I am not a cricket fan. Wasn't there a problem in the IPL a few years ago that Indian and Pakistani cricketers were giving abuse to black players in the dressing room ? I remember a couple of articles being printed in the newspapers but the story was forgotten.
I still don't go why the media fail to mention black on black crime - I thought the media were behind BLM ? |

It just empathises how treating any person, in a different way to another individual, has become unacceptable.
Similarly the world has now just realised that Artic icebergs melting were indicative of future problems for our climate. |

This is the biggest non-story ever. Some cricketers used "racist" terms in banter with their colleagues, for which they did not object at the time. I'm sure that this wasn't very nice for them, but no one was beaten up, or injured because of their race. It should be investigated, but it is not the crime of the century. Only a couple of decades ago, you had to be born in Yorkshire to play for Yorkshire cc. There are people been killed and knifed every day in London, this is just about people not using the "correct" language with their colleagues. This should not be the lead story. |
