This post is ridiculous.

So bloody what. Lots of old and entertaining films would send the Right On Brigade into a meltdown. Just because we wouldn't do it now, surely we are mature enough to cope with something old fashioned without a hissy fit.

Of course it is because she's not a giant racist.

And............

This is a race baiting ‘Nothing Burger’. I don’t care for May either but the fact an old classic film has a now racially insensitive scene doesn’t make the viewer racist. I love the movie even if I don’t accept the scene. You CAN’T and shouldn’t erase history. Learn from it.

I’m all for calling Theresa May out on her arms dealing, peado cover ups, incompetence, endless lies and U-turns, conflicts of war mongering interests, human rights abuses etc etc....but enjoying an 80yr old movie is utter 🎾 ⚽️ 🎱 ‘s

It's become so easy to judge people as racist these days it's actually become the new type of discrimination really... Its ridiculous and counterproducing.

Strange ..I thought it would be Oliver Twist..

...and featuring running through fields of wheat?

So bloody what, it was done yrs ago and no one blinked an eye, it's called makeup! Actors do it all the time!

And who could have guessed her favourite Xmas song is 'White Christmas'

The Jazz Singer?...I didn't click on the link.

Means nothing, just a film.

😮😮

Or american history X

Mine is hateful 8 does that make me racist?

My favourite film is bambi especially the part where the mother gets killed... Give it a rest!

The racism at the heart of the Conservatives

We all know May hates black people especially Biafrans

Says it all really!

Supposed to sound surprised?

So what

Maybe not because of that scene you dolts...but in spite...

Hold on, you ran out of Trump or Brexit bashing stories? This is like a winning goal in injury time for most stupid pointless tweet of the year. What exactly are you trying to suggest? No wonder you're paper went bust. Get out of your bedroom or open the curtains at least.

Surely it was called “The Windrush Scandal”

You childish sad act.

FFS Honestly the most embarrassing Tweet of 2018. Grow up. My favourite film is Pulp Fiction but it's no reflection on me as a person. I don't love 'Gimp' suits or guns. MerryChristmas you 🔔's

Grow the fuck up independent there was no word from you when she subverted a public referendum, yet her liking a film from the 1940 is what calls you to action?!.

Oh who effing cares. Enough with the groupthink.

So what
