Leave it to the Brits to always be ahead of the curve and set trends for the world.

Leave it to the Brits to always be ahead of the curve and set trends for the world.

You're overdoing a bit on this, I guess!

There's no trend that could be beneficial for the world to be set by the Brits, as most of the ills that the world has been suffering to date have their roots in Brits and their malicious politics of double standards.

The acclaimed playwright and author, Alan Bennett, once said, "To be English is to be a hypocrite, I am English, I am a hypocrite.", adding, "England excels at one thing - hypocrisy!"

In addition, when it comes to protesting, Britain would be the last on the list of countries where people protest. Protesting is not part of the British culture at all, even in private. Apart from small groups of people protesting for animal rights or environment around the parliament, it's extremely rare to see people protesting in mass in Britain. Protesting is not known with Brits, hypocrisy is indeed!

Just a thought!

Leave it to the Brits to always be ahead of the curve and set trends for the world.

Don't be fooled by the fuss about the murder of this woman. They're making this simply because she's white! Although the suspect of this crime is a police officer, he didn't commit this while on duty! Whereas there were a few cases in which police officers on duty (and in their frigging uniforms) committed serious crimes against blacks, but despite the availability of sufficient evidences, the police intentionally failed to prosecute the culprits and take them to court.

The police, the justice system, and the media in Britain are institutionally racist, and double standard and bias are their unofficial code of conduct.

For instance, a report commissioned by the then Blair government found the police institutionally racist! That was 20 years ago!

But guess what - the then Metropolitan police commissioner, Sir Ian Blair, passed on the ball hitting out at newspapers accusing the media of institutional racism!

Ten years later, the then head of the Metropolitan police's anti-racism unit was saying that, "she believed the Met was still "institutionally racist", saying that, "there is not an institution out there that could say, 'We are not racist'."!

Twenty years later, when Grenfell Tower went up in flames, the 72 deaths were “a product of institutional racism”. At least 34 victims were nationals of African (among them a few Ethiopians), Middle Eastern or Asian countries.

Don't be fooled by the hypocrisy of the Brits! And most of all, be assured there are no sane trends to be set for the world by the Brits!
