The thread title should be changed immediately

There I'd NO EVIDENCE that racism is 'on the rise' due to the result

You may as well attribute it to Natalie's exit on BB

No evidence of a rise

No evidence that random incidents are because of the result


All we have are incidents

And hysterical hyperbole

There is evidence of a rise, the House of Commons have discussed it, there's a whole album of screenshots and photos of it. Do on deny there is a rise in racism, we shouldn't just shrug this off, to do so is dangerous. Both the leave and remain side are disgusted by the rise of racial abuse, this isn't the fault of either side, but we must accept its a problem.

There is No Evidence of a rise

What parameters are you measuring it agains t precisely?


There have been un connected incidents


Please post evidence of a rise showing a rise against actual data

Please post evidence that incidents are a direct result of the referendum

is it just another "coincidence" like the drop in the economy? Totally unrelated nothing to do with Brexit .

Corellation is perfectly acceptable as evidence, especially when the statement isn't concrete. The thread title doesn't say "Racism on the rise BECAUSE OF referendum", just "following", which leaves people free to draw their own conclusions... whether that be the obvius conclusion that it is related, or the head-in-the-sand fantasy conclusion that it has nothing to do with it and is related to something else like cat pheromones or maybe moon phases.

It reminds me of of the general "is on the rise" statements by people when really what they mean is that you can now get news media 24 hours, in your pocket, on 5 devises at home etc when 20 years ago you got the news at 6 and 9 on 2 channels

same with "freak weather"
