Breaking news from Headingley.
Yorkshire County Cricket Club today issued a statement saying how proud they were to be the first winners of the new Posthumous Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award for services to multiculturism.

Well at least the club have a new chair, as if we didn't know that was going to happen, Baron Patel of Bradford, not to be confused with Baron Patel of Blackburn but no sour grapes I guess I would be as welcome in Islamabad it adds to bring in new cultures I'd take a bit of Christianity with me the masses would love it.

You see, people who moderate this board pull threads, rather than deal with the individual posters

Its not how you deal with systematic racism on this board lads, and I fail to see how you can't see that

Moderaters aren't judges, police or lawyers though Lancaster. They won't know the exact laws and ordinary folk have different opinions on it.

I don't know what you expect volunteer mods to do but I think they do a decent job overall. Just get rid of anything close to the bone.

I guess I'm just weird in expecting blatant racists to be banned

I just wish it was only one poster as well

[Devils_Advocate]

You dont have to be any of those things Quicky to recognise and deal with racists and bigots and their associated posts. The mods do do a very good job but they let a lot of this kind of stuff go until they end up pulling a full thread rather than dealing with the individuals like they successfully do on football related posts

There's diversity of opinion and then there's racism and the two are very different and easily detectable

Just keep reporting any posts you find racist.

I think the moderators do an okay job Quick btw

I shouldn't have to report posts that are racist from the same posters

Just like a referee will just book 2 players on a football field instead of getting to the bottom of their fouls/tangle etc...
It's too time consuming being realistic.

Thats a pathetic response and is easily shown up as nonsense by the way they deal with other subjects

I’m more inclined to say leave it there for everyone to see and associate with that poster.

Unfortunately as we’ve seen with many posters who’s usernames have been banned, they just get another and carry on.

The problem is some posters see everything as racist.

Nope the problem is some posters are racist

[elwaclaret]

A Marxist would argue that racial indoctrination has traditionally been a method of divide and conquer by those in real power. Keep society blaming those below them in the social structure for national failure and not looking up at the manipulation from above. Of course we no longer need systematic racism now the need to hide power abuse is no longer necessary for the ‘money’ and they are free to openly practice exploitation of the masses.

Nope,the problem is some posters think other posters are racist when in fact that isn't always the truth.

The more discerning of us can see through the masks.

There are some quite revealing slips sometimes.

Well said.

Wonder what the odds are on Gale having his name in the report

Dunno but he's now been suspended due to an anti-Semitic tweet.

About time Gale was found out for what he is

[conyoviejo]

Are all Yawkshiremen racists.

[ClaretTony]

And so it continues.

Essex chairman John Faragher has resigned with immediate effect following historical allegation that he used racist language at a 2017 board meeting.
