We do need to address the issues of racism in our institutions (can't do much on a personal level). And we do need to make sure that all people can take advantage of all opportunities. We Brits are pretty good at taking onboard other cultures but could still be better.

I'm profoundly disturbed at the goings on.

The UK is nowhere near the same state of discrimination (and its consequences) as the USA. Yet the "knee on neck" event has morphed into a sort of violent "me too".

You talk about not taking over our culture. But our culture is evolution from our history, including the stages when we engaged in the slave trade. But the essence of our culture is attacked when Churchill is daubed as a racist; where the poxy lefty students no platform people because they aren't poxy lefties. Remember we abolished slavery long before the USA so the cases are nowhere near the same. Yet out on the streets they promptly came to breach the peace.

The assault on our culture has to be as attacked as the further evolution away from any injustices that remain which will be a slow process as there is no quick fix.
