Disgusting display of Racism

[jpaul]

hadn't seen summary of Rafiq's upheld complaints

... This panel consisted of five members, three of whom were BAME representatives

Of the 43 complaints submitted by Rafiq, the report upheld seven complaints. These were:
Rafiq was not provided with halal food when playing junior cricket for Yorkshire.

• Before 2010, three separate incidents of racist language being used by former players were identified. These were determined to be harassment on the grounds of race.
• Before 2012, a former coach regularly used racist language.
• During his second tenure at Yorkshire (2016–2018), jokes made about religion which made "individuals uncomfortable about their religious practices."
• Between 2016 and 2018, a player made references to Rafiq's weight and fitness that amounted to bullying.
• In August 2018, when Azeem Rafiq raised concerns of racism there was a failure by the club to follow its own policy or investigate these allegations.
• On a number of occasions prior to 2018 the club could have done more to make Muslims more welcome within their stadiums and should have dealt better with complaints of racist or anti-social behaviour within those stadiums

so 3 racial events at similar time frame as his error, racial jokes in 2016-18, and 2 complaints that club hadn't acted, plus bullying,
I'd like to know more about the 2nd tenure complaints , to justify institutional racism claim

Meanwhile in his own country

Interesting to see him not actively complaining about these incidents.

He's English in the same way that Andy Townsend is Irish because he played football for Ireland.

Andy Townsend did not live, work, get education in Ireland. He played for them as he was too crap to play for England but had Irish heritage.

If I moved to Pakistan at age 10, I reckon I'd still be British lmao

He has a net wealth of $1-2m from.playing cricket in the UK which is institutionally racist, yet made him a millionaire.

His attempts to draw awareness to racism leading to multiple deaths and murders each year in the country he and his family were born in was zero.

 

[hood1971]

I did not bother with your straw man argument. He made complaints for racism within the yorkshire cricket club, which some were upheld. The club then chose to do nothing, saying racist language is just banter. He wanted action to be taken by the club, their refusal to do so has lead the current actions.

Are there worse things happening in the world? Yes. Should we ignore the fact that yorkshire cricket club thinks racism is banter? No. I find it odd that the 2 are conflated. Solving racism in the whole world might be a step to far for one man.

Are you just changing the legal definition of nationality to suit your agenda? The man's a Pakistani, living in England, whether you , he or anyone else likes it or not. It's just the way it is.

No, he's Pakistani. He was born in and raised in Pakistan.
If i spend the rest of my life in Brazil I don't suddenly become Brazilian.

 

[hood1971]

So if you become a British national then you are Pakistani? Legal definitions I can find of nationality does not include anything about country of birth.

You're conflating nationality with citizenship.

Like Cambridge dictionary -

the state of belonging to a particular country or being a citizen of a particular nation:

Nationality is a legal identification of a person in international law, establishing the person as a subject, a national, of a sovereign state.

LOL! Did you just make a wikipedia page up to try and use it as source?

 

[Fubsy]

He may even hold two passports and be a dual-national.

Doesn't look like he did as I was edited a month ago, but still a rather **** attempt.
