I don't see why publishing Taki, as all Spectator editors have done going back to the 1970s, means he agrees with him. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/mayor/boris-says-sorry-over-blacks-have-lower-iqs-article-in-the-spectator-6630340.htmlPolitical Refugee from the Global Villagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523068770529814044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891289711377156224.post-24881392752735648302019-06-26T13:37:24.845+03:002019-06-26T13:37:24.845+03:00That was not a racist remark by Boris but an innoc...That was not a racist remark by Boris but an innocent and funny joke.<br />(Even when Enoch Powell famously used the word back in 1968 it was not in any way malicious but on the contrary affectionate.)Political Refugee from the Global Villagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523068770529814044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891289711377156224.post-35195859061769470522019-06-26T04:09:17.597+03:002019-06-26T04:09:17.597+03:00A party reaches a point where it has sold out so m...<em>A party reaches a point where it has sold out so much that it’s just an empty vessel (the only thing many Tories are interested in conserving nowadays is the Conservative Party</em><br /><br />That seems to sum it up pretty well.<br /><br />It seems rather strange to believe that a man who clearly has no morals and no ethics, a man who is a social liberal (social liberals being the very people who trashed British society), a man who seems very very likely to preside over a massive increase in Third World immigration, is somehow going to be the saviour of the nation.<br /><br />This is a man whose entire life and career provide overwhelming evidence that he cannot be trusted.dfordoomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02306293859869179118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891289711377156224.post-1286508553149535322019-06-25T18:24:55.798+03:002019-06-25T18:24:55.798+03:00Not racist at all.

All that matters is they get a leader who they think can, almost by a miracle, push that plane through the crisis and land it with a few scratches on the other side – because the alternative, from the look of the polls, is certain destruction.<br /><br />'Personally, I’m not sure I care. A party reaches a point where it has sold out so much that it’s just an empty vessel (the only thing many Tories are interested in conserving nowadays is the Conservative Party). But I do care about Brexit, for the sake of the project, for the dignity of the country – revoking Article 50 would look ridiculous – and for a democracy tested and battered by one damn thing after another.'<br />Timothy Stanley in the Telegraph today.Political Refugee from the Global Villagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523068770529814044noreply@blogger.com
