For good equal terms, and triggered by a story I just noted and left me shocked. Why not have thread regarding the conservatives as well.

Not very PC but then again I don't think the 'PC Crowd' were his target audience for those remarks, looks like a leadership challenge is coming.....

I saw the headline earlier but didn't think anything more of it.  I think he's now being paid by the Telegraph to be more controversial, more of an agent provocateur, a Katie Hopkins a-like.  After all, more controversy equals more clicks. The Daily Mail method of monetising "news".

He's got history in making close to the bone, pseudo-racist remarks anyway.

Whilst his article is distasteful and disrespectful  it can't really be labled at the party . As such the OP title is a wee bit clickbaity with the Conservative front and foremost . Would of better been posted and discussed in the Conservative thread IMO.

Apologies, quite happy for a mod to close it and move it.
