Yup...
Only in his head...
Whooooaaaaa...Hold the front page...
1) Diane Abbot has claimed Brexit was triggered by racists who did not like seeing people who look 'foreign' on their streets. She Branded Brexiters "Stupid and Racist"
She didn't this was Fake Reporting by the Daily Fail who issued this retraction in later Editions An earlier version of this article stated that Diane Abbott MP had called those who voted for Brexit 'stupid and racist'. We are happy to clarify that this was in fact the phrase used by Tory MPs who responded to Ms Abbott's remarks at a meeting at the Labour party conference.www.google.com/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3808891/amp/Brexiteers-accused-foreign-faces-Corbyn-s-pal-Diane.html
2) She said Brexit supporters had attacked ethnic minority voters afterwards but has no evidence to back this up
There is an abundance of evidence - Article one year after Brexit Vote
Race and faith attacks reported across UK increase by highest rate on record since the referendum, Freedom of Information figures reveal

2) Said when people spoke about immigrants, often included people like her from ethnic minority backgrounds who had been British for generations (Her Parents are Jamaican, she has been brought up traditionally Jamaican. Her loyalties are clearly biased towards West Indian people).
What utter poppycock is Rishi brought up in the Indian Tradition only favouring Indian people, is Cruella, Jim Dimley etc brought up in their Tradition
Some might classify your remark as Racist, I consider it only crass3) "London shouldn't have another white middle ages mayor"
This was a comment Abbott made in relation to her Labour Party opponent Gareth Thomas as one of six Candidates for London Mayor. Her comment was crass and in the end neither received the nomination
Strangely another Labour MP Margaret Hodge (Labour Friends of Israel) had made the exact same comment a few months previously but it didn't get much Media Coverage 4) "Blonde, blue-eyed Finnish girls" are unsuitable as nurses because they had "never met a black person before"
There is no other way of calling it but a Racist comment
The back story of why Abbott said this in 1996 is writing in the local Hackney Gazette she questioned hiring 20 Finnish Nurses for her local hospital and that nurses from the Caribbean might be more suitable.
To some degree Abbott expressed here everything that is wrong and divides Society and creates a hierarchy of Racism which Abbott has plunged herself into
Anti-Racism at its core is about Social Equality but what has evolved is each "Tribe" has retreated to its own grouping
Let's also be honest it has also manifested into White Privilege. Therefore how can White Brits who suffer similar Social disadvantage align
Whether this has evolved or was Engineered is hard to tell.
Abbotts 1996 comments were undoubtedly Racist but how do they differ from these?
The “values” of those crossing the Channel in small boats, Jenrick claimed, were “completely different” to British values, and were “undermining cultural cohesion”. His ministerial boss, the home secretary, Suella Braverman, echoed the claim that Channel migrants “possess values… at odds with ours"
5) Abbott tweeted "White people love playing 'divide and rule' We should not play their game" in 2012
This was said in a private twitter exchange between Abbott and Bim Adewunmi in context of the Stephen Lawrence Trial Adewunmi objected to the generalisation of the "Black Community"
As she often does Abbott engaged mouth before brain and responded with another Generalisation I.e "White People like to Divide and Rule"
As a generalisation it is a Racist Comment, as a commentary on Colonialism it is entirely accurate 6) Abbott suggested that taxi drivers discriminate on racial grounds, tweeting that she was "Dubious of black people claiming they’ve never experienced racism. Ever tried hailing a taxi I always wonder?"
If she did it was stupid, anyone that uses London Cabs know they discriminate against everyone and won't take you where you want to go if it doesn't suit the.7) Abbott captures a central political fact, which is that white people in western societies have benefited from their histories of colonial exploitation. .She used the hashtag "tactics as old as colonialism."
She used the term in your Point 5 above and its entirely accurate as far as I'm concerned 8) “West Indian mothers would go to the wall for their children”, suggesting others would not, Andrew Neil responded: "So black mums love their kids more than white mums, do they?" She could not bring herself to say mothers of every race love their children just as much.
Again context is important, she was speaking in a personal capacity in defending her decision to send her son to Private School. Hypothetical possibly, Racist no.9) The MP was investigated by the Committee on Standards and Privileges in 2004 when it emerged she had failed to declare earnings of £17,300 for appearances on The Week.
In what way is this Racist?
You may be shocked how many MPs "Inadvertently" forget to declare all their earnings which is for Transparency reasons only. It's not as if her appearances on This Week alongside Michael Portaloo would go unnoticed or people not expect she was paid to do so.10) Has a charity that helps black children only in education and spent 29K of its 35K budget on a party for Parliament.
There are literally dozens of organisations of which MPs either Head or are members of e.g. Conservative/Labour Friends of Israel. The "Party" back in 2014 was actually an awards ceremony held at Westminster
I'd say Abbott has a particular interest in Education as a means of Social Mobility. She herself was only one of Two Black Caribbean Women to gain a Place in Cambridge in the 1970s where she read History 11) Missing a Brexit Vote claiming she has a migraine. We don’t believe her.
Again is this Racist?
You'd be amazed the number of MPs who suddenly are unavailable for contentious votes including 2 of the last 3 PMs who miraculously were needed for on urgent meeting overseas so unfortunately missed a vote in HoC
12) Another racist attack on white people. More so men, again.
www.express.co.uk/news/uk/769246/diane-abbott-labour-racist-attacks-radicalisation-white-men-sky-sophy-ridgeIt is completely acknowledged that of all MPs Abbott is subjected to the most vile online abuse
Sometimes that abuse is not anonymous but by the largest Conservative Party Donor whose dislike for Abbott is so extreme he would like to shoot her and as a result hates all Black Women
According to Rishi, Hesters comments were Rude.Where does it stop, every time she opens her mouth she does every other party a favour
Surely this is one too many racist remarks and its time to find a more suitable person, she appears to be obsessed with white people being racist, she appears almost desperate to prove all white people are racist yes persists to shun them, how can she represent the other races, particularly the white people in her constituency, fairly? We do not need another MP who's policies are all about racism, anti white and British hatred and nothing else. Even her charity is for black children in education, Id she excluding other children in need becuase of skin colour?. Considering she was a race relations officer for 2 years, she has done nothing for creating good race relations, just controversy and divide between communities and that is not healthy.. Really, no one is against black people being in the house of commons but we do object to racist MP's being in there. Its time for a new more positive
