Lee Anderson says ‘dozens of Tory MPs’ back him over Sadiq Khan comments

Conservative MP Paul Scully has apologised for suggesting there are 'no-go' areas in some UK cities - prompting accusations of Islamophobia. He said it's language he 'regrets'.
(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
He made the initial comment on Monday, while criticising former Tory deputy chairman Lee Anderson, for saying 'Islamists' had 'control' over London Mayor Sadiq Khan.
Mr Anderson was stripped of the whip over his remarks - but he says he won't apologise.

Without protests, working class men would not have been given the vote, and neither would women. As for your comment about Israel being attacked, Palestinians have been attacked by Israelis for the past 75 years and who have totally rejected UN resolutions to cease their attacks and annexation of Palestinian land. A better way of looking at this is to think of what the British public's response would have been if Britain had been over-run by Germany in the last world war.
