Tory MP branded an "inherent racist" in UGLY TV row
Tory MP David Davies was dismissed as "an inherent racist" for questioning Britain's border security in an astonishing on-air exchange.
Mr Davies rose to prominence earlier this year when he called for the Calais teenagers arriving in Britain to verify their ages through dental examinations.
During a live interview with RT, Mr Davies said: "Anyone willing to jump into the back of a lorry and onto an electrified railway line is going to be willing to lie about their age."

This remark prompted fellow panel guest Scott Capurro, a provactive comedian from San Francisco, to jump in on the interview and brand the MP an "inherent racist".
He told the MP for Monmouth in south Wales: "These people are desperate and being killed in civil wars.
"You’re a racist, buddy. You’re an inherent racist. You need to check your white privilege!"
The Conservative politician responded: "So, what? We are going to let everyone in?
"You’re saying, anyone from any country with a war going on should just be let in?"

Just because I’m white I can’t express an opinion?
Mr Davies said the use of the 'race card' during the migration discussion was "a racist comment" in itself.
He said: "Just because I’m white I can’t express an opinion?
"You’re a complete idiot. You don’t know what you’re talking about."

Before the interruption, the MP had been discussing the controversy that arose when he called for mandatory teeth checks on migrants entering Britain.
He said the proposal, branded unethical by the British Dental Association, was simply to reassure the public.
Earlier this month, he also criticised Remain campaigners for "exaggerating" the spike in hate crimes post-referendum.
Mr Davies said people were using rare incidents to “build a narrative” to silence Brexiteers and shut down “legitimate political debate”.
