totally ridiculous. Even if it was offensive, which I don't think it is, the guy should be allowed to sell them.
It's the Telegraph so the story is not exactly reliable and as for the earlier comment (not Warb) about Left Wing Political Correctness.
Political correctness is a rather clumsy phrase meaning common courtesy.
I see nothing wrong with reminding people that referring to brown skinned people as Wogs isn't nice, especially when it became popular in the seventies where almost every show was peppered with racist and sexist material.
Britain hasn't had a left wing government since 1979, it hasn't had a left wing parliamentary party since 1994.
How anyone can say they have enough of the left when all we have is right wing greedy Tories wearing different colour rosettes screwing up the country I don't know.
What the UK needs is a Socialist government for a few years to allocate wealth to do things that need doing (like building cheap houses), providing employment and making the hyper rich a little less rich for a short period.
Once people are making things which China wants to buy then you can go back to having a right wing government but it's the hopping on the right foot that the South East of England wants the rest of us to do that is screwing it up for everyone else.
The country is unbalanced and when that happens people start looking for a scapegoat.
It's easier to spot an Arab by their look and a Pole by their accent than a pampered Eton Knob now that they wear jeans.
