It was reported in the story. Perhaps if she was just Joe Bloggs the police may have fobbed her off but thought a Councillor wouldn't let it go. | |

I class myself as completely non racist but I do have a habit of saying old fashioned things. When I have a bruised arm and refer to it as a black mans pinch my kids tell me off. I think this is possibly a bit borderline though. Personally I wouldn't be offended if a black bloke painted himself white for whatever reason but this is possibly a bit different. The jury is out with me. | |

I can help you here. It is because labour politicians have a habit of taking offence at everything and acting like sandal wearing lentil munchers. But then again you knew that. | |

It's not like they are being derogatory or prejudice about someone's race - they're just dressing up as a character and therefore trying to get an as accurate representation as possible. If someone wanted to dress up as trump and painted their face white for it I couldn't care less as it just dressing up as a character? I might be wrong and others can explain the reasons why but that's what I think. | | | |

You're missing the entire contextual history of 'blackface' and its role in racial stereotyping. | | | |

If someone was to dress up as Donald Trump I think they would paint their face orange rather than white | |

That's what makes me think there's no racist overtone to it and it's just four Soccer-AM loving simpletons thinking it would be a good laugh. | |

You realise that, if true, this reflects poorly on Ipswich? | |

Nope, not something I've come across before so that pretty much makes my comment redundant. I'll take a look so the whole thing makes more sense to me. | | | |

I'd go as far as to say that Ipswich is one of the most racially tolerant/racially integrated towns/cities in the country. | |
