Danny Baker Sacked for "Racist" Tweet About Royal Baby

I'm more shocked that he (apparently) didn't realise it would cause uproar and would mean getting sacked. Even though the baby is "75% white".

Mind you I was surprised he, on two separate occasions, in the past, tweeted he wished cancer on the families of people he was angry with. I couldn't imagine any other broadcaster doing that - particularly those working for the BBC.

But what do you think, good people?

Maybe so, but the quality of the thread title leaves a lot to be desired.

I saw it and tried to correct it but hasn't taken.

Apologies to anyone affected.

Anyway, do your best to focus on the thread in hand - if you can.

And please don't concern yourself if you make a typo - it can happen to the best of us.
