Jacqui Smith is utterly and laughably fucking clueless, as she has proven with her clumsy remarks about Peckham (or wherever it was) and her even more clumsy attempts to repair the damage by going for a kebab...with bodyguards present.
I don't understand how an intelligent adult would decide that banning wearers of identifying gang insignia from areas would be a good idea.
