Maybe because Scottish isn’t a race.

That's true, but she does look like a stereotypical scotsman in a way..so on that note, I think its fair to say, "I wouldn't be offended if I was attending such a lavish event, and someone asked me in my kilt and sporran, what part of Scotland are you from"

I would actually be made up to bits that someone was asking me about myself and my home town.

Omg that's the most terrible question in the world ever, omg, sooooooooooo bad. Kill the woman who asked her that question (should of asked where her parents/grandparents are ORIGINALLY from), oh man that's awful and shocking. Man we're terrible here, no wonder we're leaving this country in our hundreds of thousands.

I can find you a real racist.

I saw one earlier on Twitter. I'll see if I can find her.

This isn't your kind of racist that just simply asks someone a question (not racist behavior at all) This women I saw wanted people excluded purely based on the colour of their skin (a real racist)

She is not a racist she was just being interested in a guest. But the nasty spiteful guest was desperate to take offence when none was intended

But asking a British Lady

Is seen as Racist

This lady, Ms Fulani, whose charity works with women with African and Caribbean heritage who have suffered violence at home, has previously accused the Royal Family of 'domestic violence' against Meghan Markle.
Daily Mail

Ms Fulani says Lady Susan refused to believe she was from Britain. This isn't true. She was enquiring as to her origins.

She has produced an exact transcript of the conversation with Lady Susan, word for word - hmmm, did she record it? Unless she did, which I doubt, we only have her impressions to go on.

As she previously accused the Royals of domestic violence towards Meghan Markle in March 2021,( ummm, WHAT?) it seems she can be rather OTT in her accusations.
