Imagine the fuss the people who are already attacking this woman would have made, if she had made a scene at the moment in the palace, let’s not pretend it would have gone any better for her

To be fair Liam, she kind of did by saying "listen lady"

If she did say that, that is.

Why would she need to make a scene? Why would she tweet about it with a transcript of how she remembered the conversation and put herself about on news channels to relate how she was 'abused and violated' by an 83 yr old woman?
It would have been a mature thing to do to speak directly to the old lady about how her words were making her feel, and report it to Camilla (who she was seen talking and smiling with after her 'horrid' encounter.)

But no, this very capable woman who heads a charity for abused women grasped the opportunity to make a huge media fuss because she is a known anti - monarchist who has tweeted before about their (non - existent) 'racism' and domestic violence against poor Meghan. Simple as.

Also, I don't believe Lady Susan was being racist. She has mixed with people from all walks of life all over the world while accompanying the Queen and has never put a foot wrong.
This immediate naming, shaming and destroying the careers and lives of anyone who unintentionally offends is doing so much damage to not only that particular person, but to race relations as a whole. It creates a 'them vs us' situation. How can that help towards understanding and unity?

The one part I do agree with is I believe that she deserves a second chance.

Especially if she can learn from her mistake, which imo asking an English woman "what part of Africa do you come from" repeatedly to be a mistake, and obviously offensive.

It always amuses me when people who will never face racism or bigotry feel confident enough to tell people who do and will face it, what the correct or appropriate way to deal with said racism or bigotry, god, minorities aren’t even allowed to be abused unless they follow white peoples rules on how to

Couldn’t agree more. Even worse when you get the people telling people to leave because they don’t like being called up on being *****

I have read posts and watched members of minority groups disagreeing with how she handled the situation - that it was way OTT and publicity driven!
A mature, sensible way of doing things has no bearing on the colour of your skin. It's universal.
