What's going to be achieved by that? If anything it'll reaffirm Marlene's viewpoint.

Very gracious of Lady Fulani to accept this apology, I don't think I could have been so forgiving of Susan.

Charity boss suddenly changes her mind and accepts the apology after originally refusing it because of the backlash she got….

I'd hate to think the racist trolling she received played into the decision.

Tbf the woman's accent should've been a huge giveaway that she weren't born in Africa.

I like what you’re implying overall but a person’s accent depends more on who they spent the most time hanging around with in their formative years, not necessarily where they just happened to be born. People’s accents can change and it’s easier to pick up on another accent if you weren’t even old enough to talk properly when you left your original home.

I suppose that's a fair point.

Surely she would've had some Londoner friends though, what I mean by that is sometimes people pick up lingo from their friends, including sometimes regional accents.

Perhaps she should have apologised directly in person before rather than a lip service apology.

However now she has done so in person which is the correct way, which she should have known after decades of professional service.
Better late than never.

I'd love to know why this moment however has been chosen after the time already past.
Anyhow it's commendable she has done so, or possibly been made to do so actually IN person.

One simple question to Marlene.

Marlene, do you want the checks on your charities accounting to disappear?

That's a whole different issue.

I'm sure she would however and it's a valid question.
