"unacceptable"? did he not mean "unacthecptable"?
Labour party = lulz
Describing a political party as "lulz" based on the leader's lisp does sum up your lack of knowledge in politics.
Try again.
I know enough to know they don't have any agenda, (aside from slagging other parties off) the party is dead on It's feet. I could never understand why anyone would vote labour...
I don't understand the culture we live in, where somebody should be sacked for a single mistake?
For heaven's sake, let her get on with her job? We should all be thicker skinned. Obviously racist people shouldn't have jobs in government to begin with, but "gaffs" like this aren't just cause for dismissal in my opinion.

If you read the thread, you would realise this isn't her first mistake.
Labour politicians make lots of mistakes.
It's the labour prerogative... lol!
dont think she could have been anymore racist in her comment if she tried, no matter the context.
what a contradiction, pointing out racism by leaving a racist comment, idiot, she is a smart woman too, i kind of like watching her on tv, i'd like to think she isnt racist though and come out with it in the heat of the moment..i guess im wrong..

She's used to voicing her racism without any sort of backlash, since it's socially and politically acceptable racism because it's against "whites". So of course she'd think she'd be able to say such a thing without any sort of backlash. I'm surprised it's attracted any attention at all and I'm sure it will blow over quickly.
It's normal for there to be some groups that it is normal to be irrationally prejudiced against. The "acceptable target" groups change over time, but the basic idea remains the same - "It's OK against this group, it's wrong against that group".
You don't mind an MP having racist opinions? Hmmmm.
She does make a valid point it's just wrong to generalise white people, the vast majority of whites are as much victims of this governmental technique as non-whites.
