Woke has been taught by the left, Labour and conservative have been to the left in recent years, it needs a massive shift for people vote reform then can finally get rid of the woke

Surely the Windrush generation faced more inequality than today’s generation? Don’t see many signs today saying “no blacks”

You're right, I should've been specific that I meant wealth inequality.

Much of the Windrush generation who emigrated were very much the educated middle-classes.

Over half of them were actually returning to the UK after having been here in WW2.

Also there was an exodus from the UK after WW2 of people who for one reason or another dreamed of a better life just as the Windrush people did.

in terms of home-ownership and getting up the Ladder of British society, that generation are here 50 years ahead of the Polish & other East Europeans.

so who really needs a lift-up ? a help-up ? who is hard done by in this society ?

Slav Lives Matter...... History month never tells our schoolkids the origin of the Word 'Slave'.

the Woke brigade seem to think they got the monopoly on righteous indignation, victim-hood and genocidal war crimes from history.

Wanna seek reparation monies for abduction of people into Slavery ? Let's start with Baltimore, County Cork.....sold into slavery in the 1600's by Barbery Pirates......i am off to Picket the Morocco Embassy.

Followed by picketing the Iceland embassy. Forget about Andrew Tate trafficking women to be his sex-slaves.....the whole of Iceland was colonized by viking men and their Scottish/Irish female teenage victims. The first slave ships in the Atlantic.

There was far greater poverty immediately after WWII than for the later generation of the 60's and 70's.

Of all the gems from the Caribbean in sport, music, literature, public service... you've gone with a bloke who pretends to be a priest for a living.

Ok....if I ever get married in a church I'd be happy if he were the priest.

You can have some of those cat non binary things that social liberalism is producing.

'A profound and permanent contribution'

They have survived, and thrived, in an often hostile environment.

It makes you proud to be British.

That makes a change for you as you spend most of your time on here slagging off Britain and the British.

Can you back that up with facts?

No, but you do see "no whites" adverts:
BBC advert 2018 "This traineeship is only open candidates from a black, Asian or non-white ethnic minority background."

Really? Then they didn't do a very educated job raising the next generation that I grew up with in Brixton did they.

If those were middle class kids I'm a jaffa cake.
