If you've got a few quid spare and would like to support a good cause, I think I have one for you.
Some GB News commentator/influencer is taking a UK charity that organises internships for black and minority ethnic people to court over "anti-white racism": https://www.theguardian.com/law/2026/apr/29/sophie-corcoran-gb-news-sue-charity-not-offering-internships-white-people-legal-action
This is the charity: https://10000internsfoundation.com
You can donate to them here: https://donorbox.org/10-000-interns-foundation-milestone-public

The legal claim isn't going to work, I don't think. The Equality Act (2010) allows for companies (charities are companies) to discriminate in this way. I visited a sex shop that only allowed women and people accompanying women into the shop, and they only employed women. They had been very careful to explore legality for both of these practices, and because they were a company specifically seeking to serve women and help them to feel safe and so on, their practice was legal. But obviously still donate to the charity, they shouldn't have to deal with this white supremacist crap.
