I have little doubt there are issues of over sensitivity but having heard the lady describe the incident some balance needed. The event was to address sexual violence and abuse. What the feck has where her parents come from to do with anything? And by all means make a gentle request perhaps caveated with personal knowledge of Ghana or Nigeria or whatever. However her ladyship did not read the signs but was at the question like a dog with a bone. She proved that she had no touch with modern reality and an apology and redirection to a world more familiar to her like hunting would have done the job. The sack is outrageous. Lady Hussey was merely asking, in a convoluted way, about the cultural heritage of the black lady, dressed in African garb. I am conscious that this debate has veered off the subject of 'Migrant Crisis' so I have nothing further to add, besides this matter makes my blood boil and in the interests of my health I would be well advised to withdraw from this discussion.

The woman is 83 and probably....like a lot of the well heeled protected class, completely out of touch with the realities of culture war feeding frenzy. The Royal family are essentially woke, especially the younger and more impressionable they are and this servant to the Queen comes from another time and has been fed to the guttersnipes. She's better off out of it. The Royals will eventually be eaten and abolished by the woke mentality anyway. Edited by Stirlingsays (01 Dec 2022 3.09pm)

Edited by Willo (01 Dec 2022 3.06pm) Perhaps there was a dress code and the inference was that you can’t come in here dressed like that…
hats off to palace, they were always gonna be louder, and hate to say it but they were impressive ALL bouncing and singing. |

Edited by Stirlingsays (01 Dec 2022 3.09pm) Some old lady the world has never heard of makes some out of touch remarks to another woman no one has heard of and the media goes mad. The Palace immediately sacks her but that is still not enough to sate the bloodlust of the woke. Queue endless nonentity race professor experts to claim that the Royal family is racist and soaked in blood (their words). As for the the lady who was offended, her original remarks were quite measured but I see today they she has now ramped them up. No doubt somebody had explained to her that she hadn't been as offended as she should have been. Sigh. Edited by Badger11 (01 Dec 2022 3.51pm)

I have been molten with anger, 'Spitting feathers' and in a state of apoplexy about the episode concerning the black lady and Lady Hussey with the latter being forced to resign for asking an innocent question about the heritage of the lady adorned in African garb.What on earth is 'Racist' about this ? Those who were subjected to my tirade this morning were concerned about my blood pressure as I was spitting out fury akin to hail of machine gun fire.
Have you actually read the exchange? As above these things always come down to context and motivation I personally wouldn't define the conversation as racist but it would make me question what sort of stuff she really thinks / says behind closed doors. If she'd just asked the question politely and not turned it into pointed and aggressive questioning, no issue. You'd have to be pretty stupid and insensitive to harangue someone like that anyway, especially as they've probably had to deal with the usual 'go back to your own country' etc. etc. all their life. Not particularly smart.

Classic Litigation and media is never a good mix No doubt legals in her ear saying take them for all you can get Don't agree with that but that's the culture these days, whether it's manufacturing a trip on the street or having your hair being touched by an 83yr old woman

Judging people solely on their appearance, and not heeding what they say to you in response to intrusive questions, is an inherently racist attitude. That you, and apparently others, cannot understand this, or just don't care, says all that anyone needs to know. There is no excuse for such behaviour and it's really a shame that there are still some that fail to recognise it. At least the lady concerned had the good grace to realise this, and apologise unreservedly. You aren't strong on apologising though. It's not in the nature of those who feel they have the right to select the PM.
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

She apologised and lost the unpaid job she's done for over 60 years. What more should be done to her?

Given that the subject of this thread is 'Migrant Crisis',I am NOT going to respond to posts which gallivant away from the topic, indeed comments attempting to lure me into the debate. Returning to the subject matter, 44,000 illegal immigrants have crossed the channel this year and I wholly agree with Suella Braverman and indeed Nigel Farage that this amounts to an "Invasion".
