Am I the only person who thinks this is somewhat passe? A faux jovial OP that is at least 30 years past its sell by date in terms of humour?

Maybe I am?


Actually I find the whole sentiment of it in poor taste.


You can do better than this Bigbadwolf.

In a dull but worthy way...


I was intrigued that for the 1.2 billion Chinese who don't speak English, they all knew one word for the Brits - Hooligan.


It's kind of twee and 1970s, but a massive part of the Chinese perception of the UK as a socially failed state.


There's no irony in the fact that it's Irish of course. Chancers.

On The BBWolf scale this rates at about a 3.1


He can do a lot worse but his eviction notice is still on a short leash.

'Doubt' is uncertainty. The only thing that is certain in life is that you will die. Why worry about uncertainty when you know the result. Enjoy, embrace uncertainty.........life would be boring without it!!!

    • I don't need you to tell me to 'fight against' racism.  I know what it looks it like, thank you.  And China would be our enemy whether we were in Europe or not (and has been for a long time), so that's immaterial.  I remember covering an EDL march 12 years ago, when there was a Cons-Lib Dem coalition, so the idea that this is a new problem is rubbish. BUT Reform is doing an excellent job of galvanising a minority in reaction to smug liberals like you, who blame the electorate's collective ignorance for all the country's demons.  What right have you for a moral mandate? 
    • Both Labour and Conservatives can remove the threat of a Reform government by making making two major policy promises. And these are .......... (1) categorically state that they will take Britain out of the ECHR and (2) Undertake to remove any new small boat arrivals to Rwanda or wherever else. Reform is basically a single issue party and adopting (1) & (2) would send Reform into obscurity. The country has had enough of our judiciary making a gold-plated interpretation of the ECHR statutes.  
    • You fight against by not pretending. By calling it what it is. Instead of slyly pretending they are not racist “actually”  recognise what the country is facing and say “no” why do you even need to ask the question?
    • How does one 'fight against...'?
