Conservative peer Michelle Mone has settled a High Court claim for racial abuse after calling a man of Indian heritage a 'waste of a white man's skin'.
The Mail on Sunday understands that the lingerie tycoon, who had founded the Ultimo brand which earned her the nickname Baroness Bra, has paid more than £50,000 in settling the claim brought by Monaco-based financial consultant Richard Lynton-Jones.
Lawyers for the Glasgow-born baroness said that when she made the comment in a WhatsApp message in 2019 she believed that Mr Lynton-Jones was '100 per cent white and British' and that there was 'no trace whatsoever of non-white colouring or any features'.
