Racist Joke?

[Elton]

Heard about this earlier:

If anyone is seriously offended by that, then they need to get out more. The only thing I can imagine being offensive about it is the fact that we used to say that one about thirty years ago.

 

Great Britain - there's a chuffing joke for you.

i say using the word chuffing is derogatory to steam trains ,outrageous

[Elton]

For crying out loud....I just read one of the linked articles:

This taken from the report says it all

 

A spokesman for Absolute Radio said there had been no complaints to the station from listeners, but O'Connell would apologise on-air today.

 

No-body cares but they will apologise anyway

[chesters1]

now that criminals are above the law the police have to do something

its pathetic......they would have a heart attack if they could hear the sort of thing we broadcast over here.

If the joke had been

 

"What do you call a Scottish cloak room attendant?"

 

"Angus McCoatup"

 

would there be an uproar?

I thought the biggest and unfunniest racist joke in Britain is the Commission for Racial Equality, chaired by Trevor Phillips.

 

One question which bugs me still is why there's never been a white, English chairman of the highly august, important and influent Commission for Racial Equality?

You're right about Phillips (in my opinion), he's a disgrace.

 

I can't answer your question but probably for the same reason that we don't have a National White Police Association!
