Sunak silent on Tory racism after leading donor’s attack on Diane Abbott
RISHI SUNAK was under mounting pressure today to get a grip on rampant racism in the Tory Party following a leading donor’s remarks saying Diane Abbott should be shot.
Politicians in both Labour and Tory parties denounced the call by businessman Frank Hester, who has given the Conservatives £10 million over the last year — but Mr Sunak stayed silent.
On Monday the Guardian reported that Mr Hester said at a meeting in 2019 that Ms Abbott, Britain’s first black female MP, made him want to “hate all black women,” before recommending her execution.
