He condemns Alibhai-Brown for hypocrisy as she calls herself a writer of the left but rejects chav’s because of their collective racism.
Why is it down to the victims of white working-class’s misdirected anger to understand and allow that behaviour? It isn’t “liberal bigotry” but rather an understandable reaction to years and years of racist riots, exclusion and oppression.
