she is basically the platonic ideal of a certain kind of middle-class white liberal - well-meaning, kind, but ignorant and unwilling to learn.
I think this is probably pretty spot on. Good to see that she's gone out publicly to say that it was a mistake, though, the liking. Even if it's not the exact truth, it at the very least sends out a message that she understands it was wrong and hopefully won't do it again. I'm also rather disappointed at her aggressive anti-Corbyn stance, though - the rise of corbynism is one of the most heartening movements I've seen in western politics for ages :/
