So you just accept lies being spread about you being a racist? Nah, you wouldn't take it on the chin, neither would I, and nor would pretty much anyone who has contributed in this thread.

The family did explain - they condemned what has been accepted as happening.

What did she think would happen ...I mean it’s pretty clear it wouldn’t be business as usual

I think she is quite happy painting the Royal family as racist, don’t you?

Wrongly in my view, but they could hardly do anything else backed into a corner

And just to be clear, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with appropriately/politely asking someone where they originate from (it can be the start of a really cool, interesting conversation and very-often is) but Hussey didn’t just ask a question with fair, respectful intentions. She was prying and prying until she got her form of confirmation that Marlene Fulani wasn’t British enough for her.

But we got may and Johnson instead. that's democracy. Offering the same things as tories, is not a strategy that will work, when the actual tories are prepared to pander to the even more base instincts of the right. It was the labour right that worked to prevent Corbyn winning in 17, when he had a chance in a non-brexit election. That is a fact that can be proved as labour files and internal documents over years have been released.

Socialism is an economic philosophy, the rest is just nonsense.
That's fine, i do lean right at times. But for the most part i don't. I know this is off topic, but i still can't grasp why you hate Wes so much? I understand your objection to him privatising more areas of the NHS, and can't say i agree with that either. But us central a holes like Wes, more than anything the Tories could ever produce. He believes in multiculturalism, a gay man who came from working class upbringings.

What would rather, him, or dicks like Truss? Keir?

No, really, where do you come from?

No, but where do you really come from?

They're all cut from exactly the same cloth. I perhaps know a little more about the things Streeting and his mates were up to during the Corbyn years to actually prevent a labour government. I'm off out to meet some friends now, but prob a conversation for pm if you want to have it at some point.

Example of lovely, appropriate, well-intentioned asking: ‘you’ve got such beautiful, chocolate-y/olive skin and Chioma/Obinna/Moyinoluwa/Oritsetosan | Manpreet/Fahd | Klestore | Ageous sounds like such a lovely name. Is that representative or Nigerian | Pakistani | Albanian | Greek heritage?’

Anyone reasonable would be proud to answer. It shows an open interest and might-well be the starter of a fascinating conversation.

Example of what isn’t okay: someone under the guise of ‘I’m old so you can’t take offence to what I say without being ageist, but I can be (not even very subtly) racist projecting a 7-minute interrogative monologue until a lady clearly uncomfortable confirms that she has non-British heritage.

There’s a world of difference between the two.
