So Emma Dent Coad and her racist remarks 10:15 - Nov 15 with 31681 views | GlasgowBlue | Haven't seen much discussion on this. I can't help but feel that if a white Tory MP or candidate had me similar remarks about a black candidate from another party then certain people, I won't name them but we all know who they are, would have been all over this story faster than Michael Fallon's hands over a female journalist. Just to recap: Emma Dent Coad, Labour MP for Kensington, called black Tory candidate Shaun Bailey a “token ghetto boy” and “free-loading scumbag” who is “not welcome” in her Kensington constituency. Some good responses to Ms Coad: Women’s Equality Party candidate Nimco Ali “You Emma Dent Coad are a racist and as some who is the sister of a Tory black young man, you disgust me. My brother is a black Tory man and the left have acted like they owned him and I am so angry right now. I got the same BS for standing for WEP. She is a racist and should go.” Shaun Bailey, the victim of the racist remarks “I am shocked and saddened by the hate-filled, racist article written by Labour MP Emma Dent-Coad which has surfaced this afternoon. During my time in politics I have dealt with prejudice and attacks from hard-line groups, including the BNP, but not once have I been labelled a ‘token ghetto boy’. Her use of language, including the caption of ‘keeping it real’, is more akin to that of a white supremacist group than that of an elected politician and she should be ashamed. As someone who was born into a poor family in Ladbroke Grove, I am proud of my charity work helping deprived community groups in the area Ms Dent-Coad now represents. Ms Dent-Coad has a long history of public intimidation. She should publicly apologise for these latest slurs — not just to me but to the wider black community — and the Labour Party should consider her position.” Tory MP Kemi Badenoch “I’m a black conservative. I don’t think every offensive comment is racism, but when I see real prejudice I have to call it out. Emma Dent Coad’s comments were profoundly distressing, and a toxic reminder of the struggle black people face daily in defeating stereotypes. The fact that she made them while an elected councillor is a disgrace. This is why it is still relevant to discuss today. The tragedy is that someone who holds these views is an MP, representing a sizeable black population, make no mistake, this is racism… An assumption that there’s only one way to be black, and anyone who doesn’t conform is a “coconut” an “Uncle Tom” or a race traitor. It is a poisonous belief and destroys the lives of so many children. I once heard a black boy accuse another of “acting white”. Why? Because he wore glasses and liked reading. Imagine what it’s like being in a classroom where everyone thinks like that? Where do such attitudes come from? From “Community leaders” like Ms Dent-Coad, who want to tell us what to think and how to behave. They haven’t given us permission to leave our ghettoes, be Conservative or make friends with posh white people. This was Shaun’s crime. This attitude traps many black children within imaginary boundaries they believe they aren’t allowed to cross. They end up living less than the very best lives they can. I have read Clive Lewis’s awful remarks to Nimko Ali. Patronising and wrong-headed. Denying blacks a basic human right to support a party of their choosing. It’s the attitude I referred to in my conference speech -that you can’t be black and conservative. Emma Dent-Coad did NOT apologise for her offensive remarks, merely for Shaun being upset by them. My message to young black people everywhere is please, please feel free to be who you want to be. Don’t let Labour’s stereotypes and low expectations hold you back and never let them treat you like black sheep who will always follow them.” | |

I said "Yes she should have whip removed or some punishment." Is that "bending over backwards to try and justify racist abuse" This affliction you have is deeply troubling, so please go and get some help.It really is worrying. |
You're always the first person to criticise anyone on this board that is to the right of politics when these nasty racist bigots rear their ugly heads yet when one does it from your party or someone mentions rife antisemitism on the left, you seemingly try and justify it. Can't we all just accept that racism is racism no matter who it's from and it's all disgusting and abhorrent? | | | |

Why is that at all relevant? I don't blindly follow him and agree with everything he does/says. I called him an idiot for supporting Trump last year and I've disagreed with alot of what he has said in the past. I've also said that, as of the latest GE, I don't actually affiliate with any party anymore. I know I'm to the right of centre but I'm not a Tory and certainly not a 'Ukipper' anymore.

The offended police being people who don't let disgusting views go unchallenged and accept 'end of' and 'balls' as valid arguments? Deep down you must know you never actually respond to any points. You either downvote and avoid or completely ignore them. The sad thing is you now have a little group where you can all echo each other and pat each other on the back while ironically calling people snowflakes when you all get annoyed any time anyone dares disagree with you. Then throw in a buzz phrase like 'PC gone mad', a really convenient dismissal so you don't have to answer any points raised. | |

He's a poisonous toad, if ever there was one. Always quick with the insults, then loves playing the victim card when he gets a bit of pushback. Tragic really. | |
