Lots of discussion recently about racism in Britain and racial profiling. Interesting article that describes it as a part of life for some!

You must admit the outrage can go too far!Marks have had to apologise for calling one of their bras tobacco! Ridiculous.

For anyone who is interested "The Talk" on Channel 4 is very interesting. I also found it upsetting, seeing the incredible impact.
