It is absolutely absurd that Diane Abbott has been suspended for this.
She's describing the lived experience of anti-Black racism.
She wasn't saying Jewish people and Travellers don't experience racism. She's saying that racism takes different forms.

Happy St Dwynwen's Day/ Dydd Santes Dwynwen hapus!
Today is the feast day of Dwynwen, the Welsh patron saint of lovers. Her church on Ynys Llanddwyn is a legendary pilgrimage site, a haven for the 'lovesick' and steeped in folklore.
Go forth and be romantic!
