Do you take the money out of your wife's housekeeping when she accidentally smashes a plate?
Housekeeping, FFS. She has her own money.

Sorry - don't understand the question. My post was basically questioning the motivation of the OP....he doesn't normally start a thread without a point, and I was suggesting the point was to stir shit. Are we supposed to reply defending Sugar's 1970s style racism, or attacking him? OP sits back and watches 'snowflakes' defend the indefensible.
He will say he's just having a laugh.
Plenty of actually funny things to have a laugh about.
And he should change his avatar. Bobby Sands, FFS? That's a real laugh. Ho ho ho. IRA terrorist starves himself to death. Ha ha. Manwhile Bushy's army mates are killed by the IRA. Ho ho. Oh, sorry, isn't that part of the joke?
To be fair, anyone using a Bobby Sands mockery as an avatar on a football site needs to get some ****ing help.
Hard right was MUCH more mainstream in the mid and late 70s. There were runours of a police state. 'They are coming over here, going on the dole and taking our jobs'. Common mantra back then, mad though it sounds. Especially in areas and by people who had never seen or spoken to a black person in the flesh. Like in Hove.
Most people haven't a hope in hell of getting a property off the BHCC housing list, even worse when you see the amount of empty properties around the city and the amount of space where you could build. The trouble is the more you build the more rents will drop and vested interests win out all the time
it may or not have been like that in the 70s , i tend to find the opposite these days , people in areas like hove whos lives arent reall touched by immigration or dont have much interaction with immigrants tend to expound the wonders of multiculturalism and immigration
Many comments in the past that would not offend anyone would be seen as racist these days and I'm not sure a lot of people know what racism actually is.If you voted brexit you're apparently racist and I like a good chinky on a Saturday night and that makes me racist like most of the country I guess.
How long before "only fools and horses" is band completely ?
Funny enough the big fat whining idiots are white people"mostly young student twats types" as they get more offended than the ones who it's actually targeted at.

A duo of smug, self righteous BBC Radio5 presenters the other week, commented that they now squirm at the racism in Faulty Towers.
Bloody hell, if they get their way, we'll become the most ridiculously over sensitive nation on earth.
Faulty Towers parodied a (white) English snob. Side stories did not set out to denegrade the sub-race of Catalonians, Germans, Americans, an Irishman, old ladies, Africans. They were amusing asides, with the joke invariably on the lunacy of the snob and his chaotic operation.
Agreed.
The outrage brigade on NSC love to be thought of as a liberal crowd of right-on Brightonians, unless there is something that could be mildly disagreeable to their way of thinking and then, the righteous harrumphing gets up a head of steam.
Unless, of course, the targets are either toffs or Tories, then its ok!

Back of the net!
You're not far wrong.
Whilst unwilling to type on NSC with fury against anti Semites / Holocaust deniers in the Labour Party.
A strange set of selective morals.
One of the supposed great British traits is tolerance. Where is your tolerance over what was a silly mistake by Sugar for which he has profusely apologised?
pissed again harry ?

No, just annoyed. I had you blocked for months. But my post was probably unfair. Unfair? I don't know, to be fair. I don't like your avatar. And the thread seemed like fishing. You seem to be cheerful enough, though, and not spitting feathers like you can do. Which is good. And you didn't rise to my pissy provocation. This may come as a surprise, but mostly I worry about you. What you have exprienced, at that age, must have had effects and sometimes the effects seem all too evident (e.g., the rants and the avatars). Sometimes I suspeect you may be unware of this. Stay cheerful. I look forward to a long chat sometime. All the best
OK, nominate someone you feel would be prepared to go on TV, and argue that Alan Sugar has every right to make a racist joke and should not be criticised for doing so. Given that Sir Alan tweeted a racist joke, I would say he has more in common with Jim D than just skin colour.
