Neil Hamilton's unacceptable insult

Did Neil Hamilton write this? Did the Express give it houseroom?

'fraid so.

In his piece on why Enoch was right (yawn), he suddenly says of Peter Hain:

himself an undesirable immigrant

I guess Mr Hamilton thought this was amusing. He was wrong. It's an utterly unacceptable insult.

And frankly, I'd far rather share a country with Peter Hain, anyway.

Quite right Daniel - Hamilton's piece was appalling. And, as you invite comparison between Hain and Hamilton, one was a prominent anti apartheid campaigner the other corrupted by Mohamed 'al' Fayed. Who is the more 'desirable'?

I think what Liberal Hammer and (probably) a lot of the establishment shouldn't be focusing on right now is the traditional 'championing' of the creators of Mugabe's Zimbabwe and the new RSA, but the comments left by the public under the 'offensive' article.

Things really seem to be gathering momentum here-

Are the Emperors robes suddenly being seen for what they really are?

I just hope it doesn't go too 'Pete Tong' before i make enough money (through work) to get my family out of this place.

Thanks.

Don't see what's so wrong with Hamilton's comment on Hain. Presumably you don't take issue with him calling Hain an "immigrant", if that is the case. So your problem must be with the word "undesirable". I've heard rather worse words...

It's a shame that when it comes to immigration some people like to adopt the position that some things are just "unnacceptable" without explaining why.

That may be true, but Mr Hain is rather too keen to share our country with the EU.
