Tory donor’s Diane Abbott remarks were racist and wrong, says Sunak

At the same tie and with his fingers crossed behind is back, he was heard to whisper ‘but he money is bloody useful, just as well we gave him those NHS contracts’

So it’s taken over 24hrs for to finally admit via his spokesperson that Frank ’s words (which he never contested were said by him) were ‘ and wrong’:

[looking at Abbott made you] “want to hate all black women”

and that she

“should be shot”

Why did it take him so long to admit the obvious and when will he return Hester’s £10 million?

Tory donor said Diane Abbott made him ‘want to hate all black women’

Frank Hester, who has given £10 million to the party in the past year, said at a meeting in 2019 that leftwing MP ‘should be shot’

She is clearly the wrong type of ‘black' - and this is one of the men who own the country!

Frank Hester donated £10 million to the Tories just this year…

Is it a coincidence that this racist and misogynist man’s company, the Phoenix Partnership (TPP), for which he is the sole shareholder has been paid more than £400m by the NHS and other government bodies since 2016.

And the purpose of most of those contracts…primarily to look after 60m UK medical records.

Sickening.

Seriously?!

‘In public life, has had a relatively low profile for someone who runs a business of such critical importance.

He said in an interview with the Telegraph this month that he spent much of his life voting for the Green party or spoiling his ballot, but under the current Conservative government he has been part of trade missions led by senior figures.’

not only takes huge financial donations from Frank , he accepts personal helicopter rides too…how very cosy.

What #Hester said about #Abbott is absolutely disgusting and unacceptable - still: what else can you expect from a man who’s donated £10million to a political party which is deeply corrupted and riddled with #Racism, #Islamophobia, (real) #AntiSemitism, #Misogyny, illegal #DrugUse, #Narcissism and any number of other unmentionables?
