Starkeys a pompous cretin , amazed there's people on here defending him
Like Enoch powell he's an intelligent man who's all too aware of the impact of his words. Powells speech, days after the assassination of Martin Luther King was designed to inflame and divide without adding to a rational and cogent debate on race relations. He did more than anyone to toxify discussion of imigration and set back race relations for years.
He's an attention seeking nob and was just trying to make yet another pointless and inflammatory statement (like when he characterised Scotland and Ireland as "feeble little countries")
I do hope he realises that's he's now being held up as a hero by racist scumbags up and down the country (who im guessing may be less well disposed to him once they discover he's gay)
