Footballer John Terry has been declared Not Guilty following one of the most stupid court cases of recent years. He had been charged with racial abuse, following an altercation with fellow player, Anton Ferdinand, during a match last October. Terry claimed he was provoked into responding to a comment, made by Ferdinand, about his past […]

Wootton Bassett Does Not Need Islam 4 UK
The previously little known web-based extremist group, Islam4UK, has managed to grab attention in the media by creating an outcry over its plans to hold a demonstration in the Wiltshire town of Wootton Bassett – the town whose people have lined the streets to honour the passing coffins of our military personnel returned from Afghanistan.

Life On Planet Concussion!
It has been a while since I last posted on here, following my spectacular dive down the stairs and my teeth numbing stop, using my head as a brake, against a doorframe. Since my unplanned flight, I have been living on Planet Concussion. It is a strange world I entered after needing the rather confusing […]
BBC Bans The Word ‘Butcher’
I am irritated! Tonight, while travelling home from work, I was listening to the excellent Eddie Nestor who hosts the drivetime programme on BBC London 94.9FM.

Hannan’s latest ‘crime’ is to tell […]
Politically Correct ‘Block’ Heads Remove Black As A Colour!
This should not take long to write…. The politically correct management of the Citizens’ Advice Bureau has decreed that spam emails should not be placed on a ‘blacklist’ but instead be placed on a ‘blocklist’. Can you spot the subtle difference? Clever isn’t it? A spokesperson said: Our approach to language is not prescriptive or […]
BNP? – One Lump Or Two?
There’s been much ado in today’s press about a guest attending one of the Queen’s annual garden parties to be held in June. Nick Griffin is the leader of the British National Party (BNP) and is being taken to the event as the guest of a BMP member of the London Assembly. London’s mayor, Boris […]
Guilty Joke!
Q. "What do you call a Pakistani cloakroom attendant?" A. "Me hat, me coat." Did the above joke make you chuckle or did it offend you? If you chuckled are you feeling you are racist or are you just amused by jokes that are a simple play on words? If you happen to originate from […]
