Thank you for speaking on this Mister Gregory Hodge and team.
i am confused. I was born with a skin colour that I had no say in. Maybe you guys should listen to old farts like me, 61yrs, before spouting off your theories. We Irish were always treated badly throughout the centuries. We survive because of our humour. As a gypsy I welcome you into your conversation. As a real person, with real experiences, I invite you into my life. My father, an Intellect, always warned me to avoid those who never left school! They know nothing of real life! I really want to jump onto this victim ladder. Please help! How many points do I get for being a single dad of 3? Do I get points for surviving without government money, Ever? My grandfather was a Gypsy in Ireland; surely I can claim some points for that? I saved someone's life once. She was white but surely I'll get some points? I suppose I will lose all of those points because I spent 25yrs as a police officer helping my local community in Belfast. Blown up twice, shot once and I still don't see myself as a victim.
