Dr Rock already did, mate. And the Whigs are not the same as the Tory Party.

They were in fact the Tories' main opposition until they turned into the Liberals in the mid 19c. Love that DM thought they were the same party.

"... In April 2015, a Tory candidate for Derby Council, Gulzabeen Afsar, said she would never support "the Jew" in reference to Ed Miliband..."

"... Jews own everything, we all know it's true. I wish I was Jewish, but my nose isn't long enough. In October 2014 after an investigation by UCL Union, the Conservative Society was ordered to apologise. There is no evidence that the Conservative Party investigated the incidents..."

[Default to the negative]

Wow.... They just keep on coming.

Yeah, but it's better to spread them out a bit. You scuppered your own thread with that link bombardment.

Anyway, you picked up one of my favourite Boris bits:

In a 2002 column for the Daily Telegraph, Boris Johnson (then MP for Henley) described black people as "piccaninnies" with "watermelon smiles".

He apologised six years later in 2008 (when running to be London Mayor). No disciplinary action was taken by the Conservative Party at any point.

I will never understand why you Londoners voted this man as your mayor. I know Ken pissed people off with his congestion charges and whatnot. But does that mean you have to vote for Boris? Surely there's a third or fourth option?

And isn't London full of black people anyway? Did they vote for Boris or did they just not vote? I suppose it must be the latter because I can't imagine London blacks casting a Boris vote.

The voting forms were confusing.

I can just imagine the voting forms.

Would you like to vote for Sour Ken?



Oh my word, what a killjoy. Perhaps you would like to vote for Wacky Boris instead?



'Oh yes please, Boris is an absolute scream!'

And you fucking did it, didn't you?

The example of the postroom guy who is now our Director of IT & Comms is always brought up at work as proof that anyone can make it to the top at our business if they work hard and apply themselves, a classic misinterpretation of the truth which is that he is the only person to have ever done that or similar, as our company structure and culture makes it virtually impossible for anyone new to make it to that level.

We do however recruit and employ women and minorities genuinely without prejudice, and as a white male I am the minority here.

If you pick out exceptions as being typical of a wider culture you need a refresher on how to think critically.

Have you ever read Johnson's original column?

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/personal-view/3571742/If-Blairs-so-good-at-running-the-Congo-let-him-stay-there.html

What a relief it must be for Blair to get out of England. It is said that the Queen has come to love the Commonwealth, partly because it supplies her with regular cheering crowds of flag-waving piccaninnies; and one can imagine that Blair, twice victor abroad but enmired at home, is similarly seduced by foreign politeness.

They say he is shortly off to the Congo. No doubt the AK47s will fall silent, and the pangas will stop their hacking of human flesh, and the tribal warriors will all break out in watermelon smiles to see the big white chief touch down in his big white British taxpayer-funded bird. Like Zeus, back there in the Iliad, he has turned his shining eyes away, far over the lands of the Hippemolgoi, the drinkers of mares' milk. He has forgotten domestic affairs, and here, as it happens, in this modest little country that elected him, hell has broken loose.

He is such a show-off cleverdick who tries to be funny and appear effortlessly learned but just says things that are obviously offensive and looks like a fucking idiot. Needs a clip round the ear. Shut up, Johnson.

Some very useful articles in this thread, especially the dossiers of Tory racism the action (or, frequently, inaction) that followed.

Where can these things be more loudly broadcast? Owen Jones seems to be a fighting a one-man defence of Corbyn at the moment, rather at odds with the general direction of the rest of the Guardian. Perhaps his editor would allow him to write an article about Tory racism, for editorial balance.

Boris Johnson really is a fuckin git isn't he.

[shh]

...as long as they think and behave exactly like a straight white man.

The majority of white men in this country are lower-middle/working class, so precisely how behaving like them will get you ahead is a mystery to me. Perhaps you're just behaving like one of those cool straight white Americans they have in America and using 'white' as a generic complaint.

[Flouncer]

It's a bit unfair to take that out of the context of Danger Man's preceding post, and besides which I think it's a perfectly valid point that you aren't going to get a prominent position in the Tory party unless you are prepared to drop any social allegiances you might hold and conform to a fairly strict idea of Britishness that generally excludes any viewpoint which clashes with the interests of straight, white (and rich) men. The only thing I would change in that statement is adding 'rich' to it. Danger Man was holding Thatcher up as an example of the Tories being progressive when, in fact, she contributed nothing to the cause of feminism and only got where she was by behaving like a man and not giving a toss about the plight of other women. I admit that I didn't express this well at all, but that's what I was getting at.

Douglas Ross MP wants to get tough on Gypsies

In the Meet the MPs interview with Core Politics, Mr Ross was asked: "If you were prime minister for the day, without any repercussions, what would you do?"

He responded: "I would like to see tougher enforcement against Gypsy travellers"

That's his dream policy, that's the one thing he'd do if he could do anything.

Andrew Mitchell on whether we should take Syrian refugees into Europe

The answer to this whole issue is not to recreate Syria in Europe.

Cause they won't arrive somewhere peaceful and prosperous with opportunities and functional institutions and make a better life for themselves. No, they'll drag the rest of us down and turn Europe into a hellhole. That's just what Syrians do.

RACIST SCOTTISH TORIES:

http://thenational.scot/news/16129425.Who___s_all_in_Ruth_Davidson___s_Hall_of_Conservative_Shame_/#comments-anchor

DOUGLAS ROSS: The MP sparked a furore shortly after winning his Westminster seat when he said that his number one priority, if he were prime minister for a day, would be "tougher enforcement against gypsies and travellers". He later described gypsy travellers as a "blight on our community" who had to be "dealt with". It then emerged that he had compared a traveller encampment to a landfill site years earlier while serving as a Moray councillor.

ALASTAIR MAJURY & ROBERT DAVIES: suspended by the party over their online activities. The Stirling councillors were reinstated following diversity training as part of disciplinary action, but Davies has since left the party. He likened black people to cannibals, while Majury, who remains a Tory councillor, dismissed homelessness and food support charities, attacked benefit claimants and made homophobic remarks regarding equal marriage.

NEILL GRAHAM: represents Paisley Northeast and Ralston on Renfrewshire Council, appeared in a leaked BNP membership database. He said the mobile number listed was his, but denied membership.



TODD FERGUSON: Dalry and West Kilbride councillor for North Ayrshire Council, had to apologise to the SNP's Joy Brahim for comments relating to her Dutch nationality.

TREVOR DOUGLAS: of North Lanarkshire Council shared UKIP posts and said Serbia could "go back to selling white kids to slave traders".

ALASTAIR REDMAN: on Argyll and Bute Council, faced pressure as he stood for Westminster in 2014 after sharing a Facebook post by Britain First, which welcomed news of Abu Hamza being convicted of terror charges in the US..."

Keep digging folks...... Lots more out there.
