And I condemn her comment 100% as racist and unacceptable instead of making excuses because it's someone on my side of the political fence being racist towards someone on the other side. That's what's called consistency. Nope. One of them made a generalised racist statement about white people and the other one said that one black woman was so awful that she made him WANT to hate black women but he doesn’t hate black women . You,are not being consistent, you are being obtuse. Nope, I'm being consistent in condemning racist speech, whereas others here only care about who said it rather than what was said. |

The fact that you refuse to accept the obvious difference and instead repeat the same thing underlines your obtuse position . |

If a male Muslim Labour donor said in a private meeting made the aside ‘ Johnson should be shot ‘ then I doubt much would happen to him . So are we changing the narrative to ‘ misogyny? |

If an Asian, Muslim Labour donor had said about Penny Mordaunt what Hester said about Diane Abbott you and the others defending Hester would not be defending him, far from it you'd be having a field day condemning him, I'd bet my house on it. |

Did Penny Mordaunt say “ Black people love playing 'divide & rule' We should not play their game”. Oh look , she didn’t . |

If I were to make a racist comment about a white person who has themselves made racist comments in the past, I could count on you to leap to my defence could I? |

Oh well, that's alright then. 🙃🙄 Was what he said illegal? - if not, then what is the point of getting all riled up about something that a private citizen said at a private function half a decade ago? Interesting response. You seem to think that because something that is not illegal that it is therefore acceptable. On that basis, that the thread on the transgender prospective parliamentary candidate should be deleted as she is not illegal? |

You are making a straw man fallacy argument by comparing Mordaunt with Abbott . |

I notice you didn't answer my question as well. |

On that basis, that the thread on the transgender prospective parliamentary candidate should be deleted as she is not illegal? Indeed, it's not illegal for trans women to use women's toilets so what's the problem? |
