Absolutely stupid decision, PC gone mad!!!!

It's not just PC gone mad. It's active fascist intimidation. You must think this way or you will be punished.

The problem is all this racist nonsense is all one way!! You can use any stereotype about a white Englishman or American or Frog (see what I did there!!) and no one will bat an eyelid, but refer to any minority in any stereotypical way and you are going to hell!! Is all bullshit!!

Wouldnt call the Chinese a minority! lol
This country dosent even know what Facism is just looks at Mussolini and follows suit, look at the reputation of Oswald Moseley in this country and the British Union of Facists history has been completely fabricated in this country to point a highly negative picture of one of the most forward thinking politicians this country has ever seen
So what is our Government which gives millions of pounds of cash to build roads in Romania and to African rebel governments yet some of its people are forced to go for food handouts or cant afford heating, We cant say anything and told how to think and what is `pc correct` yet bringing back Fox Hunting and going back to the 12th cent is ok? We live in a Tyranny
Total crap Dave Whelan deserves far better as does Football and this country, 1984 is here

It's nothing short of a disgrace the way Whelan has been hounded in this case. To say that he has to go on an education course as well! Unbelievable.
The people in charge of this kind of crap are the ones who need educating.
