[Jabberwocky]

It's a ridiculous taboo. I'm not saying to go around being racist to everyone you meet but the whole PC thing has gotten out of hand. It's worse than Health and Safety! Look at a lot of comedy shows fromteh 70's - there's no malice and some of them are pretty funny but 'cos they're non-PC they're not shown or are mysteriously "lost".

There's a Polish shop not too far from where I work where it is reputed that non-Polish would-be customers are not tolerated. Good innit?

Lets seem them try and remake Blazing Saddles.

You know, I was thinking about Blazing Saddles when I wrote that and read your comments. The PC brigade would claim it is racist but in reality, Blazing Saddles is holding a mirror up to racism and laughing it's head off!

One of my favorite films ever and Mel Brooks' best.

Django did quite well addressing the subject, no punches pulled.

I haven't read the article, but I agree I think, F1 has many strong qualities, but could do with a lot of improving from the traditional stereotypes, mainly to allow a greater range of people to enjoy the sport, and a wider talent pool, I mean, to a large extent F1 isn't just selected on ability and interest and drive, but also on background and the like.

A greater percentage of Non-European races has helped, and we are seeing some more diversity I think, in terms of driver personality.

I mean, there's nothing wrong with people wearing sun-glasses indoors, and skinny blond women, but well, lets share the love lol.
