Indian-origin MP faces racist attack in UK

“The ‘Paki’ Priti Patel is far from pretty – in fact she is ugly as hell” he wrote on his blog,Jailhouselawyer.

60-year-old Hirst wrote: “Unlike the foreign import Patel,I am a Brit born and bred”.

Born in London,Patel is the child of Ugandan Indian immigrants.

On his blog,Hirst said: “If Patel wasn’t so stupid she would understand that passing another Bill trying to establish the UK’s supremacy on how it treat prisoners is non-starter.

“If Patel was an honest woman instead of being corrupt then she would not be calling for the government and parliament to stand up to Europe,she would be condemning them for their abuse of the most vulnerable group in society – prisoners,” he said.

Hirst also accused Patel and fellow Conservative Claire Perry,a former banker who believes British judges should decide which prisoners should have the right to vote,of “expenses-fiddling”.

Patel said last night: “These comments are beneath contempt. My argument on votes for prisoners is based on principle,not inaccurate slurs and racist abuse”.

She said,“I believe that people are in prison for a reason. You lose the right to vote once you commit a crime”.

According to the report Perry dismissed Hirst’s remarks as “lowlife rantings”.

Hirst was jailed in 1979 for killing landlady Bronia Burton by hitting her up to seven times on the head with an axe after she asked him to go outside and get some coal for the fire.
