| 'Boris would destroy London's unity' says Doreen Lawrence OBE Doreen Lawrence, the mother of the murdered teenager Stephen Lawrence, yesterday launched a fierce personal attack on Boris Johnson, saying he would destroy multicultural London if elected mayor, and that no informed black person would vote for him. Ms Lawrence, who does not normally become involved in party politics, said she had been moved to make the criticisms by her anger at Mr Johnson's attitude to the Macpherson inquiry in 1999 into the Metropolitan police's failure to bring her son's killers to justice 14 years ago. Mr Johnson was especially condemnatory of a "weird recommendation that the law might be changed so as to allow prosecution for racist language or behaviour 'other than in a public place'. Not even under the law of Ceausescu's Romania could you be prosecuted for what you said in your own kitchen," he wrote............ Johnson 'would destroy London's unity' as mayor | The Guardian | Guardian Unlimited I wonder if Ken Livingston put her up to this? No one has pandered more to the ethnic minorities than red Ken. Anyway London is not unified. You only have to walk around various parts of london to notice the gross indifference all the different nationalities show to one another. |
