Is Abbott representative of all black women or just uniquely stupid?
Diane Abbott is again back in the news, after remarks made by Tory donor Frank Hester went public.
Hester reportedly said: "It's like trying not to be racist but you see Diane Abbott on the TV and you're just like, I hate, you just want to hate all Black women because she's there, and I don't hate all Black women at all, but I think she should be shot," which although misquoted, has caused Abbott to be 'frightened', releasing a statement which plays the race-card to predictable full effect.
Diane Abbott has always played the race card, often supplementing it with the 'female victim' using them to shut-down any criticism of her, lack of brains or obsession with identity politics. Abbott likes nothing better than to claim that Racism and Misogyny are behind any criticism of her, deflecting from her own painfully thick comments in her time as an MP.
Diane Abbott can't add up.
Abbott, in a now infamous interview on LBC, claimed 10,000 extra Police officers would cost the grand total of £300,000 a year, (£30 each) and when she was challenged on it ran to the press to claim that she was being victimised for being a black woman in a white man's world. Abbott was shadow home secretary at the time.
Diane Abbott believes Jewish people aren't subject to Racism.
Abbott was suspended from the Labour Party for stating that Jewish people weren't the subject of Racism. The MP lost the party whip after writing a letter suggesting Jewish, Irish, Gypsy, Roma and Traveller people had not experienced racism. When it was pointed out to her that those groups were the most victimised in history, she doubled-down on her beliefs claiming that what they faced was just "similar levels of prejudice to people with red hair."
Rather than admitting she was completely ignorant to European history she claimed that she was being picked-on for being a 'black woman'
Diane Abbott claimed BLM member gunned down by black youths from rival gang was shot 'because she stood up for racial justice'
Abbott made another astonishing gaff in 2021 by insisting 'Black Panther of Oxford' Sasha Johnson was shot 'because she stood up for racial justice' - when in reality she was attending a party held by one postcode gang when a rival gang, who were also black, shot the place up as part of a black-on-black turf war. Again, Abbott refused to withdraw her blatantly false claims, suggesting that those who questioned it were themselves racist.
Diane Abbott claimed that a report she hadn't read was "an important review and we should act on it"
On 5 June 2017, during a Sky News interview, Abbott was unable to answer any questions about the Harris report on how to protect London from terror attacks. She insisted that she had read the report, but was unable to recall a single one of the 127 recommendations in it. She was shadow home secretary at the time and had gone onto the programme to answer questions on the report. When questioned on it she simply said "I think it was an important review and we should act on it."
Abbott, who once had a sexual relationship with Jeremy Corbyn (some would say that alone shows just how thick she is) was first Black woman elected to parliament in 1987. Abbott went to Cambridge where she read History (making her comments about Jews even more ignorant). Except for a short period as a reporter for Thames TV, Diane Abbott has spent her life in politics, gaining nothing in the way of knowledge or common sense as a result.
Abbott has cast herself as representative of black women; if that is true it would mean that all black women are enumerate, illiterate, race-baiting morons, which is something that nobody wants to contemplate.
