    I expect the Royal Navy to come down hard on these perpetrators.

    “grooming gangs” is not a real issue it’s just a racist dog whistle that the media can use to sew dissent and prop up a fascist

    unless the people are also going to talk about rhianan rudd and the alt rights role in manipulating young people

    Kemi Badenoch has said “peasants” from “sub-communities” in some countries are the ones in grooming and rape gangs

    What the actual fuck, welcome back to XIX century

    Is she referring to the communities of “first generation migrant” Nigerians?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kemi_Badenoch#Early_life_and_education

    Olukemi (later shortened to Kemi) Olufunto Adegoke was born on 2 January 1980 in Wimbledon, London.[11] Her mother had travelled from Nigeria to the UK to give birth in St Teresa’s private hospital before the British Nationality Act 1981 abolished automatic birthright citizenship for those born in the United Kingdom, and then returned to Nigeria shortly after Badenoch was born.[12][13][14] She is one of three children born to Nigerian Yoruba parents.

    She returned to the UK at the age of 16 to live with a friend of her mother’s owing to the deteriorating political and economic situation in Nigeria, which had affected her family.[21] During her parliamentary maiden speech Badenoch stated that she was “to all intents and purposes a first-generation immigrant”.[22]

    EDIT : Or by peasant does she mean people who had no running water or electricity?

    Badenoch has described her background as “middle-class” but said in 2018 “Being middle class in Nigeria still meant having no running water or electricity, sometimes taking your own chair to school” and claimed that her family went through “periods of poverty” due to inflation

    It’s totally not a problem fuelled by the ruling class, it’s those subhuman foreigners.

    People know that a sub-community is like a subset. A smaller part of the larger community. Not a lower class of people.

    Right?

      How it’s explained and how it’s intended don’t have to be the same. Although I don’t think badenoch is witty enough to have meant it both ways. She probably just wanted to say subhuman and substituted community and lucky for her it works.

        Honestly, I think people only want to hear the hateful version and aren’t interested in even considering that somebody is trying to broach a sensitive subject that needs to be discussed.

        How about we get past our preconceptions and try to work the problems out. No? Guess we all fucked then.

      I thought it was a sex thing about cutting and styling hair with maybe some clothing stuff.
