Wow, that’s...creepy. And while it’s clearly her, the signiature says ‘Taylor Smith’, doesn’t it? Are they worried she’ll sue them too?

Haha, I think we’re all losing points all over the place here. But yes, I’m stopping short of watching the video too, so at least we have that :)

He’s a thing because people who claim not to care about him click on articles with his name in the title in order to talk about him.

I’m glad to see more people analysing the kind of sentiment found in these areas. Some people there are geniunely racist, but some have sadly had concerns about immigration manipulated hugely by the Tories who will now stab them in the back. A lot of middle class people in London (who are understandably angry) know…

Yeah and then the writer and other commenters came back with ‘well whatever it’s still offensive’. Fair enough if people who knew the lyric were still offended, but you can’t deny it changes the impact of the caption enormously.

I used to hate Gazpacho until I lived in the south of Spain for a while... Not saying you’d change your mind, but the right tomatoes definitely help. I miss Gazpacho.

His twitter feed is one of the few things I ever literally ‘LOL’ at on the internet. Pretty much ever day.

Well ok. But there is absolutely no debating the fact that men are more likely to be murdered than women (70%+ in the UK), so I still don’t really see your point. But I’d like to just agree to disagree because I don’t really want to get into an discussion about this right now. RIP Jo

What evidence do you have that he was motivated by her gender? Her death is a tragedy, and it seems likely this man attacked her because of her work supporting immigrants and political convictions. Your statement that no-one would attack a male politician is demonstrably untrue.

“Hi Naomi,

The gushing over the Royal Family from this website always makes me a little uneasy... I’m British and don’t hate the Royals either, but they live lifestyles of unimaginable opulence for no other reason than inherited privilege. Meanwhile we are seeing growing child poverty in the UK.

I’m really glad someone is saying this. Perhaps this is controversial, but I really don’t think there should be regulations against people having their feelings hurt by posters. Especially when there are so many more pressing issues to address.

Apparently anyone with a Spanish-sounding surname is now considered a minority. I don’t know how long it will take people to realise there are millions of white people in Latin America.

Iran has many different ethnic groups. Some would appear white and possibly call themselves white, others not, in my experience.

That’s an option, but it does often seem that people are harangued into making these insincere apologies, even if not literally forced. I can imagine a toss up for some people between giving a non-apology which will anger people, or not apologising at all and still pissing people off.

That is fair. I think wording is important in cases like this.

I was listening to a podcast with a comedian today, who’s been accused of causing offence with his jokes on several occasions. Each time he’s replied with some variation of ‘I’m sorry if you were offended’. He said that this is because he’s not sorry he made the jokes, but is sorry if it genuinely upset anyone. I…

Oh come on...Woody Allen may or may not be a pervert, but you can hardly form an opinion about that based on a photo of him hugging his children.

Strangely mine was both “oh my god I’m so unaccomplished” and simultaneously “she doesn’t look 25". However, I didn’t actually believe she was lying about her age, I just thought she looked older than she really is. I didn’t think people lied about their ages now...how does anyone think they’ll get away with that in…

Yeah, I’d say she’s not ‘picking a fight with him’ she’s attacking him with a vile stream of racist abuse. People here seem to just be rolling their eyes. Just went on her twitter and its a shockingly prolonged and unapologetic racist attack the likes of which you very rarely see from such public figures.
