There is no reason given for this lady resigning her position - it may be coincidence that this incident happened at the same time. There has not ben time for her employers to conduct any enquiry, should they have deemed it necessary, so it would appear that she could have remained in her job if she wished. This is less about racism than a salutary lesson about...

Not everyone who is offended, is a "dark darling" but you already know that, don't you?
Everybody is a delicate fragile these days. Easily bruised or broken.
That includes you then.
No, we honkeys are pretty resilient.
Such polls are usually meaningless.
Ask the question.
“Do you think Theresa May is a turnip” you’ll get people saying yes even if the thought had previously never entered their heads
Corbyloon - Nothing delicate or fragile about me mate!

TCJ @ 20:34, What is your point?

Go to the first paragraph of AH's post above mine, I'm just giving a possible reason for her leaving, ok?

TCL not tcj . . . Doh ;o)
THELAND, if "Everybody is a delicate fragile" it MUST include you by definition.
Theland - // The dark darlings offended again! //

As usual, you don't allow your ever-trumpted fervent Christian beliefs which you claim to live by, and we should too - get in the way of making a seriously nasty and offensive observation.
Theland - // Corbyloon - Nothing delicate or fragile about me mate! //

As Zacs pointed out in his post at 21.16, that is patently untrue.

Don't get me wrong, being fragile is nothing to be ashamed of - but being a hypocrite about it when you feel a bit better, is.

/// Another post illustrating how AOG doesn’t understand what racism is ///

Oh I know what true racism is, not certain other things that the Left and some of the ethnic minorities decide for themselves what to pin the overused label on.
I’ve no idea what that means and I doubt you do.
ANOTHEOLDGIT can decide what racism is but not others?
Why have you accepted the results of this opinion poll are representative of the country's population when you said another, similar sized poll on a different subject, was not?
AOG has only just appreciated that people who aren’t white can be British. I think he’s still getting over it.
Has he said they can be English but?
She's 64 almost at retirement age - perhaps she just decided to retire , with a parting shot representing her opinions ?
"Were white Cabbage Patch dolls also seen as racist?"
Were they sold in predominantly Afro/Carribean countries?
