I won't post his number so you'll just have to take my word for it.

i bet his ears where still ringing after the lashing that Abbott gave him

She's an idiot, a black idiot. There are plenty of black and White idiots around.

What's even worse is that she's a politician, so she's a black-idiot-politician. We should really feel sorry for her.

She's a black idiot politician that also likes to flash the race card whenever it suits, even though she pretends to be a socialist but sends her kids to private schools etc.

She embodies everything that was bad about New Labour.

Ideally I would like her to just disappear and lose her seat at the next election.

Should be a simple flow chart used for this sort of scenario.

Something said --->
1. Was it Accurate? ---> Yes ---> Move along nothing to see here
No ---> Proceed to question 2
2. Was it racist? ---> Yes ---> Public appology followed by removal from position.
No ---> Move along nothing to see here.

And so on.....

Love how much this thread slowed down when the troll went to sleep.

I've just seen footage of her being interviewed for a local TV news programme. Evidently, her mobile rung in the middle of the interview and she was faced with a rather stern call from Ed on camera. Her face was a real picture I must say.

Would she have apologised had she not been 'forced' to or does she really believe she's done nothing wrong and has nothing to be sorry about?

Going on her previous behaviour I'd say it's more likely to be the latter.

What, ineptitude and hyprocrisy you mean?

I bet Ed would like her to disappear too. Perhaps if we all wish hard enough they'll both disappear.....

No, as she originally said in response to it that some people have interpreted it maliciously.
so she obviously thought that the only people moaning about it were those ones, so there was nobody to apologise to.

she does come across not so much as a closet racist, but someone with a chip on her shoulder who feels hard done by because she's black.

I saw the same footage this morning and no way in hell would she have apologized .She actually believes what she said was true which says alot about her character and what she realy thinks

How so ,do you know her personally or do you work with her ....or are you her ......or is just cos' you is black that makes you the authority on her life experiences



nonsense ,ethnic minorities have as much say in this country as anybody else ,in fact i will go as far as to say that in my opinion their voice is louder



There shouldn't be a "black community" there should just be a "community"
Abbots tireless work for the "black community" only serves to encourage distance between blacks and whites and does nothing for racial harmony ,as i said before she and others like her are the "black communities"worst enemy



Maybe that's because the youngsters have more sense and don't want to be singled out into a separate community or treated as a cause to be fought for by someone with a political agenda



no, He,I and others(mainly the mods) would want some tangible evidence if you are going to make claims of racism

"Cause you is black" really is that the best you can come with smh

What say do ethnic minorities have please tell - maybe they have to shout because they are not heard.

as I have said before - your not getting any links so as far as I'm concerned that chapter is closed.
