Children. Teens. Pregnant women. Victims of domestic violence. Anyone from an ethic minority. Care home residents. People with disabilities. The list of overlooked vulnerable groups goes on & on.
The lesson is to build processes that include them next time.
Not to airbrush away 250,000 Covid dead.

But the obvious lesson to learn is this.
When weighing how to act - & even if your group of Downing Street decision-makers is predominantly middle class white men - consider EVERYONE. Including the vulnerable. The voiceless. The overlooked. The people who don't look or sound like you.

Tolkien fought in the Battle of the Somme. He saw the horrors of war, and the moments of bravery and fear within it up close.
And after all that. ALL that. He wrote Lord of the Rings. He declared true bravery and masculinity to be love, friendship and humbleness.
Musk is everything he hated.

When you moan that ethnic minorities “won’t integrate” and then complain that TV adverts show integrated, mixed-race families, you’re not defending British culture — you’re just proving Schrödinger’s racism: minorities are wrong whether they fit in or not.
