Aged only 60, Anne Marie N. Morris, to whom the Conservative Whip has just been restored, used an expression that had not been current in 50 or 60 years.
But more to the point, she used a word that would have been career-ending in the American South. Roy Moore could not get away with it, and he probably would not want to.
Morris ought to be expelled from the House of Commons. That is an extremely rare censure, but this is a mercifully rare case. Forget the anti-racist credentials of any MP who failed to support that censure in this case.
