Poor anyone who's not only disadvantaged, but also gets denied financial help due to their ethnicity. Racism isn't nice no matter who's on the receiving end.

They're not being denied funding.

Rejecting a "whites only" bursary from one donor =/= blocking funding for white kids. They have plenty of support.

It's so far from racism. Your use of the word is out of touch and ignorant.

How do they have plenty of support when there a numerous BAME only scholarships but very few available to white pupils? How is rejecting one for white kids not racism?

You said they are being denied support. That is false.

How is rejecting a whites only policy not racism? Well, because "whites only" as a policy is inherently racist.

One supporting ethnic minorities is not comparable.

It would be like asking why any support for the working class is not matched and equal with support for the middle class. Because they are not the same.

Working class white and BAME kids are the same though. Neither inherently has an advantage over the other in society.

Just because you want something to be true doesn't make it so.
