Interesting read.....good to see others impressions.
Not knowing much about the laws covering such in England, I won't say much.
Apparently "sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me" does not apply.
Everywhere.....people are tired of the constant PC requirement. Think I would call it free speech if it happened stateside.
Multiculturalism is a nice idea......that doesn't appear to be workin.
What sometimes passes for discussion on Literotica could be prosecuted in the UK.
The UK Police generally take a lenient view of racial abuse unless the action is in public, obvious and intended to grossly offend. If her rant hadn't been posted on YouTube it would probably have been ignored.
There have been several responses in the UK suggesting that Emma West is woefully ignorant of England's long history as a nation of immigrants. She is presumably unaware of the Polish pilots who were major players in the Battle of Britain, nor that people, of all colours and religions, from the Commonwealth and Empire fought for Britain in both World Wars.
The laws against inciting racial hatred have been used against extreme Muslim preachers, if complaints have been made. Someone has to be offended by the incitment. Many people can't be bothered to report the likes of Emma West, nor intolerant people of any race or religion.
