Abbott is black and female…so naturally everything she says is stupid

The Left can’t handle the truth…Diane Abbott is a disaster waiting to happen….even her boss knows it which is why she was pulled from public appearances.

Thus her boss must be racist and sexist…despite having Diane on his pillion so many years ago on their tour of Eastern Europe…lol.

Diane Abbott expects to be Home Secretary, one of the most important and powerful jobs in government.  She needs to be on top of her brief, be able to respond to and tackle unexpected crises on the fly, and master the enormous amounts of information and detail that crosses her desk every day.  Do Abbott’s media performances inspire us with confidence that she could handle a rapidly unfolding terrorist attack or the complex reformation of the police, the prison service or the legal system ?  No.  This stuff matters, it’s not some student game of posturing about equality and social justice…it’s peoples’ lives and livings….that’s why the Osborne tweeted joke is in fact a deadly serious comment…what it isn’t is racism or sexism…however the below is…inverse racism and sexism…the usual Lefty playing the race card or any other card rather than engage in the actual argument.

From the New Statesman:

All politicians expect criticism. But has the treatment of Diane Abbott crossed a line?

Is the Conservative and media mockery of Jeremy Corbyn’s close ally motivated by racism and sexism – or part of the rough and tumble of politics?

There is simple press cynicism at play here, but also “overt or dogwhistle racist coverage” underpinning the media’s obsession with lampooning Abbott, as one insider close to Jeremy Corbyn’s inner circle puts it. “Everything Diane does is amplified a hundred times more than anyone else because of that. No one should forget that.”

We look at Boris Johnson flounder at a press conference, and we laugh because he looks like a fool. We watch Theresa May squirm during an interview about her manifesto unravelling, and we laugh because she is being caught out.

The difference is – when we see Diane Abbott make a mistake, we laugh because that’s what we expect.

Yep…we laugh because we expect her to cock-up….because she does…nothing to do with skin colour or having a heaving bosom.

As for Boris…he is savagely torn into all the time…remember the BBC’s Mair calling him a ‘nasty piece of work’?   He gets attacked just because of who he is and how he presents himself and the comments he makes, as does Trump.  Look at how the BBC et al reacted to his comment about the EU and those throughout history who wanted to unite Europe under one banner…he was  vilified for apparently ‘comparing the EU to the Nazis’.  Rubbish of course but OK because it is Boris who supported Leave.

And was not Corbyn monstered for his own cock-up on Woman’s Hour recently as he failed to remember the cost of his flagship childcare policy?  Didn’t realise Corbyn was actually black and a woman.

Oh yes…let’s not forget…can’t call Osborne a racist or a sexist for his criticism of Abbott…..seems quite at home with a black female…..and that’s not white power…it’s white powder…..
