I live in a multi cultural area. I have lots of friends from ethnic minorities they are all very populara nd well respected people.
If you are racist at school to one of these people everyone will gang up on you and you will be the one who is persecuted.
But I am in shock.
A TINY year seven child on the bus yesterday was attacked. This child is very small for his age but commonly known around the school as 'a dude' because he is quick witted and funny guy (Not to mention he looks like a pimp daddy with all the sixth form girls sighing and going awwww round his shoulders)
A Close friend informed me that yesterday on the school bus a girl in year 11 took off her shoe and started smacking over the head with it. She was swearing and shouting racial abuse - according to the people that saw he was crying whilst she laughed at him still hitting him.
This girl is known as a complete beatch. She cains me for my hair colour to my little brother who got worked up because she was calling me a hoar. She is known to frequantly use ecstacy.
BUT - why and how could anyone do that to an innocent child four years younger than you because of the colour of their skin?
Its shameful and I am disusted by it.
The police have now been involved and she spent today in isolation.
"The Student Council operates in a similar way to the Borough Council, making decisions on topics that affect the Spelthorne community, especially young people. The Borough Council provides a budget of £2000 per year for the Student Council to make 'real' decisions on particular topics. It also means that, as a Councillor, you are able to put forward the views of young people on certain issues.
From the Borough Council's point of view, you are a key contact when consulting young people."

That's last years site, this years is coming soon. I'm an official counciller this year, rather then a deputy.
Anyway, back to the topic...

We have chance to be in the local council but seeing I don't live in the actual town..
I am deputy head girl of sixth form council. Thats alot of work still
The best our local school got was a PTA which, according to my mother, did actually argue about the condition of toilet paper at the time.
We get a say in what happens around the local area, Spelthorne.
What we say generally happens, so if we suggest they build a graffiti wall down the park it would probably be built.

And may I ask what the joke was? Or was it just a string of jokes?
