The Elephant in The Room: The Tories are Doing Diversity while the Left just talks about it
suzannemoore.substack.com
The elephant isn’t just in the room. It is trumpeting loudly but it is greeted with bemusement, denial, or polite silence. I am talking about the Tory leadership race which is full of what the renowned fox-killer now apparently calls “brown” people and those other odd chaps, called women. The Tories can always claim the first ethnic minority PM in Disraeli who was Jewish but they don’t make a song and dance about it.

    Ah yeah Suzanne Moore. One of the Guardian columnists huffing their own farts and jotting down bullshit from a Tuscan villa.

    Love how she sets herself up as some brave, stubborn champions asking the awkward questions yet can't resist a chance to slander Corbyn and his supporters as definately not feminists. She's one of those Guardian writers/readers for whom the disadvantaged and oppressed exist only to fulfill their bizzare Lady Bountifull charity wank fantasies.

    Good to see her proving that identity politics separate from class analysis is worse than useless. By her metric the best candidate for the Tories would be Priti Patel a woman so fucking evil she'd napalm refugees in the channel if she could.

    Ash Sarkar has been on a fucking roll with these articles in the last two days. Highly recommend her twitter if you want to follow the shitfest that is Tory-internal politics.
