    Heres her quote with regards grooming : “Those abused girls in Rotherham and elsewhere just need to shut their mouths. For the good of diversity.” and another with regards Isreal : The message said said the US had “plenty of land” and that the move would restore peace to the Middle East go ahead and defend both racist comments.

    Perhaps Mr perfect , if you had have members of your family targeted by a grooming gang and the police ,social workers did nothing, instead did everything to deny it exisisted , then this Elected MP told the famileies and girls to shut up to protect racial harmony , you may just may understand my hatred of this women .

    Whatever I might think of the opinions of Naz Shah, she never said that. She certainly liked it and retweeted it after it appeared on a parody account of Owen Jones. And then minutes later she deleted the retweet. She has made some other obnoxious comments about other things but that particular one can't be laid at her door.

    Ah , so that makes it all OK then ?. She retweeted it because that 's what she thinks ,or what she agree's with .

    Who said it makes everything OK? You were to one to quote her incorrectly and it simply wasn't true. It you want to quote people, by all means do so but make sure it's a correct quote and not some urban myth.

    Sorry to hear about that but do a bit of research into that tweet and you'll soon see the truth.

    Let's go back to your original quote when you quoted her as having said it. Your original quote just wasn't true.

    I'm not getting embroilled into an argument over a deeply personal issue . To call everyone " the usual racist " is disengenuous, the fact was she re-tweeted it , then realised the mistake and quickly removed it .

    The grooming comment is enough it was a shocking quote, if Naz retweeted it that would suggest to most she agreed with the content of the original tweet, especially when she deleted it minutes later as you posted.

    She is in a seat that saw the constituency elect George Galloway.

    Democracy gives everyone a vote, even if you are thick as pig shit.

    So it's ok to call those people who vote for those you don't like in General Elections, 'thick as pig shit'. But if you dare to suggest that many who voted for Brexit didn't understand the implications of what they voted for, you are a pie in the sky, liberal elitist who's out of touch with the views of ordinary people.

    Interesting double standard.

    Do you want to point me to where I said that or are you just making it up?

    The word I used was democracy too, not general elections. Referendums are a form of democracy so the same rules apply.

    Voted for Brexit ?, you mean the democratic majority that voted to leave in 2016 ?, the same people who ignore the " you dont know what you voted for scenario" . Are you suggesting that Brexit voters are stupid ?, is it only the losing remainers that know the full story should have been allowed to vote ?. Rather pompous statement , the " ordainary people " had their say in the referendum .

    You seem to have completely missed my point. Edin Nowhere suggested that people who vote for Naz Shah are 'thick as pig shit'. By the same token, some people have suggested the same about those who voted for Brexit, but are immediately criticised. Why is it ok for one group of voters to be branded as stupid because they vote a certain way, but not for another group of voters?

    I never said that you said it. But you are implying that people who vote for Naz Shah are thick and none of her regular critics have challenged that. Yet when people suggest that some Brexit voters are ignorant then all hell breaks loose immediately. It's a double standard.
