The disdain, distrust, and dehumanisation aimed at lads in tracksuits, gold, and caps - the classic white, working-class British outfit, is absurd. Restaurant bans on these clothes are just a thinly veiled way of saying "white, working-class lads are not welcome here." People talk with such hostility you'd think their families were devoured by tracksuit wearers, yet it's this very British working class that fundamentally built modern Britain.
