Title: No fun in the world
Post by: STEMO on 28 September 2018, 07:30:14
Dover district councillor Bob Frost has been suspended from the Conservative party for a couple of tweets he made to one of his Labour opposites while she was at the conference in Liverpool. He said the Marie Stopes abortion clinic in the city was funded by Liverpool council as part of it's crime prevention strategy.  ;D
He also advised her to visit the slave museum where, he was so impressed with service, he bought two of the staff. (A bit dodgy, that one).

British humour at it's best, but sadly misunderstood these days.

You can't make jokes out of such things[or anything else for that matter]these days as someone on a distant planet might get offended.

He should be suspended or whatever for the sheer stupidity of thinking that he would get away with it.

I once worked for a big and very image aware American company. We were told to never do anything that you would not want to see the newspapers. Good advice for anyone in the public eye. I'm not so I can now do and say what I like  ;)

Ugly hirsute man-hating feminists are amongst the most humourless people I have come across. :-\

This fella has previous.

He has used the term 'jungle bunnies'.......and made reference to 'single mothers waddling along with their 'push-chaired spawn'

He must be after the top job at UKIP. ;)

A shame they could not just say to him that it is in bad taste from their point of view and next time they will report him rather than sending off straight away.

If he has previous maybe they have already been there.


On another matter a bloke said he was going to hit me with the neck of a guitar. I think it was a fret!!


Tadaa


I'm here every week.

He'd be telling Macron he stunk of garlic and reminding Merkel who won the war. Nothing wrong with that.  ;D

The thing is with any humour is somebody will be the brunt of the punchline. Be it the Irish in the traditional English, Scotman and Irishman, or women in the Harry Enfield "Know your limits" and so on.

The trouble is we have too many you like to hear their own voice too much, so always complain.  And they need to be terminated.


Obviously, when making humorous remarks, the audience needs to be considered. But a poor taste joke should be classed as that, a poor taste joke. Not the spawning of Satan.
