It's OK to mock Conservatives, apparently



In reality, Ms Patel comes across as a rather attractive white woman



The Guardian will not remove a cartoon which portrayed Priti Patel as a bull, despite her describing the image as racist and offensive.

The illustration, by the Guardian’s cartoonist, Steve Bell, depicted Ms Patel and Boris Johnson with horns and rings through their noses.

Speaking in the Commons on Monday, Ms Patel listed her experiences of racism. She spoke of being portrayed as “a fat cow with a ring through its nose, something that was not only racist but offensive, both culturally and religiously”. Ms Patel is a Hindu.

The cartoon was published in March and remains on the Guardian’s website. Responding to the Home Secretary’s comments, a Guardian News and Media spokesman said: “The cartoon was subject to a review by the Guardian’s independent readers’ editor at the time of publication.

This is the problem when everyone thinks they have a right to not be offended.

Which means the independent readers’ editor needs to be fired, too.
