As Mr Bertram says it says more about the MP than the flag. A big chip on that shoulder of hers. It really is getting stupid.

[the truth]

yayy thats the thought police of new labour at work again..pretending they care about equality and race relations when in reality they create it by taking false offence on behalf of others and creating division, then they want you to vote them in to sort out the division.

You sound offended

This from the article says it all really -

‘If the MP thinks it was racist then it probably says more about the MP than the flag.’

It's a silly thing for her to say. The flag represents the industrial part of our past, the depiction of the chain on the flag is not referencing slavery but the fact that chains were one of our trademark exports. It's just a new MP making a bad decision to make a name for herself but of course some people will look for any excuse to go 'Grrr Labour! Grr the Left! Grrr people that think differently to me!'

She's just another PC desperado seeing racism round every corner.

Talk about stupidity though - she lacked forethought and understanding all in her desperation to scream 'racism'. She has made herself look incredibly stupid - glad she isn't my MP.

shame you backtracked on the truth in your last few sentences. this is the disease of the left to falely accuse all opponents of racism and sexism all day long. Its a cheap shot and it should become a serious crime to make these endless false accusations
