I wonder how likely it would be for the commissioned investigation (by whom?) into

Alleged racism in cricket Scotland came back and said... "nah not seeing it".

Got no dog in this particular fight one way or another but I can't help feeling that the outcome is somewhat predetermined, and what exactly the ubiquitous phrase "institionally racist" really means.

Tom reckons the whole world and country is institutionally racist. Every person has predjucices. It's just that the woke are reluctant to admit them. That looney family are totally accepting of all races, religions and creeds until the council want to open a new camp for travellers in the field next door.

Basically that means everyone is racist apart from non racists because non racists are reluctant to admit to being racist.

Using that logic Tom has admitted to being racist.

Isn't that one of the biggest issues? Understanding and being aware of our own prejudices? Then we can learn from them and develop through our lives. Anyone who claims to be a prejudice free zone is a rarity indeed. Either that or just not very self aware.

He uses the word prejudice but was alluding to racism which he has confirmed. I can 100% say I am not racist.

Impossible to judge or form an opinion without any of the substance or detail behind the headline. Society continues to be racist and lots of other prejudices. It's no surprise that organisations made up of and within that society exhibit some of those prejudices. If it was an easy answer it would have all been fixed now. Clearly it isn't and hasn't. But I'd hope continued and repeated education improves the journey for those effected.
