The Russians will find it hilarious that Britain has voluntarily installed this imbecile as Foreign Secretary. We’ve gone from David Cameron to David Lammy. Possibly the biggest ministerial downgrade in British history. How his officials let him give this speech is beyond me.

Why did he bring his skin colour to that particular debate?

Russia is NOT my enemy. This imbecile does not speak for me.

I sit here as a white man, one whose ancestors were murdered or enslaved by the Romans, then partially by the Normans. It wasn't just slavery, we had our country taken over. White Man 1, Lammy Nil.

Lammy the racist again.

The man is an idiot. His performance on Mastermind is enough to confirm this. The only questions he got right were those on which he passed. Never has a less deserving bunch of cretins been handed the reins of power.

What a clown. Who rounded up his ancestors and sold them into slavery? Likely another African tribe that was bigger and stronger than his ancestors tribe. Also, claiming victimhood because of his ancestors hundreds of years ago, when he has had a privileged life in the UK and been able to make his way into being foreign secretary. I’ll let you decide whether that is through meritocracy or not, but Labour are a bit thin on the ground as far as THAT is concerned. Worst government ever.

@DavidLammy an idiot. Dumb as pebble, arrogant and obnoxious. No idea of his history, here or abroad. He’s a fraud, a weasel and a liar. Completely and utterly unfit for purpose.

Has to get his colour into his speech. Absolute joke.

He means he's ancestors were sold by Black Africans all around the world. I hope the Russian envoy reminds him it was Black Africans selling there compatriots into slavery & it was Britain that stopped Africans selling other Africans as slaves....Thanks Britain !!

He’s so embarrassing.
