She just wants to pull the ladder up behind her
kemi identifying as something other than her biological trait? nah kemi would never do that because she thinks that's bad!
On the one hand, my parents are from South Asian heritage, and I don't exactly stand by that heritage, so on the one hand there is a part of me that resonates more of a British person than that South Asian heritage. I know myself there are others who identify more as British than the cultural background of either themselves or their parents.
On the other hand, Kemi is a racist piece of shit who is probably trying to use this to desperately make herself appealing to the racists in the UK in the desperate hope she can win over that Brexit party crowd.
- She also actually grew up there. It's not like her parents came over had her in the UK and in her entire life was in the UK. As she constantly points out, she was brought up in Nigeria.
The Conservative party is very much part of my family, my extended family, I call it.
🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮
Thanks Olukemi, do you think the conservative voter base sees you as ~~white~~ British as well?
Because your dog whistles don't impress me.
EDIT : FYI, the caller said that Rishi would get decimated (✔) and would get 20% of the vote (23.7 ✔)
There are lots of racists in britain, and they aren't going to vote for a black woman to be their prime minister.
- They probably see her as “one of the good ones”
  
  They don’t think those are anything more than a slim theoretical possibility.
When education is not liberating, the dream of the oppressed is to be the oppressor.
