The Labour Party is charging white people extra to attend a Jeremy Corbyn rally in Loughborough, Leicestershire, on February 17th. Labour activists and supporters attending the rally will be charged £40 if they are white and £30 if they are non-white, reports the Mail on Sunday.
“The basic price of a conference pass is the same for all members but, at the request of our East Midlands Regional Board, the party will subsidise part of the cost of this year’s conference pass for BAME [Black and Minority Ethnic] members to encourage attendance and improve representation,” explained a Labour spokesman.
Of course, this really means that the basic price of a conference pass is not the same for all members, with white people being singled out to pay more than any other ethnic group.
“This is racism. In effect, Labour is levying a tax on the basis of the colour of a person’s skin. It shows their contempt for the white working class,” responded Andrew Bridgen, the Member of Parliament for North-West Leicestershire.
The Tory pointed out the “insanity” of charging a poor white Labour activist more for a ticket than Leicester East MP Keith Vaz, a rich ex-lawyer born in the Middle East.
“In Corbyn’s Orwellian parallel universe we are all equal, but some are more equal than others,” Bridgen added.
The move comes shortly after Corbyn’s Shadow Education Secretary Angela Rayner conceded that statistics show that white working-class people, and white working-class boys in particular, are in many respects at the “bottom of the heap” in British society, with worse life outcomes than any other demographic.

Expect special tax rates for White people in the future.
England no longer belongs to the English.
And here I thought the anti white sentiment was only here.
Remember the collegw bake sales with different cookie prices for different races? It was viewed as racially divisive and insulting. Now, we see it was prophetic.
By the way, who would pay good money to go to a political rally, anyway?
Any White, Christian or Jewish person who supports Labour under this gentleman is either ignorant or insane. And this goes especially for anyone who lives England and/or UK. The place is being sold out - and rotted out from within- largely by the current communistic Labour Party leadership
It’s global.
The Brits don’t place much value in whites.
The Brits have been overrun with Muslims and are finished
as a country.
they don’t even have the segregation excuse USA has!
What if they self identify as non-white?

That’s pretty much the case for college financial aid today - which has the exclusive effect of pricing college higher for people with ‘greater means’ (i.e., white people). No different than having to show your 1040 form before being told what YOU will have to pay if you want that new car.
He should charge even more: “A fool and his money are soon parted”!
How many black folks we got that are all most white....ummm, umm...where you gonna draw the line?

Yep conquered without one shot fired. Well some explosions but you know what I mean.

Actually, our federal tax system up to Trump’s plan and states like California and Oregon have had special tax rates for whites who work for a living.
Special tax rates = Higher taxes for working white folks.
The cost of staying away is still free. :-)

It has been that way for over 3 decades in Californicator land.
Over 3 decades ago our oldest child had been accepted to college, and my wife and I went to a workshop on financials for parents of new college students.
As we were walking down the aisles to be seated for the second session, a group of women we knew were stomping out.
One, who could embarrass sailors with her language, told us not to waste our F ing time. If we didn’t have a line of credit to get one.
So before we sat down, I asked the moderator if we had basically the same yearly income and similar home with both of us working as the ladies walking out, could he help us?
He said no and that a line of credit was our finance option.
We said thank you and turned and left. We were followed by several other evil white families where both husband and wife worked and had a nice home.
Any white people dumb enough to attend a Labour Party rally deserve to pay more. :)
Sounds very typical. One difference now is that the ‘top schools’ have eliminated all merit-based scholarships - which is something that happened in the past 5 years.
So, at this point, college is simply priced on (their assessment of) the ability of parents to pay. I’m convinced that doing this (prying into the resources and income of customers for the purpose of pricing) is not legal...but it’s such a fixture of society, no one’s about to challenge it.
A couple of years ago I was pushing for a raise at work; I’ve stopped since my children started reaching college age (instead just reducing my hours to the bare minimum). While they have good grades and scores, I don’t doubt they’d get less in scholarships if we had a higher income (we’ve been told as much; we have to re-submit financial info each year even though they were awarded full scholarships). I’ve never received public assistance, and I don’t view merit scholarships as such, but without them these kids wouldn’t be in college here in NJ. We have out-of-state colleges advertise on billboards here how NJ students can attend college in their states (as out-of-state students!) for less than they’ll pay in most NJ schools...
