It is nothing to do with colour.It is making fun of the African name Kwasi and seeing what unpleasant names it can be turned into.If the man was called Ian or Stephen then I believe no attempt would be made to do this. It is a foreign name therefore, to some, a ‘funny’ one.
I do not believe this childish name calling to be fine for anyone, and certainly not ‘fair game’ simply because they are a politician.I sometimes wonder how far the antipathy towards MP’s will go, they already receive sacks of hate mail and hate email.
Criticism, yes of course, satire, yes too, but not personal insults or name calling.Would anyone consider it satire to have Mr Starmer called ‘Khazi Keir’ I wonder, the minute he did something that was disagreed with?
HIGNFY used to be really amusing and grown up, but not for a long time.
