Re: Ugly Looney Labour Anti-Semitism Rears Again

I don't know ... How do you get 100 Romanies in a mini ?

Ps. I hope this is a funny joke and doesn't get some posters ravening mad, having a snit on them and going off on one about anti-Semitism. I don't think my nerves could stand it.

Oh lord, is it one of those ash tray jokes?

Son number1 came home from school after the assassination of the Indian PM Indira Ghandi...his first sick joke.
The ash tray/ Mini one.
He didn't even understand it until I'd explained it to him, bless him.

Now I come to think of it modern cars don't have ash trays.

Oh, right .... wish I hadn't asked.

Re: Ugly Looney Labour Anti-Semitism Rears Again

They would have that mini down the scrappy before you could blink.

Re: Ugly Looney Labour Anti-Semitism Rears Again

Does the joke, whether it is good taste or not, reflect anything about the re-teller ?

Is your son badly brought up, is he a covert Nazi, is he anti Indian ?

Grr .... pass, Magnus .... I'm going to my 'happy' place.

Re: Ugly Looney Labour Anti-Semitism Rears Again

It seems we live in a society where tragedy has become something that is used to get a cheap laugh .
What a sick culture we have that has no empathy with the sufferings of others.

Top UK writers accuse Jeremy Corbyn's Labour of 'widespread' anti-Semitism

https://www.standard.co.uk/news/poli...-a3677661.html

"In the letter the writers claim that “constructive criticism of Israeli governments has morphed into something closer to anti-Semitism under the cloak of so-called anti-Zionism”.

And they described Jeremy Corbyn’s reaction to accusations of ant-Semitism as “derisory”, writing: “It is not enough to denounce all racisms in general when this specific strain rages unchecked.”

Deaths often been subject of dark humour all through the ages. Nathan having worked in a hospital can tell some dreadful jokes about death dying and illness. Doesn't mean anything other than emergency workers tend to need a release.

Not being an emergency worker I don't see the humour in it but that's just a different sense of humour.

I can remember my uncle telling us an awful joke about suicides on the railway, his job was clearing them up, we were all shocked but obviously that was funny to him and his colleagues.

Re: Ugly Looney Labour Anti-Semitism Rears Again

As Ms Harman was not present in the concentration camps this hardly applies to her .

A friend of mine is an train driver she has had two suicide deaths on her line
Both times she was severely traumatised and I believe most train drivers are after someone has jumped in front of their trains .

I somehow doubt they are having an in house chortle about the sad death of another human being.
