'Scotsman News'.. I take it as being UK women living here, no matter their colour!

Carrottop, what has Black women in this country possibly developing cancer earlier got to do with Africa? Moron.I hate it when narrow minded people like you use opportunities such as this to display that you dont even use the one active brain cell you have properly.
