I think most here would be guilty

Personally I think El Gordo should change his name, as I find it offensive and indicative of a colour-based predudice...

'gordon man-of-all-creeds-and-colours-including the-english-as-long-as-they-elect-me' might be a suitable replacement...

'gordon brown' just shows downright bias, and he should be put on trial...

And beheaded.

This worries me more than the BNP:

There should be "consequences" from saying Islam is "wicked and evil".

That would be a sinister statement from any government politician, but Falconer is Lord Chancellor FFS! What next, "consequences" for saying socialism is "deceitful and incompetent"?

I notice that the BBC haven't got a Have Your Say running on this. They know what they'll get - a shedload of support for the BNP geezers!

Politicians should not be changing laws to get what they want in court.

Well said. Nicely summarises the entire problem in one sentence.

Especially given the abolition of the double jeopardy safeguards and the current love of retrospective legislation.

Yes, it is interesting how they tend to avoid certain subjects that they know will reveal what people really think....
