Is it REALLY that much of an issue?

Whatever you might have seen - and a holiday nearly thirty years ago doesn't grant you a great deal of expertise in how white or otherwise the English population outside London might be - it's certainly neither impossible nor unprecedented for someone who isn't white to have been living in a mining town in the 80s. It also certainly isn't unprecedented to see a child being brought up by parents of a different ethnicity, or who is of a different ethnicity than his sibling and there's more than one possible plausible explanation for both those scenarios.

And if you *really*, in this instance, can't see past skin colour, then I feel very sorry for you. It's 2014, not 1920. The world has changed.
