I don't know how many of you have seen the poster in which an elderly and very serene Indian lady wearing a sari is sitting on one end of a seesaw facing a scary looking, snarling skinhead posed in an aggressive finger jabbing stance. Could the implication be that Brexiteers are white racists . There is a supposition from some on the remain side that anyone wishing to leave must be white, which is contrary to some of the televised debates I have seen where black and Asian voters have voiced their voting intentions and they do not always lie with the remain campaign. I watched the opening of QT last night and the black lady on the panel made it clear that she was a Brexiteer. The implied message on the poster seems to be therefore that black people should vote to remain, if not, they could be aligning themselves with a bunch of nasty white racists. Personally I haven't seen anyone dressed in that skinhead style circa 1970s and 1980s for a long while. However, maybe I'm looking it from the wrong point of view possibly the message is more ambiguous, given that the nasty racist skinhead is far more prolific in Eastern Europe, could the poster be trying to imply "vote in" and we will be bedfellows with a rising tide of right wing nationalism which is the subject of another thread on GN. Anyone have an opinion on this poster?
