Sure can. If I had a pound for every time I’ve been called a fat Welsh bastard and my mother was English!

Sorry Gwilym, your ‘Welsh’ sense of humour went over my head! (Am I allowed to say that?).

I was, of course, being humorous. We have now achieved a ridiculous PC level. Look at this Lisa Aziz racial insult nonsense at ITV and a colleague impersonating Sir Trevor McDonald. I posted on The Times about John Cole and his amazing Belfast accent which was a satirist’s dream. Loosen up and get a sodding sense of humour.

The same as the word ‘Paki’, it’s classed as racist… but guess what, ‘Brit’ is not, the UK and the rest of Europe is going nuts because we have to listen to them and their rights… welcome to Europe.

What on Earth’s racist about the word ‘Argie’!? It’s just an abbreviation, like the word ‘Brit’ or ‘Scot’!

I consider the term ”argie” to be gratuitously insulting and racist. Maybe a raghead will buy it.
