that’s no ‘woman’, harp, that is a welsh woman called Clive lol.

Take care, she can bite.

Just sayng

read posts more carefully, Mr Harp, rather than use them for cheap debating points.

I’ll write what I like, not what you want me to write. If you don’t see them as relevant – fine. Care I?

My status in jc is either fragile or, often, zilch.

If you had been around longer, you would know that. That’s not being patronising (you seem to be very…[Read more]

Claire has a very Welsh sense of invective – and inventive, too.

I do hope I’m not the future victim of it.

strokes Claire – nice lady, nice lady lol

I did argue why – Boo was used as a counterpoint. Didn’t see the necessity for anything else.

I gave the reason I didn’t like The Guardian as a paper – I particularly dislike the Guardian mindset. I think I’m allowed to. If you want to discuss why, set up a thread, and I may respond to it. If you don’t want to discuss why, that’s fair enough -…[Read more]

Moon, you see something I haven’t seen.

Maybe you’re right, maybe you’re wrong.

It’s just not what I see.

The John Seymour article from the Guardian (a paper I really don’t like) quoted by Mr Harp is over the top – assuming that if any kids obtained a golly, they were being absorbed into the racist culture of the adult world.

Read Boo’s posts…

I’m doing something wrong.

No-one’s ever called me a perv on chat.

Feel quite left out.

You could just wear it while casually sauntering around places like St Paul’s, South London or Manningham in Bradford. I say that because I doubt you’ll find the answer here.

Good luck with that research.

ahem..that’s a lot of places to t…[Read more]

the fate of my brooch turns on the outcome of this debate!

*hides me golliwog brooch form the Robinson’s jamjar, worn since 1961

an interesting discussion, with good posts from Ms K, Wanda and Mr Harp.

Do you know if any Asian/black groups think that the use of gollies is racist, and if so why?.

Ms K, as a fully paid-up member of the Gillingham KKK (does her bum look big in this bed-sheet?), doesn’t seem to be sure.

once again agrees with Lucy..

most Americans think their gun control laws are crazy. The right to bear arms is enshrined in the US Constitution for good reasons – as a guard against state tyranny, whereby only the state’s armed forces and police are armed – but the gun laws are berserk over there

agrees with Lucy, it depends on the ye of the beholder.

Most complaints I’ve heard come from whites??

I used to love the golly brooches from jamjars – to me they were a status symbol.

If I had thought of them as racist n any way, I’d have shunned them for reasons of personal safety – my dad was always ready to give us a clip on the ear if we…[Read more]

Blossom, I’ve been in the room recently and the people there seem quite pleasant. There are rough edges we all have, but generally it’s a nice place to talk in.

I know that there are some who like to make an impact by being nasty, but the number of genuine psychos is probably about the same as you gt in real life.

You seem to find the anonymity…[Read more]

Lucy, they’re refugees, not scroungers.

Thy’re fleeing a war zone, and mixed in are illegal economic refugees. We, the UK (not Ireland), are partly responsible for that war zone which has created such intense suffering.

If you turn them back, if you send them home, then they’re going to come back to you because their families are in danger at…[Read more]
