when they post on here 24/7 about race issues. If you think posting a picture with half the England team which all happen to be a different colour to the rest of the squad together with a political gesture and then claiming this is "my England" is not inflammatory, divisive and deliberately posted for that effect, then fine, you can have that opinion. Just don't expect it is reasonable for others to not think that way.

Notice how the left fall silent when there is obvious black ethnocentrism, yet when it's white ethnocentrism they scream neo Nazi and racism. It was never about equality (which doesn't exist)...but people love to believe comfortable lies. Edited by Stirlingsays (09 Jul 2021 12.33pm)

So why would I ask or care for it's origin? It's celebrating the black contribution to this England team despite a vocal minority or people opposing a gesture for racial equality. A group of friends, obviously.

Hence my whys? You would care if you were not prejudiced. That you do not care (?) highlights your values and your perception of others as less worthy. It's celebrating the black contribution to this England team .. Is it? If you do not know who created the image, where it comes from you will not understand If the image was reframed to highlight only white players and the world black removed for white .. I suspect you would care vociferously. Edited by Pembroke (09 Jul 2021 1.22pm)
