Hartlepool Fancy Dress

Ignoring the controversial angle for a second: this is a pretty rubbish fancy dress theme anyway, certainly compared to the Smurf or even penguin efforts. They're evidently losing their touch.

Got to agree that this years theme ain't great aside from the blacking up issue. Stick to smurfs or superheroes. Much more fun.

A sublime own goal by Kick it Out

Couldn't have put it better myself. Bunch of twats! Kick out racism by all means - fully in favour of that - but please also kick out falsely perceiving racism where in fact there is none.

I saw some fella dressed up as Serena Williams and she retweeted it as it was so good. Of course he was 'blacked up' as the idea of fancy dress is to look like whatever you're trying to look like..!

Must have had his bollocks hanging out the bottom of his dress like she does then if it was spot on.

Why? He's iconic and very recognisable.

We agree

Completely daft. Likely to cause offence to whom? .

To the people who have to justify their role in well paid positions in charitable organisations.

The PC brigade, to which we have a battalion patrolling this board and will no doubt be along fairly soon.
