I cant help but think this is a bit of a knee jerk reaction that has been poorly thought through?

Ireland created a buy Irish campaign back in the 80s under the GI (Guaranteed Irish logo), its been a great success and is inclusive, if I want to buy something I have never gone out of my way to know the ownership or who is on the board of directors, I buy it if I need it not because the owner is a certain race

GUARANTEED IRISH As one of Ireland’s most enduring and recognisable symbols, Guaranteed Irish helps consumers identify products and services which are #AllTogetherBetter choices for Irish communities. We’re supported by 1,200+ homegrown and international #SuperBrands and businesses across Ireland.

As a mixed race person myself I can't help but find this sort of crap incredibly patronising.

Just being able to walk down the street without being persecuted for being black or gay would be a better way to live.

So what if we have a White pound day...what if we have White music awards?....wouldn’t be right would it?. If we all want to be treated the same let’s be one...that’s what we should be doing and aiming for.

White people have been supporting white businesses forever, and white music has been popular for the same amount of time, despite the fact that most of what is known as white music, is actually black music stolen. On top of that, now that Beethoven was actually black, then the white music awards would be a pretty short evening for most of the artists.

Well, considering "whites" are not minorities, no it wouldn't.

It allows Karens and their boyfriends appease their white saviour complex. No one believes in white supremacy more than woke middle class liberals.
