She’s persona non grata
to the two-tier mob,
she just doesn’t matter;
yes, “She should be shot”,
is what that man said,
but that’s mighty fine
in Two-Tier’s head;
no, justice ain’t blind
for those two-tier racists,
see, she’s the wrong colour,
her face just ain’t English;
and her friendship with that fellow
called J.C, a socialist,
is quite beyond the pale,
it makes Two-Tiers pissed,
and cry into his ale.

At the risk of it's being completely worn out and ending up in the knackers yard, or even being deleted from the Oxford English Dictionary altogether, I'd just like to say "Thanks""Thanks""Thanks""Thanks""Thanks""Thanks""Thanks""Thanks""Thanks"
for your likes and comments💗

In all fairness, they do say that if one uses a word too much it tends to lose its meaning...perhaps we should draw up a list of proscribed words, such as:
genocide, lawlessness, arson, homelessness, hunger, rape, murder, theft...you know the kind of thing...words that have had the living daylights kicked out of them over the last few years...now rendered somewhat meaningless, when you think about it! 😑
Perhaps "Racist" seems so overused because there are so many people and actions that defy any other term but racist.

I've seen the interview Steve; a distressing story which does not surprise me one bit, given the treatment meted out to many other members.
Kier Starmer's treatment of Diane Abbott has been appalling and, at the very least, failed to understand the impact that it would have on her as a woman of colour or the message that it was sending to black people and black women in particular.
Frank Hester's comments were overtly and unconscionably racist.
If you have not already seen it, then I would recommend that you watch Victoria Derbyshire interview with Diane, broadcast a few days ago.

Thanks for your comment MC.
I'd be interested then, to know what word you WOULD use in order to describe a mentality which seeks to justify denying a person's human and civic rights, on the grounds of that person's colour or race?
...oh and what do you imagine would have been the reaction by the British media, if such a suggestion (of shooting ) had been made with regards to say, a Jewish person?
"Racist" - arguably the most over-used (and partially used) word in the English language today.
