After the latest turn in the Azeem Rafiq/Yorkshire saga, beware those who would like this conversation to be closed down, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

in 2009 is further evidence that there is nothing to see here. If, in the coming days, some player is found to have had a passion for monkey chants or white hoods, then I think we could safely say there is absolutely no point discussing the subject of racism in cricket and beyond for one second more. If “they’re all at it”, then we don’t have a problem with “it” at all.

Hypocrite!

'One racism cancels out the other racism, right? One racism each, so all's fair? We should just forget about it, shouldn't we?'

Alex Hales pictured in blackface as English cricket's racism crisis deepensECB confirms it is investigating what Hales claims was a fancy-dress tribute to the US rapper Tupac Shakur at a 2009 party The ecb are a joke For gods sake! So bloody what?! At some stage a ‘time limit’ needs to be placed in these accusations: fortunately the world has changed this behaviour is not acceptable and would not be tolerated today, but going back over 10 years helps no one.

‘It’s not about cricket’: Rafiq testimony resonates with Yorkshire’s Asian communityThe player’s testimony has led some to consider why good people say nothing about bigotry and abuse Very sloppy use of the word 'Asian' from the Guardian, as usual. Everyone knows it is Pakistani Muslims who are THE 'breed apart' all over England. Their religio-culture is patently incompatible with English culture and there is no prospect of this changing.
