Can't say I blame her. Two MP's have been murdered in the recent past. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/diane-abbott-frank-hester-met-police-tory-b2511427.htmlDiane Abbott reports Tory donor Frank Hester to police ‘over racist comments that she ‘should be shot’ Exclusive: MP reports businessman to police over ‘frightening’ comments – but two ministers and No10 refuse to call them racist despite outrage of senior Conservatives Diane Abbott has reported the Conservative Party’s biggest ever donor to the policeafter he was alleged to have said the MP “should be shot”,The Independent can reveal. The MP filed a complaint with the Metropolitan Police’s parliamentary liaison and investigations team after Frank Hester, who donated £10m to the Tories last year, allegedly made a series of incendiary comments about her, including that she made him “want to hate all Black women”. It came as a Tory row erupted over the furore, with minister Kemi Badenoch breaking ranks with Rishi Sunak to describe Mr Hester’s alleged remarks as "racist”. Former Conservative leader William Hague and ex-chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng also used the same language to condemn the businessman’s comments – despite Downing Street repeatedly refusing to label them as racist. ... |

I feel some real next level whataboutery, UK(RIP)-style, incoming shortly. I actually consider the transparent racism and the implicit threat of violence to be two separate things, which should be dealt with separately. It's not often the likes of Kwarteng and Badenoch get something right, so credit where it's due. Starmer could be firmer, but let's face it he's a blancmange, so we can't expect anything else.

Why didn't she report him five years ago, which was when he actually made these comments?
After this much delay, somebody less charitable than me might suspect she might be trying to jump on some kind of bandwagon here. Everybody loves a victim, don't they?

When did the comments first become generally known about though?In particular when did DA find out? |

As long as Diane Abbott is paying tax she can report anyone to the police if she's threatened which she was. Call her a dumbfuck which she gets daily reminders of that she is anyway and rightfully so, but mentioning her race is a bit much. |

The idea that is somehow put her in danger is what is snowflake bollocks. She might be safer if she wasnt such a racist herself. |

It's not rocket science. Yes she's a stinking hypocrite too. The problem should have been resolved 5 years ago. A racist person of any race should be reported. |

Racism isn't a non issue. Taxes aren't paid for public services so police can just be vegetables when crimes are committed. Will have to agree to disagree with you there. |

It makes zero difference whether he is racist or not. Nothing came of that conversation and it obviously was not a serious threat. How about the police deal with actual crime, rather than chasing after mean words said 5 years ago? |

No, its clearly not an issue since nothing happened in the five years that have passed since it happened. And I fail to see how you think NOT reporting this to the cops is a waste of tax money, while the police hunting mean words from half a decade ago is totally not wasting time and money? |

Diane Abbott is one of if not the dumbest politician alive and she should have dealt with the problem five years ago, but if she wants to report the issue now then that's her right as a taxpayer, the police can say fuck off if they want. Mean words to a black person is very different to what you think mean words are. |
