[quote]In today's Britain it appears that Boris Johnson is absolutely fair game for any criticism, regardless how vile, on account of his maleness, whiteness, age bracket and privileged background. 
Scum of the earth to your everyday Guardian reader.
All of the 'tolerant' left's bêtes noires rolled into one.

However, what makes Priti Patel's case interesting, is that the self same people who were gratified by our Prime Minister's recent hospitalisation, are the self same people who would ordinarily be howling from the rooftops, should a female politician of an ethnic minority background be treated to such frenzied critique, for having the temerity to say the word 'sorry'.

But not on this occasion?

Had she not said sorry, the line would be "WHY DIDN'T SHE SAY SORRY?!"
Now that she has said sorry, the line is "SHE DOESN'T MEAN IT!!

Talk about a no win situation.

(Whispers) She wears the wrong coloured rosette, you see...
Identity politics is off the table under such circumstances, you see...

That is the problem at hand. 
Tolerance that extends to only those whom you revere or agree with is,  in fact, intolerance in the first degree (wasn't that a Bananarama song?)

As for those forum members who are seemingly happy to casually divulge a primal desire to inflict physical violence upon female Indian immigrants, I say whilst I admire your flagrant and unabashed honesty, I can't help but ponder whether such biting invective would be used when opining on prominent females from elsewhere on the political spectrum.
I suspect I already know the answer to that one...[/quote]

Tim, if you search this forum you will find examples of me being equally rude about Diane Abbot, Theresa May, Boris Johnson, Jeremy Corbyn, Esther McVey and the liberal woman whose name escapes me.

I commented on her statement. Just her statement. Nothing else. Not her personality, looks, clothing,  politics, race, nothing. Just the statement. 
 
Anything else is just your imagination.[/quote]

Interesting to observe in this craven (supposedly enlightened) society that we reside in, that every prominent woman of colour seems to be perpetually off limits as far as public condemnation (Diane Abbott anybody?) is concerned, with one notable exception. How very curious... Summarised beautifully here by Brendan O'Neill... www.spiked-online.com/2020/04/12/patel-b...g-is-out-of-control/ She deserves everything that she gets. We have had female medical officers at the meetings (Jenny Harries amongst others). Some people were even wishing death on Boris Johnson the other day. Probably because he is a black woman.

I called her a cow because her apology was not an apology, and it was delivered in a sarcastic tone.
