"How do black people feel? How do brown people feel? How do cripples feel? How do fat people feel?"

Me too, these feckers need to start getting the message, they just think they can say whatever repulsive things they like and then cry woke snowflakes when people complain . I despise them

She has always been an offensive arsehole - why are people trying to excuse it now? It’s not like she was a pleasant person in interviews previously.

Telling stories about farting and wanking off men has always been her ‘thing’.

I think this could be true.

Erm no, it’s because she was very racist.

Then she has had dementia for years. She’s always been offensive

Sadly it is fluffy day time TV smoothing things over was probably for the best.

I think she has dementia. Her agents need to be looking out for her.

That is how they have to deal with her I think. It’s a shame as I would like to see someone verbally take her apart and expose her for the nasty racist bigot that she is

Yep she just smoothed everything over for mm to feel more comfortable even though mm knew exactly what she had done and her motives for doing so

'Cult of woke' 🙄

Same

'Useful idiot' who's so right on with her love of the boat people has managed to make herself unpopular with both sides. Lol.

This is the trouble with wokeism - you have to keep up with what's in and what's out.

Though to be honest even if you don't subscribe to the cult of woke what she said to Andi Peters was beyond the pale and unacceptable even to those who are not woke at all.
I mean for goodness sake, I hate woke but not even I would say that. It's grossly offensive ffs.

I bet even Farage himself was cringing with embarrassment.

Those saying she may be ND - as someone who is ND myself I have managed to avoid deliberately being racist to someone just to get attention

Just shows I guess that all the knowledge in the world can’t stop someone being a total arsehole

Unfortunately I have had many many people like her in my life, I am mixed heritage but some family members are very similar as well as a job which constantly put me in proximity with these colonial types. They are vile, and they try to soften it with a laugh and a smile or feigned innocence.
all of them ‘posh’, many of them ‘christian’.
colonialism still walks among us

But she doesn't have to be like this. She's got an impressive knowledge of Charles Dickens and Victorian Britain and women in history, so why the hell she goes onto shows and tells dirty stories and swears her head off is beyond me. It's really very sad that she seems over the years to have re-adapted herself for a popular culture that's aimed at the LCD and thrives on shock and controversy. She wasn't like this years ago, I remember her.

Old dogs and new tricks springs to mind. She's made a living off being controversial. If she wasn't who she was, she would be called a grifter.

They would of course have expected something but usually a slightly cringeworthy comment about farts or knickers. I doubt they'd have expected her to ask a black man 'what are you'. Imo Peters should've been firmer with her and said politely 'it is really inappropriate to ask someone that' intead of all the giggling and enabling.

Until people call her out at the time and let her know firmly and clearly she is being absolutely offensive she'll never change.

They should have expected something shocking as she likes running her mouth.

Let me tell you something

It really is not me, that is not making sense.

You aren't making any sense. The producers are not going to invite her on and then tell her off on live air are they. They expected this from here. Anyway im not going in circles with you.

Because if you manage to follow the thread, there was a discussion about why Andi's employers had not said something to castigate her and support their employee, to show support, to end the silence that we were referring to

So I said 'why havent his employers said something' or WTTE, on the back of that conversation. You then piped up and said, 'oh but they did, in his ear piece'

That is clearly not what the conversation was about. Follow the thread properly.

Do you think I dont know that? She assumed he had a "white daddy" you shouldn't assume. We could all XYZ 🙄🙄

im not misunderstanding why would the producers do that? They were expecting her to say such things...... do you get MY point.

They spoke to Andi on his ear piece and said 'Im so sorry you should not have to be exposed to this while working and we will protect you'?

Surely you're not misunderstanding what Ive written?

I saying his employers should have issued a statement after the event PUBLICLY to express disapproval and criticise MM?

Not muttering in his ear piece to shut her up because its bad TV for them
