Abbott’s hypocrisy

I would have more sympathy for Diane Abbott if she hadn’t used precisely such ‘racist’ indiscretions against other people in the past. Not least me, frankly. I hope she might begin to see how absurd the whole business is. But I have the horrible feeling she will think herself an innocent who has been wrongly nobbled, perhaps by the vindictive white hegemony, while everybody else is still guilty as sin and deserves to be punished.

Still, the first really good fun story of the new year, don’t you think? Nothing she said, incidentally, was remotely racist as you or I would understand the term.
