The point is that the left on this very thread are twisting and spinning some innocuous phrase to make out that the phrase is racist. To say the least, that is being very economical with the truth. We shouldn't be surprised though, the left constantly does this on practically every topic. However, most people outside of the cult that is the left, have more sense than to be taken in by the nonsense.

How much longer though? Why is she in the Conservative party, she opposes most of what they do.
But of course you are just defecting from the fact that the Mail's words are being spun to make it some left wing political propaganda stick.
I'm blinkered and risible am I - isn't that personal abuse, that is supposedly banned - well for some of us anyway.

Again, all you do is try to deflect from the ridiculous distortion of the Mail's article. [Soubry has about as much in common with Rees Mogg than you and I do.]

No one’s free speech is being taken away, Paperchase made a commercial decision to link up with the Mail. Hope not Hate have used the potential threat of commercial pressure to make Paperchase re-evaluate the value of link up with the Daily Mail . Basically it comes down to whether the commercial value of a deal with The Daily Mail is greater than the loss of revenue from a potential boycott, whether sales to Mail readers is worth risking the loss of revenue from it’s current customer base. Hope not Hate use the threat of individual consumer action to bring about this pressure, it’s my right not to buy goods from companies whose stance does not fit with mine. The Daily Mail are free to continue with the editorial stance they do which they will, what ever lefty liberals like me might think the Sun and the Mail are the two largest newspapers in the UK so reflect the views of a lot of people in this country they are free not to shop at Paperchase if they choose.
