Kelis says she was racially abused by a British man in Spain, not at Gatwick!

A City Hall source told the Standard: “We’d appreciate in future if people like Kelis were more careful in their use of language about London and not suggest that something has happened in the capital when it hasn’t.

That “people like Kelis” is rather magnificent, don’t you think?
