If a boxer such as Katy Taylor is a devout Christian - which she is - then nothing. But if a devout Muslim then this. There is also the gender issue - a white English female boxer would be fighting gender stereotypes. This Muslim one is backing up gender and religious stereotypes - yet, of course, not the BBC angle on this. If it wasn't so blatant and a waste of taxpayer's money, it would be genuinely comical.

Yep, it's the emphasis of identity issues for a minority while you know that the emphasis of identity issues for any 'current' majority group is rarely if never emphasized. We see it from the political left all the time.....How the BBC website can claim to be politically impartial is beyond ridicule. If I'm not mistaken its current editor is a former Guardian editor....But unlike with previous BBC editors I've found it hard to find out who it is to confirm this memory.

Not exactly on the BBC but I think this 'Orwell' quote describes the type of person in power and control there......Not that I think these people don't have a right to work there....but I completely disagree with their view dominating it. 'In intention, at any rate, the English intelligentsia are Europeanised. They take their cookery from Paris and their opinions from Moscow. In the general patriotism of the country they form a sort of island of dissident thought. England is perhaps the only great country whose intellectuals are ashamed of their own nationality. In left wing circles it is always felt that there is something slightly disgraceful in being an Englishman and that it is a duty to sn1gger at every English institution, from horse racing to suet puddings. It is a strange fact but it is unquestionably true that almost any English intellectual would feel more ashamed of standing to attention during 'God save the King' than of stealing from a poor box. All through the critical years many left wingers were chipping away at English morale, trying to spread an outlook that was sometimes squashy pacifist, sometimes violently pro-Russian but always anti-British' (George Orwell, England Your England ) Edited by Stirlingsays (24 Mar 2019 12.50pm) 'Who are you and how did you get in here?
