The only connection with racism is in your tiny lefty luvvie brain. Obsessed with it, it's all you've got to cry about. | | | |

It is pathetic that many people including some on this board seem to think it is racist to point out that both cities have a large immigrant population (India and Pakistan respectively) and that this is probably a contributory cause, though whether that is economic, social, cultural or sociological or a mix of several reasons could be dicussed productively but for this useless enforced censorship. But everybody is so terrified to discuss problems openly and objectively that we have to shuffle our feet and mumble some inane platitudes. There is probable causation and it will benefit everyone, not least the residents of those two cities - to understand what the problem is. There - is this racist enough for you? | | | |

I’m not sure it’s a race issue. What is the issue here is that the areas mentioned have a large amount of what most Brits would describe as squats or doss houses. East London had the most covid and is full of places whether Asians or Eastern European’s piles high in terraced housing. Many people can’t even afford a bit of floor in a house but live in sheds. They don’t have proper sanitation or cooking facilities. That is a recipe for infection to spread everywhere. If you throw in language and cultural barriers it makes things even worse. | |

So is it racist now to state the obvious correlation between Leicester Bradford Rotherham Barnsley Bedfordshire Currently being the 5 most infected areas in the UK? | |

Have you looked at the Leicester data? It suggests that BAME isn’t a factor as the outbreak there shows roughly the same percentages as the population, i.e. c.50% of cases being white British and other ethnic minorities making up the rest. It’s much likely the areas mentioned are just poor and have lower health outcomes. One reason being housing and another where people shop. | |

If this is true then Portsmouth should be up there? The most densely populated working class city in the country as the locals like to proudly claim on tv? | |

No Boris. While you're recycling your overnight nappies, you will find me taking in the sunrise in the bracing waters of Lyme Bay, thinking about world peace and cultural diversity. | |

All on or very close to the M1... ...and the route taken by Dominic Cummings on his infamous trip north. When the true story of this pandemic is told, the hapless Cummings will be surely be revealed as the super-spreader responsible for these mini outbreaks. Wetherby, Ripon, Darlington watch out... |
To be fair to him, Boris, Ian has come back with quite a witty retort there. No? | |
