Do you imagine that the takeaways are still pie and mash shops run by people born within the sound of Bow Bells? Maybe whelk stalls run by the Pearly King and Queen?

Being non-white and speaking another language doesn't make you a foreigner.
You sure?

Apologies. I should have said "Being non-white and speaking another language doesn't necessarily make you a foreigner."

Is it actually a story ?
There was a thing on the radio about it affecting overweight people the most, the presenter was banging on about 37% of those dying were overweight - shock horror, until you learn 33% of the population are overweight - so basically its a none story.
So to bame, may be there is a hell of a lot more of them than the stats show , no one knows how many people are in the UK, borders have been an open gate for decades, and then combine that with where most of the deaths are occurring and just may be the 34% figure is an equitable share ? According to wikipedia 40% of London is non white, so may be in London covid is disproportionally affecting white folk?

I don't think this virus if racist or fattist, I don't think anyone has any idea what is going on anymore and are now making stories up for click bait.

OK. So you're not talking about foreigners, because the people you mention could be born and bred in this country.

A person can be born here but brought up in a way entirely foreign to our ways, and taught to despise us, our culture and our history.
A dog born in a stable is not a horse.
