I thought we would eventually see this race-baiter come out, but I didn’t expect it to be even before the announcement of Badenoch’s election was made.
When she said that the Tory party donor that made those comments about Diane Abbott should be excused.
She defied the party line at the time and called out the racist language used. If I remember right, her complaint was with the media talking about it for weeks, not dismissing the comments.
As per usual she’s tempting to rewrite history on that one. She’s now said that she forgives him and that everyone should move on. Telling everyone to move on from problematic things she or her party have done seems to be her only tactic, I don’t believe it’s going to work however.
