Comment on The trouble with England – why rioting in the UK has not spread to Scotland and Wales

Yeah if they would meet more immigrants in person and not only in the fear mongering of social media or the right wing press there would be less racism.

Even just brits who came from immigration generations ago it would help

Economic factors don’t correlate either. It’s tied directly to mentions in the media.
