I find the hyphenated identity thing in America quite odd. People are 'Italian-American' or 'Irish-American' many generations after their predecessors immigrated to the point that I would feel the term is sort of useless?

Compare that with here were anyone 2nd generation onwards is usually 'British' even if they keep some identification/dual nationality with the country from which their parents or grandparents immigrated from.
All their stats seem to broken down by the colour of folks skin. It's such a backward country in some ways. Orange skinned people are particularly despised for some reason..... Biden may not be the best candidate, but he's white, male and not Trump, which will be enough.

Climate change is the biggest threat facing the world. The virus is a minor hiccup in comparison. It may already be too late, but if Tango man is re-elected then we've no hope.
