The Anonymous Widower

Worried For Clive

On a bus on Saturday, I sat next to a lady of about my age and we got talking about Russia’s illegal attack on Ukraine.

We then started talking about BBC’s news correspondent in Ukraine; Clive Myrie.

We were both worried about Clive.

This article on the BBC is entitled Racism In Russia: Stories Of Prejudice and it details a stories of a black student and others in the country. I also remember, when I went to see Ipswich play in Moscow, that a black fan told me he had been abused on the Moscow Metro.

I do wonder that if Kyiv falls, that Clive will not have an easy time.

Let’s hope Clive was born lucky!
