If Englishness is now a hereditary members’ club, it is quite something to appoint yourself gatekeeper without the qualifying genetics. It’s giving male gynaecologist energy.
Let’s take this argument to its logical extreme. A woman with no English ancestry whatsoever feels entitled to police Englishness and lecture a man of English descent on what is and isn’t English.
Fine. I’ll play English ancestral privilege game that some on the right seem to believe should exist. Like @SirSimonClarke, through my maternal lineage, I am biologically English. @SuellaBraverman is not.
By her own narrow, blood and soil definition of Englishness, and her rejection of the live and let live culture that has developed on these islands over centuries, she might pause before dictating to those who descend from the indigenous people here.

Thank you for your apology. But English is not the same as British. Just as Scottish and Welsh are different to English- identities determined by background. And it’s not semantics. I’m not ethnically English; I’m ethnically Asian. And my nationality is British. Equally if you or I were born in China, we could never be ethnically Chinese. It’s this casual, anything-goes approach to culture and identity that has led our country to this confused and fractured situation today (a consequence of the orthodoxy of multiculturalism that has prevailed for decades). And the vague invocation of ‘British values’ has become meaningless because of this casual approach. We need a much more muscular reassertion of British culture, patriotism and heritage if we are to fix all the problems that the indulgence in multiculturalism has caused.

It is funny how unless you are appealing to white working class men, all other identity based politics is “sectarian” or “woke”. I detest all of it.
But don’t single out South Asian men in a negative way and white working class men in a positive way and behave like you are doing two different things.
It is all identity politics and I am against it.

An impressive result for @reformparty_uk today. We more than doubled our vote and beat Labour in their own backyard. Huge credit to @GoodwinMJ and the thousands of volunteers. The wider campaign, however, should be a wake up call. South Asian men instructing women how to vote at polling stations in modern Britain. The winning party campaigning under a foreign flag and in foreign languages to exploit a foreign conflict. Depresssingly I can only see this appalling level of sectarianism spreading because most of our political class are in denial. Britain is broken. But it can be set on a better course. That’s why everyone who shares these concerns needs to get behind Reform and ensure the fight back can begin.

"If the right is serious about confronting extremism within its own ranks, it must do so plainly, without euphemism, and without pretending this is merely a stylistic error rather than a profound moral failure."
The problem with the term "woke right" for our Substack.

Well-said @EquianoProject : "Racism is not wrong because it is unfashionable or politically inconvenient. It is wrong because it denies the equal moral worth of human beings; because it treats people as categories rather than persons; and, for those operating within a religious or moral tradition, because it denies the idea that all people are made in the image of God." theequianoproject.substack.com/p/the-problem-…

Those who've followed my work know I've spent a lot of time and energy confronting and critiquing the racialist and neo-eugenic trends on the Right.
But we can't have an asymmetric model of anti-racialism, whereby figures on the Left can call for "impoverish[ing] the white middle class"---and still get jobs in mayoral administrations.
Opposition to race obsession has to be symmetrical and mutual, otherwise it's fraudulent.

Equiano project director Inaya Folarin Iman criticises the Church of England's move to pay reparations for slavery on ITV's Good Morning Britain.
Good Morning Britain@GMB
'Do you have any concern that this money will be going towards plugging a feeling of guilt, but without having a real impact on today's issues?' Professor Kehinde Andrews and Inaya Folarin Iman debate after a group of conservatives urge the new Archbishop of Canterbury to block the Church of England from spending £100m on slavery reparations. They say the funds should be spent on strengthening struggling parishes, not on what they call high-profile and legally dubious vanity projects.

Equiano Project director discussed religious and ethnic demographic change on Moral Maze. She argued for the need to recognise and address the cultural anxiety and identity dislocation that comes along with this whilst also condemning racism unequivocally.

You need to read this. Distressing, moving and important in equal measure
I have @Dannythefink's back - and anyone else whose Britishness is questioned by the extremists on here because of their faith or the colour of their skin

Really good discussion on immigration, ethnicity, social cohesion etc with @PaulEmbery @epkaufm @LukeTryl and chaired by @InayaFolarin
youtu.be/zjKbdWAtCGw?si…
Somewhat heartening to hear lots of points of agreement and, generally, a decent centrist position emerging around slowing down immigration, recognising the concerns of the white working class, and calling out overt racism.
Also a healthy insistence from the audience that we continue open conversations about all these issues.
