Black female MP describes David Cameron and Nick Clegg as two posh white boys

Black Labour leadership candidate Diane Abbott is at the center of a race row after describing David Cameron and Nick Clegg as two posh white boys. Abbott, the first black woman MP, has previously faced accusations of racism after suggesting that the blond blue-eyed Finnish girls working in her local hospital were unsuitable as nurses because they had never met a black person before. Abbott has positioned herself as an anti-racism campaigner and once claimed that Britain had invented racism.
