Lord Taylor of Warwick found guilty.
Guilty on all six charges of false accounting – majority verdict – so his excursion into ‘race victim’ did him no good at all……
Some ‘Is it ‘cos I’s black’ gems from his evidence:
He was told by teachers he could not be a barrister because he was black.
Lord Taylor beat 300 Tory candidates for Cheltenham seat. He faced racism & death threats.
Taylor said it was traumatic. Race dominated campaign. Was described as ‘bloody nigger’ by Tory colleague.
Lord Taylor said he was ‘Afro Saxon’ ‘working for silent majority of blacks who were not muggers’
Taylor describes joining House of Lords & seeing a ‘sea of white faces’.
Bishop Wayne Malcolm, giving character witness for Lord Taylor said he was inspirational because he was a Caribbean peer.
Self evidently the jury expect you to be honest even if you are black…….
Released on bail pending sentencing.

It’s a shame the media are turning a blind eye to Lord
Taylor’s
“Leadership Foundation.” His aim to ‘make every child a leader’
might have something to do with the problems so many youngsters are facing
today. Oh, and the media seem to be conveniently overlooking his
past years
as Chancellor of Bournemouth University, where he presided
over total utter
corruption! Society would be better off with this guy behind bars where he
cannot influence children any further. It’s only a pity he can’t take his bent
mates from Bournemouth University with him!

He may be guilty as hell, but I agree with him on one thing, he’s the one
in the dock, not any of the others who were defrauding the system, because
he’s black. He may deserve everything he gets, but he doesn’t deserve to be
the only one that gets it.

He must have been a rubbish lawyer. What a defence: I’ve had a hard life
‘cos I is black, and anyway, the big lads told me to do it. But there’s quite
a few others been let off the hook. Baroness Uddin for starters. Taylor, and
those like him in the Lords, and innumerable MPs in the Commons who haven’t
been brought to book yet have destroyed any confidence the public had in our
political system. They ought to get five years each just for that.

Seeing as he says they were all at it, why not offer him an absolute pardon
in return for a list of all the peers he knows to have done the same, then
drag the b@stard lot of them through the courts.

I have duly set him up for a good spell in the oven. Do please add your
damning comments to my post!!
(and I didn’t even need to mention the race card!)

“The left-wing blogs will be in anguished contemplation right now”
No, Julia, they will be utterly confused, a bit like the Daily Mail reader
who discovers that Asylum Seekers eat single mothers.
Contemplation is an activitiy for those blessed with an intellect.
It is now a matter of record that Taylor not only played the race card, but
the po black chicken eating kid that rose above it. Only, he didn’t, did
he?

No it will be justified on the grounds he was a Tory Uncle Tom

My heart bleeds for him.
Actually, that’s a lie.
According to the BBC website: “He claimed he had made the false claims “in
lieu of a salary,” and had been acting on the advice of colleagues.”
Yeah, right. He’ll be blaming his lack of common sense on his skin colour
next.
