What do you associate with the colour white?
Here's what people in London said:
Man 1: Peace 'cos it's the absence of all other colours.
Man 2: Looking around I'd probably say paper and studying, 'cos paper is
white.
Man 3: A flag that people use to surrender.
Presenter: Have you ever had any times when you felt like waving a white
flag?
Man 3: There have been times when I've had so much homework that I'm
thinking: "Should I just not do any of it and just show them the white flag?"
But in the end I've managed to overcome it.
Now tell us what you think!
