Michael Barker | counterpunch.org | 2019-11-29
The Tories strategy for 'hiding' their deep-rooted racism involves them perpetuating gratuitous acts of racism so regularly that they are effectively normalised. Nothing to report here apparently. Yet the corporate-owned, Tory-supporting media can't stop discussing Labour's alleged racism, which has them furiously salivating over Jeremy Corbyn's covert anti-Semitism. The main reason for this focus revolves…
