These are all conversations we’ve had before so I really do not see the point. Plus it will only result in more vile abuse and I’d really rather not disrupt Phil and Gav’s evenings any further.


I've never asked you 3 simple questions before.

I still get a downvote for them though - it's not a good look.

He wasn’t PM at the time, not that that is an excuse. All I was saying is that he had made some very ill advised comments in the past which taken in isolation certainly appear offensive but that I do not believe he meant them in such a way.


what are you on about "ill advised " are you saying someone advised him to say those things.?

Yes. But you seem to forget parts of the conversation, and the questions that you have avoided before.

As with telling people not to be sweary, when you have been sweary yourself, it’s indicative.

Well he can't answer can he?

The truth is we have someone on the forum who it wouldn't be much of a stretch to describe as having sociopathic tendencies.

I don't mind admitting that this place would be a lot better with him gone.

Agree. It’ll be a huge success.

It’s a reflection of the continued decline of the nation in terms of international influence.


I thought it was more to do with all the tvvats, but you’re probably right. We’ve been slowly conditioned to want this fact free, right wing, populist nationalist, opinion based, shock jock style of entertainment (I use the term loosely). It’s just an extension of what the media have been pumping out for years. Sad, but there we are.

“ Chalk and cheese to the cowardly, racist, weasel he’s replaced.”

Is what Paz said about a certain political leader.

So one leader is racist, based on a definition, clearly written down by a minority group.

Another leader, is ill-advised, making a quip, or satirical, it is not possible to define abuse, based on context.

I have to say at best, that is hypocritical, a person condemning abuse based on a definition and excusing abuse when convenient.

Certainly convenient to forgot some of the things you have said, and questions you ignore, Paz.

You can confirm you are a hypocrite when it comes to racist and homophobic comments, by a simple down arrow.

That pickaninny isn't racist and bumboy isn't homophobic.

The point Eire is making is that Paz refuses to condemn Boris Johnson for using those terms - claiming he was just joking. This is very strange considering how (correctly) he was so outraged at anti-semitism within the Labour party.

I don't want to put words into Eire's mouth, but I think they are wondering a) where the consistency is and B) how someone in 2021 can claim that it's ever ok to use the term 'pickaninny'.

Obviously this is but one of multiple crimes against decency Paz has produced on this forum, but his list is long and our time is short so best stick to racism and homophobia for now.

I’ll let MrsN know that it’s ok for people to call her a picaninnie with a watermelon smile because of the colour of her skin mate. Don’t worry. I’ve got your back.

As for some of my gay mates, I’ll let let them know that being called a tank topped bum boy is just someone having a laugh. They should get over themselves right?

“You really are pretty daft."

You’re 100% correct Newcy. It's reached a point of ridiculousness now. You have my sympathy, having to read this crap.

Paz has been taking the pish out of us all for months now. He repeatedly says things that no decent person would even think let alone voice on a public forum. The kicker is that he then has the audacity to claim that we are the ones who are somehow bullying him!

He's on a wind up. It's absolutely absurd and insulting that he says the things he says and then tries to play the victim. He wouldn't dare say what he says on here to to your face. Or mine. Or anyone's.

There are good people on this site. Diverse people. We deserve better than this.

have you actually read the article where he used the word piccaninny? it's a political attack on uk foreign policy in 2002 and he attempts to depict blair and co as having outdated imperialist attitudes. it's an unpleasant article because of its politics - but he is ridiculing the thinking behind foreign intervention as being, he claims, like 19th century white europeans having a patronising / racist view of grateful and helpless natives. he is claiming (offensively) that that's how the people he is attacking (blair and co) see those populations, he is not implying that that is how he himself sees them. he is accusing people of racist thinking not intending himself to be racist.

but that's all very 2002 and surely it's be done on here before. as the basis for a hate campaign against paz it seems pretty forced.

Both sides love it, if Paz didn't want to get these people riled up he wouldn't make the pointless remark about looking forward to this channel clearly designed to antagonise, and if the other side didn't want to have the exact same debate for the 100000th time where nothing changes then they'd just let his comment slide.

This is of course completely true and I mentioned this some years back but people just put their fingers in their ears. It was an attack on British Imperialism and Tony Blair "big white chief touch down in his big white British taxpayer-funded bird"

I also pointed out the letterbox thing which was actually a defence of female women Muslims - "If you say that it is weird and bullying to expect women to cover their faces, then I totally agree"

If someone has more time perhaps they can find the original full articles.

I just had a look but all you can seem to find is snippets taken out of context - however if people actually thinks Boris Johnson actually goers around calling people Picanninies then they have either never read the article, do not have the brain power to understand it or simply don't want to - or a mix of the three.

Edit; if people think Andrew Neil is right wing then they haven't seen him destroy right wing guests over the years.
