I moved from Scotland to Birmingham, England 35 years ago
according to government statistics, the area I live in is 50% white, 50% non-white – my partner’s area is 20% white, 80% non-white – and that white population includes significant numbers of Irish, Scots, Poles, and Romanians
I love the racial, religious, cultural diversity of where I live and my hindu, sikh, and muslim friends and neighbours so I’m with local MP Jess Phillips when she said it is a ‘total pleasure’ to live in an area with high numbers of immigrants

The Trump Snake and the GOP Frogs, a modern Aesop fable
Remember the one about the scorpion and the frog…?
The Trump Snake and the GOP Frogs
A snake named Trump meets a whole cadre of Republican frogs at the tail end of a scary liberal administration. The snake says, “I’ll do literally anything to have the last word in a fight, no matter how crazy, put me on your throne.” The frogs say, “How do we know you’re REALLY one of us?” The snake says, “Because we’re both in the same tax bracket.”
The frogs get on his back and they set out to destroy everything in their path but in mid-slither, the frogs realize the snake is sliding off a cliff to both their dooms. On the way down, the frogs ask “Why?”
Trumps says, “Because I’ll do literally anything to have the last word in a fight.”
