Reply to comment by Heyheyheyone in Rishi Sunak will make history as the first person of color to be Britain’s prime minister. by Heyheyheyone
>A POC is a POC that's uplifting enough in my book.
Not according to your account history, which seems to revolve around hating immigrants living in HMOs near you and how much you want the city to raze their homes to the ground. Did their excess satellite dishes murder your parents, or something?
>I wonder when the Labour party is going to have its first ever female or ethnic minority leader
I guess when they go through three Prime Ministers who weren't elected by the people in a row, the third time will be the charm then, too

Eh? I did say HMOs are inefficient use of space, are poorly maintained, mostly look shit and should be rebuilt - didn't realise this has anything to do with immigrants until you tell me. What's your problem with immigrants?
Still wondering when the very progressive Labour MPs and party members are going to choose their first ever female or ethnic minority leader, let alone PMs.

Why are you more concerned with gender and ethnicity than the material conditions of the minorites you claim to care about? Please stop posting

That's gender and ethnic diversity for you. Never realised representation doesn't matter until now.

Of course representation matters. It matters in lots of ways and in lots of areas! But when you equate being progressive with happening to have a leader with minority characteristics you're making a mistake. Margaret Thatcher was the first woman prime minister. But she was a Tory and a bastard and her policies made peoples lives worse (including and especially minorities). Calling the Tory party of 1975-1990 progressive when they regressed the nation significantly would make no sense. The same is the case now.
