+1 Of course there are double standards at play any issue to do with race is softly softly,unless of course you are a person of colour making it.

Dianne Abbot is a well known rabble rouser, but yes if a white well known non coloured public figure had of said the things she did on twitter i would have expected a police van around theirs within an hour arrest and probable prosecution.

Not to mention the sack from the oppositon front bench.
