The case of Lady Susan Hussey vs. Ms. Ngozi Fulani

Some info in between:

The Mail on Sunday can reveal that Lady Susan Hussey has long attended St Agnes Church in Kennington, an ethnically diverse area of South London.
Lady Susan, 83, resigned as one of the Ladies of the Household at Buckingham Palace after being accused of ‘interrogating’ Ngozi Fulani, of the domestic abuse charity Sistah Space, about her heritage at a function on Tuesday.
Now the congregation at St Agnes has rallied around Lady Susan and dismissed the claim that she is guilty of racial prejudice.

I wonder how this case will go on ....

A good article:

What I find more traumatising is the way she made a meal out of answering a pretty standard question posed by an 83 year old woman about her heritage.

Asking someone where they’re from is possibly the most common global icebreaker question.

This is the same woman who accused Camilla and Charles of domestic violence towards Meghan in a tweet which is a shocking unproven claim a bit like Meghan’s claim about racism towards her unborn child.

In March 2021 Ngozi sent out this tweet: “Our charity supports black women DV survivors. I can't stay silent about this. I admire Meghan for speaking out. According to clear definition, it seems Meghan is a survivor of DV from her in-laws. PS, I'm glad hypocrite Piers left ITV.”

This is someone who already has an agenda which has somehow been ignored. Listen to them on the established media.

I’d be asking who invited you, how did you memorise this conversation, what about the tweet and your association with BLM. It was like Oprah all over again.

Where is your due diligence on this woman for goodness sake? Are you blinded by the race card you can’t ask any questions?

Call yourselves journalists!

Look, Ngozi, if you’re going to go out like that dressed in traditional attire and can't answer simple questions like where are you from and instead chose to go around the houses, then don’t be surprised if the conversation drags - just answer the flaming question.

A question She’s clearly comfortable answering because on her biog she gives the game away in the first few lines. AND she’s more than happy to ask it to those who come to her charity because you have to be of African or Caribbean heritage before she'll help

In the Telegraph Ngozi says: "If you invite people to an event against domestic abuse and there are people from different demographics I don’t see the relevance of whether I’m British or not British’"
That’s a good point actually, Ngozi, why should it matter. But your charity seems to think it does, it will only help African and Caribbean people, that to me is racist in itself.
This is what it says on her charity’s Facebook page: "Sistah Space is a safe venue dedicated to African and Caribbean victims/survivors of domestic and sexual abuse and is staffed and managed by volunteers."

Can you imagine if the charity said only white people, I bet she’d be the first to complain.

Let me see… I go to the charity, they ask where I’m from, I say Newcastle, they ask me again I say from GB News, then they ask me, no what part of Africa, I say they didn’t keep a record. I’m guessing she’ll tell me to clear off.

I wonder how many traumatised women she’s turned away who don’t meet her criteria.

Frankly I’m embarrassed about this woman. She is affiliated with the BLM a bunch of fraudsters who played on ‘white guilt’ to extort money from the generous trusting nature of most people the majority of whom are not racist and in my view Manipulating a conversation to suit her own ends at the expense of an old woman

Ngozi Fulani is a complete and utter hypocrite.

In all fairness I would suggest, that ...

a) Lady Susan Hussey gets re-instated as Lady-in-Waiting - if she should wish so
b) and that Ngozi Fulani gets sentenced for illegal recording of a private conversation

A very good article indeed.

May I quote:

Here are some points about this.

Misunderstandings can arise in conversations between strangers. With private social gatherings, an aggrieved guest can raise the matter afterwards by contacting the host. Ngozi Fulani did not attempt this. She quickly tweeted her version of the incident, thus turning it into a public matter without giving the Palace or Lady Susan the chance to respond privately. That was unfair.

Ms Fulani’s account of the conversation was presented as a verbatim one. How could such a dialogue have been accurately reproduced unless it had been recorded (which is not permissible at a private party)? It is unfair to rely absolutely on such an account, even if Ms Fulani was tweeting in good faith.

It has emerged that the passage that Ms Fulani broadcast was part of a longer conversation. It would be interesting to know the rest of it. Ms Fulani’s anxiety began, she suggests, when Lady Susan moved her hair from her name-badge in order to read it. It would be relevant here if the first person to have asked about the other’s name-badge had been Ms Fulani. That would have emboldened Lady Susan to reciprocate. It is unfair publicly to traduce Lady Susan on the basis of a partial account.

Buckingham Palace is insistent that Lady Susan resigned of her own free will. No doubt that is true: she has always done what she feels is her duty. But in this case, she was given almost no time and there was no serious attempt (how could there have been in a couple of hours?) to establish the facts. That was unfair.
The Palace announced that the conversation had been “deeply regrettable”. Given its incomplete state of knowledge, that was unfair too.

