By all recognised definitions, this is racist. Just admit it.

Please don't be a hypocrite....again.

I get your point, I didn't realise you were referring to the tweet. Still I'm happy to admit I got it wrong.


What did Abbott say? Who did she say it to? It's not clear by the tweet. Just that the Sun said she said something about people voting leave hating foreigners. On the surface it is racist. However she wouldn't be the first to look like 3 week old Fanny batter for using a sweeping generalisation would she?

I remember painter's "asylum scum" comment on the Euro Queens Hotel topic recently when the leftists went ape s***. His freedom of speech wasn't allowed though. Funny that!

Well............Diane definitely said what she said at all 5 or six attempts to get it right, but I seriously doubt that Teresa personally lost, (left on the bus, threw them out with the Mars bar wrappers, shredded them in error on her personal 'for your eyes only' shredder) 114 files - that's a pretty bulky parcel for her to lose.

Are you suggesting May made her "mistake' on purpose Becky?

Really? I don't remember any mod editing his comments. I remember them being vehemently challenged. Are you sure he wasn't permitted to say what he thought?

That's a very fair cop.

Mother Theresa or what?

She said: “The people that complain about the freedom of movement will not be satisfied because what they really want is to see less foreign-looking people on their streets.”

If that's racist,so are a fair number of the posts for certain posters on here...

I don't think its racist,"foreign looking" doesn't equate to people of a different race...she could be talking about Poles or Romanians,as some of our friends on here often do and then say they are not racist because they are discriminating on grounds of ethnicity rather than race.

She is also clearly not saying that people against freedom of movement are of this view,not people of a particular race...

Sop,she may be over generalising,she may be right (or wrong) but she wasn't being racist..

Amazing how some people try to focus debate back by knocking Abbott rather than face up to the plain racism alive and well within our society.

Abbott in rare moment of clarity shocker. Replace "The" at the start of her quote with "A sizeable minority" and she's bang on the money, isn't she?

I feel dirty.
