Racism “scandal” at the Palace.
What a completely over the top reaction in a desperate attempt to cow tow to the media and the respective “groups” that specialise in being offended.
An elderly “lady in waiting” of 83 years of age who has served in this non paid roll for 50-60 years gets pilloried and tossed to the wolves.
Her offence, asking a black lady during polite conversation making.....”what country are you from?”
Said black lady takes immediate offence and it’s then all over the media.
This is a disgrace in my opinion, Lady Hussey who perpetrated his heinous crime had given lifelong service at no charge to the Queen and Royal Family and yet Prince Baldy Bonce couldn’t fire her fast enough!
My own mother is 84, it’s just the sort of thing she could easily come out with when making conversation with someone of a different race who she didn’t know.
Why do some people take such offence, why not just laugh it off and say.....”actually dear I’m from Oxford, born and bred” and tell the other person not to worry about the faux pas?
On my one visit to America I constantly got asked where in Australia I came from......a possibly appalling accusation to make to an Englishman but I just laughed it off and told each person proudly that I was English.
A lot of this sort of stuff is generational, my mum and her ilk will soon be all gone and this sort of stuff will naturally die out anyway.
Nobody seems to give a toss about the old dear who has given over 50 years of free service ( obviously I get it that she was privileged which allowed this ) and how she must be feeling.
As for the Royals, it’s only a couple of years since they buried old “slitty eyes” Philip.
Never any suggestions he was going to be divorced and thrown out for far greater crimes of racism.
William is such a wet wipe.
