Damage limitation after the obscene scandal of Windrush, or genuine sympathy? Baroness Lawrence and Prime Minister Theresa May attend the memorial I'll go with the former! http://www.itv.com/news/2018-04-23/theresa-may-sets-out-annual-stephen-lawrence-day/
brilliant idea...so what's the plan we're all going to stand for a 3 minute silence with flags at half mast and solemn expressions on our faces...bollocks to that
Just exploring the lines of absurdity a bit further I assume that the next patronising announcement will be May and the local police chief installing a blue plaque on the garden wall shrine where that gippo buglar died the other week...
The Royals even got involved, Prince Harry and his wife to be/Meghan Markle came out to mark the occasion too... I think it's one of those things like 1776 when America declared Independence from us, I think Stephan Lawrence opened up our eyes as a country so things could change for the better; showing that the UK learns from its mistakes, like when the UK thanked America in 1876 and again in 1976 for a lesson of freedom; this day should show that the UK is learning too.
No he didn't he was stabbed...various commissions and reports exposed racism...bad policework...crap oversight...call it what you want but Lawrence was simply killed. fine remember it...don't tell me we need to patronise blacks by having a lawrence day...
