Since I replied to your last comment I noticed the Beeb has an article about them on their main news feed page.

DB has made many references of chimps dressed up with respect to mocking 'posh people'. The difference this time being it could be alluded as having racial overtones because of the royal baby's mixed raced heritage. It's unfortunate that we've allowed what a small minority use as a racist term to hijack how we communicate in general, in that referencing a monkey/chimp etc with respect to a black/mixed race person is now unequivocally deemed as being racist. I once bought some white friends a 'Cheeky Monkey' t-shirt for their new born. If I do the same for some black friends would that be seen as racist? Should school trips to the zoo avoid looking at the monkey enclosure for fear of being called racist towards black/mixed race children? Context and intent is everything, and in DB's case IMO he wasn't being racist and therefore shouldn't have been sacked for that reason, and I'm sure that not foreseeing the inferred racial overtones is a sacking offence either...

I wouldn't have a problem with that if the Beeb didn't give a platform for known racist organisations like Generation Identity, yet they do...

Week 33 points... Week 33 table...

The registertovote.eu site has been closed down at the request of the Electoral Commission. The Electoral Commission said: ?We urge EU citizens that want to vote in the European parliamentary elections in the UK to only apply to register to vote through their local council or official websites. We welcome efforts by campaigners to encourage eligible electors to register to vote. However, our advice to anyone not yet registered is to only apply directly at www.gov.uk/registertovote.?

A question to Labour voting Remainers out there who still back Jeremy Corbyn despite yesterday's abysmal showing and the gaslighting defence he gave. Why?...

As an aside, has anyone received their European polling card yet?...

The link highlights that EU citizens might think that they are registered to vote for the European elections because they are registered for other UK elections, but for the European elections they also need to register using another specific form... European Parliament elections are on 23 May - as an EU citizen, you're entitled to vote here in the United Kingdom. Even if you are registered to vote in other UK elections, for these elections the UK government requires an extra step to register to vote. You have to fill in the UC-1 form and send it to your local electoral registration offices. This is normally publicised well in advance, but because of Brexit, most people haven?t been told. This tool will allow you to submit the UC-1 form online. Don?t lose your vote!

Outrageous that last week only 300 of 3.7m EU citizens living in UK were registered to vote in EU elections! Monumental cockup. We've spent the last 24 hours building this to let people send the UC-1 form online. Please RT or send to EU citizens in UK: https://registertovote.eu/

Registering to vote in the European elections is very easy if you're not registered or you're unsure if you are registered or not. Deadline to do so is 7th May... http://getvoting.org/

It's disappointing that the 3 remain parties, LibDems, Change UK, and Greens haven't agreed some form of umbrella grouping remainers can vote for, or agree a strategy to stand aside and let just one of the parties stand in each area. In lieu of such pragmatic, sensible cooperation, and also because the elections are based on the D'Hondt PR system, my vote will go to the party that is doing best in the polls for whatever area we come under. Here's an explainer how D'Hondt works...
