Re: Coon no more

Waiting on my favourite movie to be banned Cocoon and Cocoon The Return.

Lets hope that non of these numbskulls follow House.
They will have a field day with that series.

We should complain because a raccoon skin is what a raccoon hat is made of and a coonhound chases/hunts up the raccoon- and as well as the potential for being thought racist - it is also cruelty to animals. Any Davy Crockett statues should be demolished immediately.

Re: Coon no more

There's a rich list of ethnic slurs by ethnicity here, but fear not fellow cheese lovers.

Strange how we just laugh off the slurs directed at us as white Brits. Perhaps our brains are more developed.

Many white Brits have behaved so badly in the past, some still do like the evil sewer rat Farage, it is not surprising slurs are directed at them.

Farage is my hero. I would welcome him into my home anytime for a cuppa or a beer. He is the greatest man to have ever lived. I'm sure if you met him you would see sense and grow to love him too.

Our Nige? A classic case of come the hour cometh the man.

By introducing popularism into the BREXIT game he ensured that the public had a clear individual they could associate with.

IMO Garage should have been ennobled to The Upper House when we left the EU but sadly was not and so most certainly should be the moment the awful transition period ends ESPECIALLY if we end up with a no deal outcome.
