Not in and of itself. A hate incident for example is not considered a criminal act. If I were to be verbally abusive and use race as part of that, then it becomes a hate crime.
In any case, wether it is illegal or not, is Tony Clubb on trial? If not, then this whole "innocent until proven guilty" thing doesn't apply to me or you. It applies to prosecution and the courts.

Well he will effectively be on trial with the RFL (who make the laws that he needs to abide by) who in order to ban him will have to prove he is guilty of the alleged accusation. So until they are able to do that he is...erm.....what's the word again...........

And the RFL will follow due process. Have the RFL banned him without evidence? Have the crown prosecuted him without evidence? No they haven't so you can all stop with the "whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty" because that only applies to the process, whatever that may be, not not to people on forums or social media.

| Next time we play Warrington or Saints and i hear 'You Warrington/St Helens Baaastards' i will report it to a steward for racism as calling somebody names because of where they are from is now deemed as racist allegedly. It seems that if your skin colour isn't white then you can cite racism for anything these days and the media hop all over it. Some people need educating on what racism really is because the world has gone pathetically soft. Being forced to apologize for things that happened 200 years ago etc. Frig off and grow some balls. Jesus, some folk would have heart attacks if they heard the kind of stuff we called each other at work. Its called banter, some folk should try it, either that or wear a t-shirt that says 'i am offended by everything' so normal folk can automatically ignore you from the off.

Someone said that the law of the country is "innocent until proven guilty". Well that only applies to the law, not to people like me and you. I can take the view that he is guilty regardless of what the law says. Likewise, I can also take the view that he is not guilty even if he is deemed so by the law.

Non white people do not need white people telling them what is offensive and what isn't.
As for the "forced apologies" for actions done 200 years ago, what actions do you mean? Colonisation, Slavery?
I would say an apology is getting off lightly. When a country still benefits from those actions centuries ago and the ones who suffered are still suffering centuries later I would say damn right there should be an apology. An apology isn't saying people today are to blame but what it should mean is those that did take part in such things are no longer revered or celebrated.
Repirations would be the correct action nevermind an apology.

Yet you are outraged by other’s opinions, do you need a t shirt?

As a descendant of Catholic Irish immigrants, forced to leave their homes due to the potatoe famine, can I put a claim in for reparations too? The effects of that mass immigration into Liverpool still impacts the area today.
