Labour would,maybe because a lot of bame people live amongst white people the virus unlike labour does not look at colour before killing someone.are labour saying more white people should die to balance the books.

Instead of this click bait headline do you think they may be want reasearch, not an investigation, into why it's disproportionate so going forward we can improve treatment, and prioritise who is vaccinated first when the vaccine is discovered?

Racist virus. Amazing Identity politics guys! London is a hot spot. Its BAME population is 44%. Comparing it to the national BAME population is just a very dumb measure.

Why? are we at this time of crissis, inventing another division in our community!

Good old Labour party Wankers Using deaths to score points

A racist virus..... i have heard it all now!

Asians, I’m one, have chronic diabetes , hypertension and cholesterol as a community. It’s due to life style including diet and genetics. No need for enquiry. Every diaspora group has this issue

Unfucking believable

Nothing to do with them not social distancing then.

The virus hits hardest in population centres. BAM are concentrated in population centres. There saved you about £200m on an enquiry provided by your buddies you can spend saving lives instead you spendthrift gits.

🤔 hand hygiene and social distancing have worked for those that chose to abide by it. COVID19 isn't racist. Nice try though.

So this is what we are going to get from the new Labour party. Seems like nothing has changed.

Not saying the virus is rascist I hope !!

Labour obviously very busy !!! F off tosseurs!

playing that card again

Any/all deaths, are sad!!!
