Shadow Health Minister Diane Abbott has apologised for comments she made on the Twitter social networking site, amid claims they were racist.
She wrote: ''White people love playing 'divide & rule' We should not play their game'' in response to criticism of the term "black community leaders".
Tory MP Nadhim Zahawi had called for her to be sacked for "inciting hatred against white people".
Ms Abbott said later: "I apologise for any offence caused."
"I understand people have interpreted my comments as making generalisations about white people, she said. "I do not believe in doing that."

I wonder how she'd have reacted if a white minister had made similar remarks about black people? Do you think she would have accepted a similar apology as the end of the matter or demanded blood?
