The home secretary described it as “clearly appalling” amid calls for the backbencher to be stripped of the Labour whip.The post, by black journalist Nels Abbey, said: “Warning: Seven rules for surviving a Kemi Badenoch victory.

“Don’t allow yourself to be gaslit. Of course, a victory for Badenoch is an obvious, unprecedented and once inconceivable victory for racism…“Don’t get arrested… The police don’t do nuance, and they conveniently refuse to understand black and brown intra-communal language or forms of critique, satire or compliment e.g. coconut, Uncle Tom, Aunt Kemi, house negro, choc ice etc.”
