Why is the Labour party full of racists?

I was about to say the only racist I've come across in the Labour Party is Diane Abbott!

I don't really think the rest is racist, more to do with Sugars high profile and large donations.

Diane Abbott is very likely the most racist MP in Parliament
however, I don't know if any other labour MPs are racists, I wouldn't say it's evident

Diane Abbott is very likely the most racist MP in Parliament, if not, the only "proud" racist
however, I don't know if any other labour MPs are racists, I wouldn't say it's evident

Their own councillors are saying otherwise. THIER OWN PARTY MEMBERS.

well now that you mention it, there might be a consensus of anti-white racism, evidently in the school systems, e.g. the recent news story about how poor white children are being disfavoured in favour of other races for politically correct reasons, but I don't know enough to make a judgement on that - if people like the labour party desire state multiculturalism (or more specifically affirmative action), which is definitionally racist in a lot of respects, then it's still rather likely, and diane abott is probably all over that kind of thing

So we should just leave it there and not scratch below the surface? Racism is rife within the Labour party. Their own MP's stirred up racial tensions with Muslims. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/election-2010/7678172/General-Election-2010-Immigration-minister-Phil-Woolas-accused-of-inflaming-racial-tensions-in-seat.html

actually I'm not sure that's only labour, that's probably still condoned by the conservatives seeing as this mindset of policy is still in the air in these last 4 years, maybe that's simply the damage they did. in terms of the school policies, I, again, can't completely judge if that's councils or that's based on a national law approach

Clearly not. The evidence is there when you start to dig.

On the plus side at least you do have to dig unlike with the conservatives and UKIP.

Or could it be that they try and cover it up, which makes it far, far worse because they are not open with the electorate?

Being involved in the Labour party all I can say is I've not come across it myself nor have my colleagues. Hopefully as us youngsters rise up the ranks it will stop.

I see the cover up is extended throughout all levels of the party. Why support a party that allows Diana Abbott to discriminate against whites? Why support a party which MP has stirred racial tensions against Muslims (Phil Woolas)? Why support a party that discriminates against Muslims? Why support a party that is supported by many members of the BNP? I could go on

Your own councillors are calling out on the institutional racism.

Well clearly its not supported by supporters of the BNP as they support the BNP

Diane abbots a knob but you can't judge a party by one person.

My experience with Birmingham labour party was very inclusive towards Muslims.

Anyway what do you suggest - vote for sexist and racist conservatives, ukip or respect, sexist lib dems, or wasted vote barmy greens?

The only way to enact change is to get involved and bring these issues up with the party in question.

My apologies. I meant that a Yougov report reveals that over half of BNP voters are former Labour supporters.

You can judge a part by its prominent leaders. I'm sorry but that's the fact. She is very much in the limelight and she's a racist. If the Labour party had any sense of respect they would of removed her straight away, Just like Bloom and UKIP. But because she is still allowed to run riot, it just backs up my point that the party is institutionally racist because they refuse to deal with her.

I guess Birmingham would be inclusive to Muslims, but not so whites, or Europeans. I would also like to see the race statistics of the Birmingham councillors, that might prove interesting.

I'm not going to get involved in a membership of any party which is racist. No thank you. I don't represent racists, and I certainly don't want to be around them.

So its less racist now as they don't support labour any more?

Well didn't she recently get demoted?


I'm white! They were perfectly inclusive to whites too! My mp was white and then Asian then white again (not the same person having weird race changes I hasten to add). Not sure about outside my constituency.

So you have a choice between lib dem and green, who you going to go for?

No, labour is a breeding ground for racists. Once they are indoctrinated they go off and join the BNP.

"demoted", yes! And not kicked out! Any other party would kick her out for clearly being a discriminatory bigot. They kicked Phil Woolas out for inciting racial tensions (he is white) but when a black woman does the same, its just a "demotion". Racism.
