While we don't have public lynchings fortnightly
We get to pretend that there have been no real racial issues in the U.K. since William Wil.beforce. Not being as bad as the U.S. is such a tiny bar, ofc.

From the stats the racial disparity in policing seems pretty similar (with fewer guns). There is a difference in involvement in violent crime I think - but then definitions of violent crime aren’t the same.
I don’t know what the economic disparity is. I think it’s far, far greater in the US. Mean household wealth is x6 for whites.

BLM is very relevant here as racial injustice is very prevalent and more insidious in the UK.
While we don't have public lynchings fortnightly .The UK has a long history of black people dying in police custody and racial injustice .
