Diane sounded angry in her October 7 talking point in the Hackney Gazette: "Recently much rubbish has been banded around about how black children do not concentrate at school which is why they do not succeed. I could not disagree more... We start a dangerous narrative if we continue to peddle such nonsense..." (like this?) I couldn't find the recent 'rubbish' that she was objecting to... anyone know what it was?

I'm guessing the recent issue of Prospect which included Tony Sewell trotting out his usual narrative. Also the deputy head in South London who was on Radio 4 today and spoke at the Conservative conference. When a Black person says racism is exaggerated they can get a lot of media attention...
