The headteacher of a London school at the centre of a discrimination row has caved in and agreed to take down the Union Jack, amend 'racist' uniform rules and review the curriculum after pupils staged a mass protest. Pimlico Academy has been at the centre of a mutiny by students and teachers alike this week after uniform rules were announced forbidding colourful hijabs and hairstyles that 'block people's view' - policies which critics claimed would penalise Muslims and people with Afro hairstyles at the school, where three quarters of children are from ethnic minorities. Hundreds of pupils and parents had assembled outside the school yesterday morning with some holding Black Lives Matter banners and chanting 'we want change'. The British flag had been removed and burnt by pupils in September before it was put back up. The school's headmaster Daniel Smith (inset) has now acquiesced to some of the pupils' demands and even praised the protesters, saying the flag will come down 'pending a review'.

Morning mate.
Rwanda or tribal conflict, civil war, ethnic and religious violence in Africa is all white Europran inspired divide and conquer?
No responsibility taken by Africans and tens of millions so easily led?
Not saying this is unthinkable, but when will Africans take charge of their own destiny and create stable peaceful fair societies?
China is now all over the place in Africa, as are Islamist oppressors.
..
Dirty Britain.
With the good weather of late, we go to parks and beaches this week and some leave all their rubbish behind...4 tons in one Sheffield park.
Take your own litter home, tramps.
At a vigil for a knife victim in Croydon, a man was stabbed to death and two others injured.
The two guys hurt then attacked NHS staff and police too.
What a world.

You and I remember the NF, peks, chanting there's no black in the union Jack as a racist slur.
Black and muslim now put slogans up in Pimlico, ain't no black in the union Jack after they burnt one flag and try to remove replacements.
The head is being called racist for teaching British history on " white kings and queens" and apparently it is white lessons for brown people and black and muslim pupils want BLM lessons?
How do the white pupils feel as a 25 minority in Pimlico or Batley today, labelled racist and colonizers by classmates and BLM....massive damage is being done to young minds, brainwashed by BLM and Islamists in our schools and society.

Morning all,
Off topic but was wondering if anyone has been watching the Chauvin trial? Really grim stuff.
Not just the act itself but the police's actions throughout. Refusing to grant Floyd emergency medical treatment when it was apparent to anyone viewing he in significant distress (struggling to breath) for example.
Chauvin's bodycam footage (as well as all of the mobile phone footage) should (in normal circumstances) be enough to convict on second degree murder.
But a number of legal experts covering the trial have stated it would be extraordinary for a US police officer to face criminal charges for misconduct. And that video evidence has in the past been overlooked.

Binary isn't exactly an accusation man
Both Africa can be responsible for its present/future and colonial nations can acknowledge the damage we did in the past and how that has affected the present
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Point taken and I concur.
If course we messed up badly in Africa, with France, Belgium, the Dutch, Germans too dabbling at times, or Portugal and Spain in South central America.
That should be taught and Is...however, a few seem to blame all African, Middle East and IndiannPakistan problems on white men, when as you say, that is only part of the Story.
Black and muslim kids should be taught all if the truth and not just British history from a white perspective of BLM type propaganda where no responsibility is taken by people in Africa or Middle East for their plight.
Religious, ethnic, sectarian, tribal conflicts, dictatorships, corruption, famine, disease, Child brides, FGM, in Africa and Middle East and Pakistan, Afghanistan are not all the fault of whitey, ffs...but we did play a part.
Black and muslim pupils need to know black history, Black v Asian racism, muslim extremism, ottoman empire, muslim invasions and genocide, Africans and Arab slave trade, how girls and women are treated.
It might not be an easy class to take.

True but if going by witness testimony and video footage there can only be one verdict. The lesser charge of manslaughter may be a likely outcome but I can't see any scenario where Chauvin walks.

To stop Africans from uniting and rebelling, Europeans emphasized their differences, made them compete for resources and opportunities, used gifts, favours and military support to keep them in discord. Divide and rule worked like a charm and all warring tribes today can trace the origin of that war back to colonial masters. Resources are limited and fights are inevitable.
