    Don't know what the fuss is about. The Junta were voted in a landslide by the wannabe middle-classes. If Junta doesn't like, Junta raises their little finger and the shadows act accordingly to dispose of said irritation.

      Seems a shame really.

      Russel Brand was in America, on a TV or Radio interview. He was being interviewed by two black presenters and he was doing his usual act and making everyone laugh/cringe.

      He made some reference to all of us being decedents of monkeys or apes and everyone was like, no you can't say that, no way. You could see the shock on his face, he then started saying we should reclaim this word. At the time I thought this was something peculiar to America, looks like this is now a UK thang.

      Shame we are censoring people because someone might get offended, slippery slope. Anyway, I'm always careful with my 39 twitter followers, so im ok.

        Why, we're they creationists?
        Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

            We should just ban all adjectives & be done with it!

              If he was really that good, he'd be running the Labour Party by now. Can we mark him down as a total knob-head?
              His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...

                A little more rope should be supplied, he's doing a good enough job himself.

                  I can understand why Shapland is very upset. As this photo of an ape demonstrates:

                  Alistair Stuart was calling him a ginge!
