The late Queen's Lady-in-Waiting, Lady Susan Hussey has had to step down from Royal duties.
At a gathering at Buckingham Palace hosted by Camilla, she apparently chatted to one of the guests, Ngozi Fulani and at some time asked her where she "really" came from, after she'd originally been told that she was born and bred in Britain
Now I hate racism, sexism and homophobia, but I think Ms Fulani, who said she was "totally stunned" by this has been completely oversensitive.
I don't have a Lancashire accent as I was born in the Midlands, but many times I've been asked where I come from. Similarly I know many Black and Asian people who were born in the UK, as well as friends with Polish, Ukrainian and German heritage. They're all proud of their roots, and so should Ms Fulani.
This smells of "political" opportunism!!!
