An actor who’s name I won’t use is triggered seeing a Sikh soldier in 1917. The people triggered by my Sikh dad refused to employ him, attacked him and threw bricks through our windows. If you give racist views airtime be prepared to take responsibility for the consequences.

It’s an undeniable truth that people who can’t work from home are overwhelmingly our poorest and lowest paid, they’re more likely to depend on public transport and live in densely populated areas and are disproportionately more likely to be BAME - and therefore at highest risk.

Immensely proud of this. Ashamed to admit that in the past I’d never have dreamed of speaking Punjabi publicly for fear of being judged/othered. In an industry which often treats us as though “we’re all the same”, this celebrates our true diversity and delivers a crucial message
