    ‘White people love playing divide and rule’

    ‘Blonde blue eyed Finnish nurses are unsuitable to be in the NHS as they can’t relate to a black population’.

    I’m sorry, but how can you interpret those views any other way? It’s as flagrantly racist as it’s possible to get. Which is why the Anti Racist Alliance condemned her.

    See the problem with folk like you is that your faux virtue signalling and self-righteousness is what gets jokers like Abbott in positions they should be nowhere near and when called out for it, you never have a persuasive argument.

    Diane Abbott is a dangerous woman, who’s intellect is somewhat lacking and has been proven time and time again with her constant car crash interviews.

    White people colonised the majority of the world so she has a point (historically)
    And i've been a nurse in the NHS for many years but have never known a Finnish one?

    Why do you have to be so abusive? My understanding is that she has achieved a great deal academically given her background. Perhaps I'm wrong. I do agree that her performances on QT leave a lot to be desired. As to the THICK comment, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by that. Yes, I'm a Labour voter (but will not vote for them whilst Corbyn is leader due to his approach to Brexit) but I am rather well qualified academically, and have had a pretty successful career. If you are therefore suggesting that all Labour voters are THICK then perhaps I'm the exception

    Does self-righteousness only get Labour Politicians in Power and is Buffoonery exclusive to the Labour Party. I give you Boris Johnson, Then the **** that gave us Universal Credit Duncan-Smith and fek’d off. thetwat that promised an EU referendum to save his own skin and then fek’d off, and don’t get me started about May. Now which self-righteous pratts voted for these? For every perceived bad penny in the Labour Party there is at least treble that in the Tories.

    To those slating Diane Abbott as a buffoon, racist etc ... 2 words.....Boris Johnson. Makes all the same **** ups (and more) yet is painted by the media as a jolly joker. The man is a liar, a cheat, a racist and much more yet the media laughs it off as "Boris being Boris".

    All QT, the media and the Tories do when faced with awkward questions is try and blame Labour (as in waiting 2 years before offering to talk then saying it's Corbyn to blame as he wants to protect the country) and keeping asking what Labour would do and blaming them (????) even though they have been given no opportunity to be involved and don't know the fine details of the negotiations.

    Boris Johnson is mightily lampooned in the media. He too offers lots of ammunition.

    Coming accross like a baffoon doesn't necessarily mean one is a baffoon, there is a difference. However I'd suggest Boris comes accross as a baffoon and indeed is a baffoon.
    She often comes accross as a baffoon which offers opponents ammunition, ammunition that is probably more harmful as labour are not in government.

    I'd love to think I understood most of that. As I said earlier, she's certainly not lacking in intellect, but perhaps needs to practise memorising facts and figures a little more thoroughly to avoid looking like someone who's stumbled in front of a camera by mistake.

    No idea what 'faux virtue signalling' means, but thanks anyway, I'll have that. Sounds reight exotic.

    I think, irrespective of politics this shows you a rather poorer light.

    She's done it again! quote from her office on the Question Time thing

    “The media must stop legitimising mistreatment, bias and abuse against Ms Abbott as a black woman in public life.
    Never backwards at coming forward playing the race card is Dianne, could have easily said a woman in public life but................

    Don't see anything at all wrong with that. You've clearly got a problem.
