When
the Conservative MP, Anne Marie Morris, said that a no-deal Brexit is a “nigger in the woodpile”, she offered Europhiles a
loaded weapon with which to shoot her. This means that instead of
being truthful and saying that they're really against her pro-Brexit
position, they can instead - and rather predictably - accuse her of
being a “racist”. Indeed the fiercely pro-EU Metro, for
one, has a problem with distinguishing news pieces from opinion
pieces when it tells us that “nigger in the woodpile” is a
“disturbing, outdated and extremely offensive term”. How pious and over-the-top is that?
Anne
Marie Morris - MP for Newton Abbott - has been suspended from the
Conservative Party.
Prime
Minister Theresa May (sounding like a very-pale-blue version of
Private Eye's Dave Spart) said:
“I
was shocked to hear of these remarks, which are completely
unacceptable. I immediately asked the chief whip to suspend the party
whip.
“Language
like this has absolutely no place in politics or in today’s
society.”
The
thing is that if PM May hadn't said all that, then she too will be
accused of racism. Or, at the least, she'll be accused of “supporting
racism”. Yes, the Left rules and runs the Culture Show; they just
don't run the House of Commons and the economy... yet.
Another
Conservative spokesman got in on this anti-racist act and
said:
“We
are aware of these reports, this kind of language is completely
unacceptable, and we are urgently investigating.”
Then
again, Anne Marie Morris has apologised. She said:
“The
comment was totally unintentional. I apologise unreservedly for any
offence caused.”
I
believe her. But that won't be enough for anti-racist puritans and
purists. They want blood. Especially since Morris is also a Eurosceptic
on this matter. That means that they can kill two birds with one
stone.
So
is the source of this fake outrage really about Morris's
position on Brexit? After all, besides using the once-common English
phrase “nigger in the woodpile”, she also said that “just 7% of
financial services in the UK would be affected by Brexit”. Was that
the real sin and not her ostensible racism?
Morris
went on to say:
“Now
I’m sure there will be many who’ll challenge that, but my
response and my request is look at the detail, it isn’t all doom
and gloom.”
Metro informs us - if indirectly - that all “Tories” and Brexiteers
are racist with the words “none of her fellow panelists reacted”.
They didn't react to the phrase because it belongs to the English
language and it's not racist.
The
fact is that the phrase “nigger in the woodpile” isn't racist.
It's part of the English language. Using the word “nigger” can
indeed be racist; though even then it depends. After all, blacks are
allowed to use the word “nigger” without white middle-class
leftwingers even raising an eyebrow. Then again, blacks and Muslims
are allowed to form rape gangs, sell drugs, kill, indulge in FGM,
etc. without many of the politically-correct Left raising an eyebrow. That's anti-racism, folks!
The
problem is that because the Culture Show (if not also the Economics Show) is run by the Left, then it's not
surprising that Theresa May has jumped on this particular anti-racist
bandwagon. Nonetheless, she'll never be
more-anti-racist-than-thou when it comes to the
politically-correct Left. Indeed leftwingers are eternally in
competition with one-another in this perverse and pious I'm-more-anti-racist-than-thou
competition.
This
will eventually lead to anti-racists consuming each other. Or let's hope so.
