She was interviewed as part of a Channel 4 programme last week, so guess that's where the quote comes from. Goodness knows what firefighters must think.

Mrs Lawrence ought to be really taken to task over these deplorable comments and not allow her appalling sentiments to just disappear into the high-pitched briny without a hint of ordure.She should be ashamed of herself.

It's not "as bad as racism".

It's just racism.

Seemingly that's now an acceptable position e.g. diversity really only means less white people in practice. Put a black/asian person on the BBC with the wrong view and they will also be labelled a racist, an uncle tom or whatever. Look what they did to Ben Habib just because he is in the Brexit party.

If white "liberals" really want to push the post colonial guilt narrative that all white people are inherently racist then this is the inevitable result you will get.

I've no doubt she believes what she is saying.

I'm sure someone on the BBS would try, although unsurprisingly, there was no thread on it the last time I glanced.

I recommend people have a long hard look at this and then give their opinion on Lawrences comment.

She is disgusting! I'm ashamed and angry at her!
Look at the video of the size of that fire and she thinks fire fighters would have gone in because they were white!
Shocking!

Here you are,
