Both Sky and the production company should be donating a *lot* of money to places like @theracebeat and @RedPeppermag who are trying to beat the stranglehold of racism on the British press, after this sorry debacle. This doesn’t go away.

Having been a tv producer, I can imagine the situation where an entire, nice, middle class production team has literally no idea what his tattoos mean and so believe what he says.

This whole trend of "everyone attacks the left for saying something fairly obvious, the left is categorically proven correct, everyone else just never apologises and never learns" is so exhausting

Sometimes Dawn, I wonder whether 'the public' give a flying wotsit tbh. Also it does, I suppose, depend whether u r versed in the lexicon of tattoo &/or modern political symbolism. I wasn't at all. An unnecessary error to make by the casting team, allbeit innocently.

Our public literally had their grand parents involved in a World War over this so they really should give a flying wotsit.
