I'm not a * * * * * * but. . . .

INdeed!

Saw her interview yesterday- what a horrid, obnoxious woman! Her excuse is that 'they' were not around when she grew up! I grew up in rural Switzerland- 'they' were not around either, but 'they' are not a 'rpoblem' for me at all.

She is a horror....certainly not someone I would like moving in next door to me. I would have a problem with her for sure.

I had never heard of this woman before - I'm sorry to have heard of her now.

Disgusting.

What a truly awful woman! Quite unbelievable!

Surely she will be arrested under the Race Relations Act? Can she get away with saying that?

No. She would have had to be inciting racial violence. But wasn't she? She was encouraging other thickos to come out with that kind of thing, and who knows where that could lead.

The phrase "I am not a racialist, but..." is a dead give-away.

However: when did the word 'negro' become insulting? Surely it is in the same list as 'caucasian', to which I happily answer..., or Semite, Indian, Asian etc. etc.

She told the truth about her reactions - I don't think she should be prosecuted for that. Encouraging racial violence? I don't think so - but what would be more liable to be prosecuted would be inciting racial violence - and I donlt think they would be able to make that stick.

On what level did she think someone in the public eye could get away with saying such things. Outrageous for some low life to say it but she must be short of a few brain cells to think she could get away with it.

She said " racist" not " racialist, feetle, and I believe in the contexxt "negro" and "negroid features" are pretty outrageous.

I wouldn't be surprised if there were several UKIP politicians with such bigoted views (remember "Bongo bongo land", "poofters" and "ting tongs").

I don't think such a remark would be deemed to be a criminal offence, and personally I think it would be unwise to treat it as such. The humiliation of being removed as candidates and of having their disgusting and ridiculous comments broadcast so that all could see their stupidity, is surely much more effective than making martyrs of them?

I'd like to say something erudite here but all I can think of is 'thick bitch'!

That certainly sums her up nicely Teetime!

Did anyone see the comedian Reginald something or other who is on have I got news for you? Returning to the southern US ? I'm a great fan of him and that programme.I was stunned that he was so apprehensive to be greeted by locals on his return. He said he was glad he had the camera men with him. I do think the US is racist alongside the UK but I didn't realise how badly. I've not been back to the US for 10 years or more.

Reginald D Hunter. Great programme! He was accused of being racist for using the forbidden word so he now includes it in the titles of his shows.

I thought black people felt it was ok to use the 'n' word when describing themselves or another black person.

I'm sure I've seen/read that in the media.
