It is not Racist at all.

Just stating what a complete idiot she is.
Which bit do you disagree with?

Re: Danny Baker Sacked for "Racist" Tweet About Royal Baby

Hi

A fact of life.

I can take it or leave it.

Such a post about my First Born would have upset my wife.

I have the luxury, of being no one special, of decking him.

Harry does not.

It must hurt him, the frustration of any Father.

Danny is a bully, hiding behind a keyboard and thinking he is clever, knowing that Harry cannot call him out.

Such a post would have reduced my wife to tears.

I would have been in his face straight away.

Now then Hardman, make me cry.

That is just me, I will not apologise for it.

In this case, because the newborn is in the public eye it's calculated and even more thoughtless and crass.
Nothing to do with handwringers, more about standards.
Why would anyone want to employ an idiot like that?
Because he has the ability to see past the humbug and brave enough to say what a whole lot of people are thinking.

Amongst the names entered into the sweepstake at the local pub down here speculation on the kids name before it was launched resulted in the number of Sambo's and Rastas's being quite amazing!

The local pub!!
That's totally different!
I joked privately that I wished they would name him Mohammed!
But never in a million years would I have said it publicly.
What kind of idiot would do that...a thoughtless gobshite.
And he would deserve to lose his job if he were employed by a national institution with standards to preserve.

Seriously?

On the outskirts of a village in Constable Country.

I should just mention that the prize for the first winning entry was a bottle of St. Peters beer!

The tickets were £5 each, a lot more than the price of the beer, and all profits went to the Imperial Cancer fund.

We're funny like that here in Silly Suffolk!


Edited to add - no-one won the bloody beer! Well, who would have expected a stupid name like the poor sod has been lumbered with?

I heard on the news that someone had bet on Archie being the name, at odds of 150:1. Apparently they won eighteen thousand pounds.
