Heartwarming to see such foul racism garnering the righteous anger it merits. The Sainsbury’s Board should resign en masse and be made to stand in head-bowed silence outside the House of Commons, every day for an hour at noon till Xmas Eve, in short pants and “I am a racist”<\/em>\u00a0 t-shirts.<\/p>\n
