Comment on Will I ever be seen as truly British?

  Blood pressure is fine, thanks.

  You did, but I wasn’t wrong to object to your original, unclarified claim.

  The reason I did is that it’s the kind of thing that you hear being used as a racist dog whistle - “Oh, there are parts of London that are no good areas, you never see a white face…” etc.

  I’m not saying you were doing that, but the way you worded it left it open to that interpretation.

    Ah in that case yeah I definitely did not mean it that way, but it’s also not a good look for the left to come off as to utterly deny demographics when facts are very easy to find, especially if you have a pro-immigration stance.

      Not sure if you mean me here, but I didn’t think I was doing that at all.
