英国保守党女议员被指向印度裔发种族主义信息

Tory peer Michelle Mone denies racially abusing man of Indian heritage she believed was '100% white and British' after he claimed she told him he was a 'waste of a man's white skin' in WhatsApp rant after fatal Monaco yacht crash

英国保守党议员米歇尔·莫内否认对印度裔男子有种族歧视，她认为他是“100%的白人英国人”，在摩纳哥海岸发生游艇撞击后，在WhatsApp上引发了争吵，该男子称莫内说他“浪费了一身白皮肤”

Tory peer Michelle Mone today denied claims she was racist to a financial consultant of Indian heritage, insisting she believed he was '100% white and British' during a WhatsApp row sparked after an allegedly drugged up yacht skipper killed a member of her staff.

保守党议员米歇尔·莫内否认了她对一名印度裔金融顾问的种族歧视指控，坚称她相信他是“100%的白人英国人”。据称一名吸了毒的游艇船长杀害了她的一名员工，这在WhatsApp上引发了一场争吵。

The 50-year-old bra entrepreneur said the alleged victim was a 'waste of a man's white skin' in an exchange after a crash where one of her crew members died off the French coast.

游艇在法国海岸附近发生撞击事件后，她的一名船员身亡。这位50岁的文胸企业家在她whatapps上发送的信息中称该男子浪费了“一身白皮肤”。

In the exchange, seen by The Guardian, Lady Mone - who is known as 'Baroness Bra' - it is claimed she also refers to the man's partner as a 'nut case bird' and 'mental loony'.

在《卫报》看到的这段对话中，被称为“胸罩男爵夫人”的莫内夫人还称该男子的伴侣是“疯子”、“精神病”。

Her lawyers told the newspaper it was 'illogical as it is inconceivable that she could or would have made such a comment or made it with the slightest racist intent' because she had no knowledge that the man 'was anything other than white British, as his appearance is 100% white, with a cut-glass English accent'.

她的律师告诉记者这是不合逻辑的，无法想象她会说出这样的话或有丝毫种族歧视的意图，因为她不知道这个男人“除了英国白人之外还有其他身份，他是100%的白人，有着纯正的英国口音”。

Her lawyers said Lady Mone believed vehemently he was '100% white and British' and there was 'no trace whatsoever of non-white colouring or any features' on the man, who has not been identified.

她的律师说，莫内夫人坚信他是“100%的白人英国人”，在这名男子身上“没有任何非白色的痕迹或任何特征”，但他的身份尚未被确认。

The House of Lords member, who lives on the Isle of Man, has no 'detailed memory' of or 'access' to the messages and denied that she is a racist, her lawyers said.

她的律师说，这位居住在曼岛的上议院议员记不清这些信息了，也没有“接触到”这些信息，她否认自己是种族主义者。

The man made an official complaint to the Lords commissioner for standards, Martin Jelley, earlier this year but was told it would not be investigated because the exchange did not take place during the course of Lady Mone's parliamentary duties.

今年早些时候，这名男子向上议院事务专员马丁·杰利提出了正式指控，但被告知不会进行调查，事件并非发生在莫内夫人担任议会职务期间。
