For sure. BBC talking head last night suggested that the authorities had ‘perhaps learned something’ in being quick to give those details. However, if they were hoping to avoid a race riot, then the only way of dong that would have been if they had been able to say the man they arrested was white British. If he had been any other ethnicity, would they have released that information? In Southport, if the police had confirmed what people thought they knew about Radukubana’s ethnicity, would that have stopped racist assaults on mosques etc, or would it have emboldened those engaged in it to do more?
