. However, I do agree with his conclusion that grime music might seem to make the listener more likely to run around London stabbing people
Riduculous nonsense Nick, you can do better than that. What on earth is "might seem" here? What's our evidential basis?
But let us start from the point that Murray goes out id his way to be as offensive as he can about grime, and there's a reason why he does that, and it's that Murray is a professional racist.

it would also be a good idea if an exchange of views about what types of music people like were not highjacked by one particular poster who seems to delight in making accusations of racism and misogyny at every conceivable opportunity.
And I'll tell you what David, I'll keep doing it for as long as senior figures in English chess are the kind of people whose commitment in these areas consists of humbug and shrieking hysteria every time the subjects come up.
(If English chess actually have a damn about misogyny there's a couple of leading figures who would be absolutelty persona non grata. But you don't have a problem with them, do you?)

Given that I recall Richard as a junior, I think he is somewhat younger than Justin.
Assuming the years of birth on the FIDE rating site are correct it's 1982 v 1965
Now that
is a fair correction

"Do you play chess?"
"Yes, but I prefer a game with a better chance of cheating."
