Would you describe American born PM Boris Johnson as a racist? Boris Johnson certainly has a long record of controversial comments about women, gay people and ethnic minorities. Johnson has come under fire previously for his use of language, including describing Muslim women as ‘looking like letterboxes.’ Previously claiming the African continent is a mess, but stating we can't blame colonialism,' he wrote: "It is just not convincing, 40 years on, to blame Africa's problems on the 'lines on the map', the arbitrary boundary-making of the men in sola topis." In one column he labeled black Africans "piccaninnies" with "watermelon smiles." Proudly exclaiming "What a relief it must be for Blair to get out of England. It is said that the Queen has come to love the Commonwealth, partly because it supplies her with regular cheering crowds of flag-waving piccaninnies," he wrote, referring to African people as having "watermelon smiles." Johnson once wrote that British colonialism in Africa is "not a blot upon our conscience." Johnson has stated: “No doubt the AK47s will fall silent, and the pangas will stop their hacking of human flesh, and the tribal warriors will all break out in watermelon smiles to see the big white chief touch down in his big white British taxpayer-funded bird.” He has said much more than this previously and BlackNews.UK would like to hear from you.
