Lawrence Fox thinks racism to white people is possible. 

 

When he was on Question Time a woman in the audience said Megan Markle experienced racism living in this country. Lawrence said to the lady in the audience, rubbish we are one of the most tolerant counties in Europe.  If I remember right the lady then  called Lawrence a white privileged male.  Lawrence said to the lady, your being racist calling me a white privileged male.

Sorry but poor grammar is one of MANY things that really winds me up! Your equals you're.

White folk need to man up if they believe they are subject to racism. 

I agree, that’s the whole point, white people are fair game for any level of hostility and abuse, simply because they are white; and historically some other, unrelated, white people did bad things.

 

Is that the gist of your argument?

Not got a gist. I am a white person and have never been discriminated against because of the colour of my skin.  I acknowledged some white folk in our country may have not obtained jobs they applied for due to positive discrimination being adopted in the recruitment process.
