"The fact that this happened 16 years ago is a very different situation"
"abhors all kinds of racism"
The Social Democrats state the party abhors all kinds of racism. A party TD admitted wearing blackface makeup as part of a Barack Obama costume and issued an apology for applying makeup to face and hands during a Halloween party sixteen years earlier. The passage of sixteen years has been described as making the situation different. The admission and apology have prompted attention to issues of racial sensitivity, the historical context of past actions, and expectations of conduct for public representatives.
