Cuts both ways

I CONGRATULATE those behind the recent ‘Anti-Racist Workplace Week’ for their poster campaign which cleverly juxtaposed the motto “It Cuts Both Ways” with the ID card of an Irish girl working in Bahrain.

For too long, we have had to endure the nonsense of anti-immigrant protesters without a whisper of the thousands of Irish happily plying their trade abroad. It is hypocritical beyond belief that there is so much dissent here about people wishing to work in our lowest paid jobs.

As those attempting to rid us of the poison that is racism contend, it really should cut both ways.
