She's been an mp for 30 years, so must be doing something right. She's by no means perfect, but if she was racist, do you think that she would be able to hold down a position in the shadow cabinet without the press having an even bigger field day? Because it is the usual double standards and selective outrage of the liberal/left. Racism against black people is treated as the vilest of thought crimes whereas racism against white people, especially Jews (unless expressed by the far right) is considered more or less cool.

We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell] |

Edited by hedgehog50 (25 Jan 2017 10.16pm) Give me the evidence showing her to be racist. And not 1 out of context tweet.

Imagine your outrage and foot-stamping if, say Nigel Farage, had said any of these things about black people. I expect you would be round his house smashing windows and damaging his car. 1988, “the British invented racism.”

True...probably though perhaps it would be a liberation for all of us Edited by Sedlescombe (25 Jan 2017 4.58pm) I am treating the whole thread in the tongue in cheek way it deserves. None of us are likely to change anything in terms of Brexit (presumably we're all chit chatting on here and none of us are doing a huge amount to actually influence anything - I am happy to be corrected on that but I imagine it to be the minority if at all), more so, none of us are likely to change each other's opinions either. On that basis it feels like this thread has been in stalemate for quite some time. At least pre-vote there might have been some point to it. That said, I'm not trying to suggest that anyone should be telling anyone else what they can and can't discuss/argue about, so hopefully it doesn't sound like that's what I am trying to do. I just think that if I see someone in the street wearing a Palace top then that's all I need to know about them to give them a nod and perhaps say "eeeeeagles" and I don't give two sh*ts about their political beliefs. I am prepared to bet most of us are the same. So an argument on a forum thread that often gets a bit beyond banter and whereby no one is likely to ever budge on their opinion that they had on page 1 of 500,000 (or whatever we are on) seems a wee bit fruitless.
