Don't believe it fake news by the far right, where is the diversity all I see are white people.

According to BBC drama we had lots of diversity back then.

One more point

Clips like this certainly show a different time, pre mass immigration and debates about the positive and negatives of that are fair enough. It was likely in some ways a simpler time. It's prior to mosts birth though, so there is a warm idealised glow and separation to it. It's not like its a montage of the tough moments of life from then - which is what some would opt to view now - as long as those in it aren't white of course.

Would those welling up over this feel the wonderment of kinship and brotherhood if they entered a room full of whites now? No, often they'd still feel the oddbod, not 'part of' their surroundings. Why would that be? The perceived yet unknown politics of others in the room? It's all get a bit silly. Easier to detach from the complexities of real life in any given moment sans self analysis and relating to others by peering through the one way net curtains of time.

Former chancellor Nadhim Zahawi 'pays millions to settle tax row' after HMRC investigation.

So your response to massive tax evasion is to say he’s a good bloke. He was feckin chancellor. You happy to place your trust in a government that put him into that position? OK the PM has changed but the party is still the same. But it never takes responsibility for its actions, just gives us yet another cabinet with Hobsons choice.

Zahawi is currently Chairman of the Conservative Party.

Zahawi is a sort of Tory version of Keith Vaz.

It is a bit ridiculous.

I'm not sure what is more worrying: the act that he committed or the fact he did so, holding the post he did, and couldn't 'get away' with it? Bit like your head of digital security being caught with a load of pawn on his laptop.

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!
