Aaand the passing of the buck begins, let's not hold Theresa May's government responsible for their actions when we can reach for an excuse to blame a Labour government that no longer exists.

How is it passing the buck when the labour government is responsible for that case? Both parties are to blame for the windrush scandal. It goes back years.

Of course it does, and of course, the Labour Government that was complicit at the time they were in office SHOULD bear some of the blame - time passing does NOT mitigate culpability.

I think this is a story that needs to be told but not on the expense of trying to distance Theresa May's name from the scandal which people will try to do. I agree that both sides are culpable but like I said, people will just use this story to excise their beloved tories from blame. |

I don't like the way you refer to her as black in the title Arista

He is the leader of the Labour Party - of course he gets brought up! It is his finatical young supporters desperately trying to look for any reason to divert criticism away from Labour, and hence Corbyn, and on to the Tories.

Corbyn is a piece of sh*te, he's so racist and full of himself (almost like our Geert Wilders)
i hope that trash never becomes PM

She is 'Black' - which is now the preferred 'Politically Correct' descriptor as opposed to 'Coloured'. There is nothing offensive in the use of that word in the context of the subject matter, nor in Arista's choice to use it in his 'title'.

It's certainly politically related and attributable to the tories and labour , but it's a bit of a stretch to hang this one specifically on Corbyn

Not when this story happened in 2009. Your grievances should be with the Brown era of Labour. You've pretty much proved what I was saying earlier about people shifting the focus away from Tories for the current scandal for an excuse to blame Labour while excising the Tories from that same blame.
