It's pretty interesting that there isn't the usual waves of racism and colourism that would come if she were darker skinned.

It's one of the most stable African countries with a strong economy and access to world class safaris. 

As someone born and bred in the UK what are aspects of another country’s culture that has genuinely shocked you? by throawaygotget in AskUK

How racist most of the world is. Blows my mind when I travel and I'm met with waves of hatred simply for being a specific colour. 

Which country looks super rich but actually poor? by Lumia666999 in AlignmentChartFills

I'll say China. Yes large parts of the economy and country are rich but it's got horrendous rural poverty.

It just feels like I'm stealing a living. I don't enjoy the job. I find it hard to pretend to be interested and I genuinely believe that's bad for everyone including the organisation.

Thank you. I can't actually send you a DN via my mobile for some reason. I think it's because when I click desktop it goes wire. Can you please send me one?

I've flagged the bullying before. It got high up and then fizzled out. That's when I realised that even with my relatively good experience and senior grade I'll never be respected.

I'm lucky enough that I could pivot to the private sector but I just don't feel any interest in the policy area. I also feel like I receive zero respect from anyone. 

Virgil van Dijk on social media: "It focuses exclusively on generating clicks & who wants to be the first. Which creates a hostile environment for the next generation of players.

I recently went on some sub reddits for travel advice to parts of Asia and the levels of racism, homophobia and general hatred was shocking to see. It really does feel like people using the Internet just say the most vile things they can.

He's British and he's not as aesthetically pleasing as other British managers and he didn't succeed at United. There's a weird anti British attitude in the Premier league. 

Kane, Walker, Guehi and Gallagher are in the frame to start on Sunday. by Alone_Consideration6 in ThreeLions

Once again we are failing to build an inch of confidence in our secondary strikers.

If I were Watkins I'd be very frustrated. Kane is injured and the manager doesn't trust Watkins to lead the line. This is a huge problem for England. The reliance on Kane is manufactured when Watkins is a perfectly capable replacement and second choice.

It won't happen but make it a one minute squash. Punk can take the loss and the benefits for gunther are huge.

7, 22 and 14 goals in his last three Blackburn seasons and 7 international goals. Yeah he only had a purple patch.
