Open letter to those who think that the word "Paki" is illegal.

Indeed people have the right to the vote for thugs, and also the right to criticise them.

I agree completely. I for instance, criticize labour for the damage they have done to Britain. However i don't try to stop people voting that way unlike groups like uaf that actively try to stop people voting for right wing parties and slander them and their voters at any chance.

But there is a difference between a party run by someone who comes out with rather repulsive statements, and democratic parties with whom you disagree.

I think deliberately inciting people to racial hatred, denying the holocaust or idolising Hitler ( proof is a criminal conviction, so it isn't slander) is not comparable with talking about raising taxation. We're talking about the leader here not just exuberant party member on the fringe of conference.

You can't just say they're just another small party, they're not.

When we told Churchill and Zoiderman to pack it in, we meant it. The length of the ban will be determined after mods and admin have discussed it.

Don't rush the discussions, you need to establish a quango to spend a few months on this.

Hey, wim. Quiz question for you. The founder of which European political party is in this photo?

It's weird the way there always seem to be these taboo words, but it's always been the same and is basically human nature I guess.

In 20 years' time it'll probably be illegal to call a homosexual "gay", as this will be considered deeply inoffensive and divisive compared with the approved term "queer".

Easy! Adolf Hitler, NSDAP 1933-1945 (The guy in pic at the top)

Very good. And the gut on the left?

Properties is a bit of a giveaway there. It's Harry Enfield.

Granted taboo words might make a comeback, but do words that were once racial offensive ever lose their affect? If not we will eventually run out of words.

I've no idea who the guy on the left is, but the guy on the right is Angus Deaton.

Do I get a prize?
