Ellipsis, if what was true?

[Ellipsis]

The Palace responded with a statement stressing that ‘unacceptable and deeply regrettable comments’ had been made. It was added that the individual concerned would like to express her profound apologies for the hurt caused.

[Peter Pedant]

don't bother explaining, unsurprisingly, I don't care either.

erm why did we post it then? - oh well full moon night on AB.

[naomi24]

I refer you to my previous answer. Making the right noises. The palace doesn’t get into spats. They maintain their dignity. This woman has ‘form’ for falsely accusing the royals of racism - and more. I really don’t believe you don’t understand that.

[naomi24]

^that to ellipsis.

naomi - // This woman has ‘form’ for falsely accusing the royals of racism - and more. I really don’t believe you don’t understand that. //

That doesn't mean that Lady Hussey may not have 'form' either, only that she has the protection of the Queen and the palace behind her.

And, for the nth time, just because Ms Fulani has 'form' as you so delicately put it, does not excuse Lady Hussey's behaviour on the day in question.

The palace, and its staff, should surely be showing an example to the 'lower orders', not providing 'form' in their own right.

[naomi24]

Lady Hussey does not have ‘form’. Her record is exemplary. If it wasn’t she wouldn’t have been the queen’ lady in waiting for the past 60 years.

> I refer you to my previous answer.

And I refer you to my last answer. "The Palace responded with a statement stressing that ‘unacceptable and deeply regrettable comments’ had been made". That statement is either true or false.

If it's true then "the Palace" establishment, that included Lady Susan Hussey who was representing them, was racist.

If it's not true then the Palace establishment is lying about it, which is even worse.

I'd prefer to believe that it was true. In saying "Making the right noises.", you're saying that the Palace is telling an outright lie (unacceptable and deeply regrettable comments had been made) rather than challenge the version of events.

[naomi24]

Cry ‘racism’ and society capitulates - and that’s exactly what the palace did. A sad indictment on today’s society where ‘woke’ rules.

[Ellipsis]

Oh OK, so you who weren't there are trying to protect the Palace from themselves based on some narrative you construct from pieces you can find on the internet, rather than statements made by parties that were actually present.

Jimmy Savile's record was 'exemplary' ... until it wasn't.

Why won't you accept that because something may not have been advised to the wider world, does not automatically mean that it cannot possibly have happened.

And I don't care if Jimmy Savile built Stoke Mandevile with his own bare hands, it didn't excuse him when he was found out.

Simply fussing over the Queen for sixty years does not automatically make Lady Hussey a saint on earth - it merely invites the possibility that she has been protected, and her inability to behave in public has ensured she never opens her mouth there.

Until she did, then look what happened!!

You are utterly blinkered by the 'research' that trashes Ms Fulani's reputation, but that does not automatically mean that Lady Hussey is not potentially as guilty - it just means people look the other way when it suits them.

A bit like Prince Charles thanking JS personally for all the 'good work' he did ...

naomi - // Cry ‘racism’ and society capitulates - and that’s exactly what the palace did. A sad indictment on today’s society where ‘woke’ rules. //

There is no 'capitulation' - merely acknowldgement of unacceptable behaviour.

The palace accepted it was wrong, Lady Hussey accepted it was wrong - just you and few other die-hards are trying desperately to make it anyone's fault - society .... the palace .... wokeism ... anyone, except the person whose fault it was.

She has had the grace to face up to what she did wrong, I remain mystified as to what is stopping you from doing the same thing.

[naomi24]

Ellipsis, In defending someone known to have made false accusations of racism against the royals in the past, you are capitulating right now. Hmmm…

[royfromaus]

Jimmy Savile's record was 'exemplary' ... until it wasn't.

Good grief.
Do you expect 100's of racial (alleged) incidents involving Lady Hussey to come to light now then?

[Ellipsis]

I'm not defending anybody ...

[naomi24]

^that to you too, AH. Principle is clearly at a premium with both of you.

[naomi24]

Not me guv!

[Atheist]

Naomi; couldn't you put aside your aversion to AH and for once address politely and rationally one of his comments without simply reacting automatically? You can do it; and you should! :-)

[naomi24]

Atheist, Which of AH’s comments would you like me to address?

[THECORBYLOON]

NAOMI, "Lady Hussey does not have ‘form’. Her record is exemplary. If it wasn’t she wouldn’t have been the queen’ lady in waiting for the past 60 years"

No doubt the late Queen had standards that had to be met but how in earth can you claim Lady Hussey's record was "exemplary"?

How can you possibly know what like her performance was over those sixty year?
