"Is it extremist to call for a politician to be shot for her race?" Framing this as a question should be a hate-crime in its own right. Recent debates have betrayed a very unhealthy bias on Ian Dale's show.
In extremist week where the argument is put against protestors, it’s a legitimate question on what is ever considered extremism? Because it seems the Tories are able to pick and choose.

Racism will not go away, as unfortunately it's a choice of the individual. IMO it needs to be treated like a crime. Each time someone is accused of racism it should be treated like any other serious crime and it should be investigated and the person arrested.
The investigative journalist is bang on: party political donations are corrupt and should be abolished. I believe the best system is public funded party donations. Every British citizen can donate up to £1 per anum to a political party of their choice. It removes the influence of the super wealthy and instead creates an influential electorate.
The trade unions, whose members are typically made up of workers from average backgrounds, who elect the leadership of those unions. Also when you join a union, or at least in my case, you have a choice of whether or not you want money from your subscriptions to go to the Labour Party, so to try and compare it to extremely wealthy individual donors who just so happen to receive massive government contracts is ridiculous.

Conservative cabinet - the most diverse bunch of millionaires in the world.
The investigative journalist is bang on: party political donations are corrupt and should be abolished.
I believe the best system is public funded party donations. Every British citizen can donate up to £1 per anum to a political party of their choice. It removes the influence of the super wealthy and instead creates an influential electorate.
They werent placed in those positions? Not even the tories wanted rishi where he is!!!!
Dale is an embarrassment. He loves to diflect and dilute
## Leave Diane Abbott alone!!
State funding - least bad option. Agreed, let's do it!
The trade unions, whose members are typically made up of workers from average backgrounds, who elect the leadership of those unions. Also when you join a union, or at least in my case, you have a choice of whether or not you want money from your subscriptions to go to the Labour Party, so to try and compare it to extremely wealthy individual donors who just so happen to receive massive government contracts is ridiculous.
This is not me being racist...I just cant stand Diane Abbott and I have no idea how she is in the position she is in. She should have gone with Corbin
She’s not in the Labour Party she’s an independent
@@Dazzerthegooner666 she is a member of the labour party
@@FionaHedges she has had her whip suspended, though I should have specified she is not a labour MP currently despite being a member ( which any one of the general public can be)
Kudos to the lady in the white jumper....Quotas don't cut it
Give the money back..is that all Labour are concerned about...🤔
