On the Bedford to three bridges train & this group of guys starting on anyone (including a woman in her 70s), racist slurs, throwing punches. As soon as he sees me filming he threatens me
I get the train everyday, easily the most horrendous journey & experience I’ve had

have seen multiple tweets from this guy about me. It’s giving ~obsessed~
The BBC is not real life, despite all its hubris & peacock preening. To damn a man on the basis of 9 seconds, of probably out of context video, is not journalism, it's a witch hunt.
He says to @marymandefield, “this is England not a f*cking foreign country you f*cking lot”. I do not see this as a racist comment per se.
This is England & not a foreign country.
The man is also accused of misogyny, not there is any evidence of that in the quote, I assume these are the go-to tired cliches of the woke. Cliches that reminds us it's like a drunk using a lamppost, not for illumination, but for support.
The woke & POC have used the cry of racism to neutralise all criticism of themselves, whether just or unjust.
The man maybe a racist & misogynist, but he maybe an entirely innocent man provoked by bullet proof race activists, aided & abetted by self-hating, by implication racist, white self haters. The latter should maintain their bigotries of low expectations.
The culture wars are nasty, you have made it more vile.

People can say racism isn’t a big thing anymore, but you wait until you’re being stared down by a racist shouting slurs at you (and every person of colour) when they have that eyes glazed over look and you know they could knock you out if they wanted to. 😣

NME, the guardian and the independent have all failed to even mention Mel in their write ups.
Have you no shame?
I’m really enjoying British newsrooms poorly trying to figure out what Mel Made Me Do It means with no idea who Mel is and what she made anyone do.
Hire more black writers then 🤷🏾♀️

There’s something about doing radio where if you’re in it, you know how much time, energy & unpaid work goes into getting your foot in the door. If you do it, it’s because you love it

Each to their own! If she knows she doesn’t enjoy the process of making & keeping up friendships then why do it? I don’t think she said it in a way that encourages others to do the same, she was just stating a preference. They said how most guests on the podcast are the same
