Had an Almighty Row in Trafalgar Square Today

realenger thankyou ihate, most diplomatic.

hael - i find the term pikey particulalry offensive as it is symptomatic of the last form of politically and socially accepted racism in our time - that targeted against the romany people. chav has a similar etymology, no matter what the girls from cheltenham ladies college would have us believe. use of the word 'gay' in a derogatory sense would not cause me to intervene, but only because i feel less of a compulsion to address an issue which certainly gets more exposure than the romani racism one. if pushed yes i object to its use in this sense.

what about gypo, that has to be worse than pikey!?!
