I would sooner engage with real african people like I did at a garden center a few years ago and put a kid thru school then be patronised by british people who think they can speak for  africa simply because they share the same skin colour.

I certainly wouldnt have a white american or canadian speak for me, and i doubt africa has endorsed Lammy?

I feel for her being put into this situation.  She does amazing work as an award winning, serious documentary maker and some loudmouthed MP comes along and rubbishes it without thinking about how nuanced the whole thing is.

And thats one of the reasons i hope CR crashes and burns and Lenny Henry and Co will hopefully point the finger at lammy who should be concentrating on the issues in his own constituency anyway
