Quite, if you take what she said in the conversation, it is crystal clear she was inquiring about her heritage! So clear in fact Fulani actually answers: "No Lady, I am of African heritage, Caribbean descent and British nationality. " 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is even sadder, is that there are people who actively go looking to be offended. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-63768031 Camilla, The Queen Consort, is ending the tradition of having ladies-in-waiting, but instead will be helped by "Queen's companions". As well as modernising the title, the six women assistants will be less regularly in attendance than the previous role required. The honorary positions involve helping the Queen Consort at public events. Unlike the ladies-in-waiting, this slimmed-down role will not involve correspondence or administration. Replacing the role of lady-in-waiting will end a feature of court life going back to the middle ages, with such close personal helpers of a Queen often coming from aristocratic families and, over the centuries, sometimes caught up in court intrigue. The new "companions" will be a more occasional and informal position, supporting the Queen Consort at official engagements and not involved in replying to letters or day-to-day planning. They don't receive a salary but their expenses will be covered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gleeful at the downfall of an 83 year old woman for using the wrong terminology. #bekind So it took 83 years for her to learn she needs to treat everyone with the same respect she’s enjoyed all her life. And while doing so she’s delivered an opportunity for more rightwing grievance nurturing. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post London Lowf Posted December 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2022 Fulani could have diffused the whole thing but instead she dug her heels in and made a meal of it. She is quoted somewhere as saying that she doesn't want to appear to have a chip on her shoulder - well, you said it! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, the Woke mob will twist anything if it gives them an opportunity to gang up on an elderly lady for not being fluent in Wokespeak. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s no such thing as ‘woke speak’ or ‘woke mob’. There is however a well established practice of good manners and respect for others. The old lady here has spent a life time in Royal Circles, she knows precisely how to treat others with respect, she chose not do so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to hear the tone of the conversation. What she was NOT, is racist. Asking where someone originates from is not racist. If you'd lived in Thailand you would know that. You're looking for something that isn't there to further an agenda. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
