This problem of donations flooding places like cry and ghana and impacting locally produced textile markets. Even back then.

What can retell is be doing to stop this from happening. Because obviously there at the start of the chain right absolutely. But i also think that we need to think of ourselves as consumers as an can that chain And that what. We do matters but retailers and brands do need to take responsibility. I mean the bit that jumped out at me about that with you just paid a bit from it. They're saying forty percent of the secondhand clothing. That's expected to ghana is rubbish. That has to be dumped. That is just awful. Isn't it and i think part of the problem is that we're producing clydes more cheaply than we used to low equality that are more likely to fall apart more quickly and so brands need to to really look at treating treating fashion and garments is disposable. Doesn't work because poverty anything else. Most of them are podesta which is not biodegradable..

Explode online Lynton traveled to a prevent workshop in the British Midland, he was given a lift by the program's regional coordinator will bell day Linden asked him how the torrent of misinformation might be tackled. The sad reality is, we don't really know how to resolve this in the long term. But certainly this constant willful misrepresentation of facts and misinformation. That's out there on line is becoming one of the one of the judges of our time. We driving through the middle of the UK some of these areas. We're driving through have been odd spots for right wing thought it right wing extremists. Referrals to the programs. Can you explain the central contradiction for me, which is fun, so hard to fathom about how it can be that the grandchildren of mean who went and fought against non sees British soldiers can somehow can fight Nazi audiology with British nationalism? That is a really difficult one. And I think they see themselves in that lines. Although they've used to the likes of Hugh me clearly seemed to echo the views of, of the Nazis of the Third Reich. They don't see themselves as near nonsense. They see themselves as defenders of their identity with us, particularly cultural identity. They see themselves as defending that country against high levels of immigration defending so-called extinction of white people that they're both into the ideas of their nauseous, but on the Browns, but we see from time to time images of. Able giving the solution of the third, right? And we say swastikas, sometimes in Britain just about the, the foot on extreme right-wing supposed VAR is that comes down to the concept of piercing purity of race. And that's where they are aligned with the ideas of Adolf fiddler on the nonsense. They define themselves. It's a fool of identity politics, on the on the other side, white identity politics define themselves, by purity of them whiteness, which is one of them why one of the most effective interventions that we do with such individuals is DNA test, because when they realize it actually then not pure white, and that in a comes from or across the world, including Africa. It's a it's a real hammer blow to their ideology. Tell me more about denied test. I've told me an anecdote of the most striking case you've had with where you've done that. And what's happened to the post at one guy? Right down in TIs. But you I thought lobby because he. Aided another the result was free, but the result was somehow anathema to. But he actually broke down in tears, when he realized the, the no daddy's that under the skin MerVal sign, regardless of skin, color, because it absolutely turned did it twenty years of ideology belief on its head on this, like break down in tears out of completes recanting of all of his views on in the space of just a few moments how much pain he goes to other people in our fell that he was positive that roar Dirk una community as well.
