"I would suggest that Shah was not making a genuine proposal as to what should happen when she wrote that."


Hate to point this out to you Kevin but what "you suggest" she meant is irrelevant. The lady herself declared that SHE regarded and recognised her remarks as being anti-Semitic and stated that they were made in ignorance based on misinformation, and that Kevin is the alpha to omega of what Naz Shah said. No-one is interested in what others say to try and tidy that up and sanitise it.

In determining what is regarded as unacceptable and offensive, then the definition comes from the person or group suffering and noting the offence, it most certainly is not defined by those doing the offending.