In defence of Lady Susan Hussey

Zitat

Lady Susan Hussey resigned from the Royal household yesterday after 60 years of loyal service to King and Country. Lady Susan, who is 83, has survived world crises, royal scandals and machinations and the death of her friend Queen Elizabeth, to whom she was a beloved companion and longest serving lady in waiting. But she could not survive a meeting with the activist Ngozi Fulani and the arbitrary ‘rules’ that apparently now govern 21st Century social discourse.

Ms Fulani, the British born head of a London charity, who was attending a function at Buckingham Palace to draw attention to violence against women, says she felt ‘trauma’ and ‘violated’ after Lady Susan asked her which part of Africa she was from. Ms Fulani posted the exchange on Twitter, and despite claiming she had no desire to ‘name and shame’ tweeted Hussey’s initials for the benefit of the press, just in case we journos were being thick.

The walls of the temple then came down on the elderly miscreant. Prince William, who is Lady Susan’s godson, expressed ‘disappointment’ in his long-standing benefactor and elder, and the Palace denounced the incident as ‘unacceptable’. But what is more ‘unacceptable’? To publicly condemn and dismiss an 83-year-old for showing curiosity about someone’s heritage? Or for dispatching a loyal, grey-haired servant with such cruel haste, without even the benefit of a day’s grace? I incline to the latter. But then I am prejudiced, I have known Susan Hussey since I was 18, and if she is a racist, then I am an ornamental fountain.

Her sin, if there was one, was being old. Most pensioners are unfamiliar with the wonders of woke etiquette and its pitfalls. There are new strict rules governing what used to be called ‘making conversation’. In asking Ms Fulani where she ‘really’ came from, Susan Hussey was merely repeating what people like her and my late father used to say.

When my parents met in the early 1960s, the first thing he asked my mother, who is Hungarian, was ‘where are you really from?’ Really. People of Sue Hussey’s generation did not grow up in today’s multi-cultural Britain. This might make them old fashioned, but Ms Fulani, who is a sophisticated media performer and the head of a charity, might have acted with some grace.

Some good questions:

Zitat

---

I’m wondering why she even went to the Palace if she has such a low opinion of the royals. Ms Fulani has said she felt “violated” after Lady Susan’s repeated questions about where she was from. But is it not conceivable or understandable that Lady Hussey was confused by her outfit?

Ms Fulani has publicly stated she loves wearing her African attire. She has also talked about being her “full African self”. Moreover, she was invited to BP because she’s the founder of Sistah Space, an initiative which supports women of African and Caribbean heritage.

Is there really not a sliver of space here to give Lady Susan the benefit of the doubt? Because there should be. Didn’t it occur to her that Lady Susan’s job is to find out who people are and where they are from before they introduce them to the Queen – in this case Camilla.

I hear that Ms Ngozi is upset. But does she honestly see what Lady Susan did as “abuse”? It’s a very inflammatory word which suggests she thinks it was intentional and I don’t believe for a second it was.

Let's put it this way:

Asking somebody where he or she is from, is NOT racist.
But a charity that only helps women of one race and not women of an other race is clearly racist.
Ngozi Fulani runs such a charity.
So there ....

Q.E.D.

I found this good article:

The two real victims of this incident are Lady Susan Hussey and the Monarchy. Lady Susan has been treated appallingly. It was noticeable that the one point on which all woke commentators were eager to congratulate the Palace was the speed with which it had acted. That is because, in cases such as this, the false narrative can seldom survive scrutiny beyond 24 hours, so it is necessary to insist on summary injustice. Thus, the career of Lady Susan Hussey, who had served the late Queen devotedly for 62 years, was terminated within two hours of a contrived complaint.

I just imagine I saw a girl in a beautiful Black Forest costume at some meeting in Berlin.
Now as I myself am from the Black Forest I would ask her out of a friendly interest: "Where are you from?" expecting to hear the name of some Black Forest village. But instead she would tell me the name of the firm she is working for - and then where the headquarter of that firm is.
Disappointed I might ask then: "No, I mean, which Black Forest village costume are you wearing?" And then it would turn out that her costume is fake and she does not really know where her family is from.

And then later I had to read in all newspapers that I had "interrogated" her and behaved very rudely in general.
And I would be fired from my job.
I can really feel how Lady Hussey must feel now.

Lady Susan Hussey would have been treated with respect by Queen Elizabeth; now, just three months after the Queen’s death, Lady Susan has become, in the words of her godson’s spokesman, “the individual” who “has stepped aside with immediate effect”, adding the gratuitous observation “racism has no place in our society” – thus implicitly supporting the notion that Lady Susan is a racist.
