What a total dick!

So Prince Harry doesn't think the terms 'Paki' and 'Raghead' are racist because they were said in Jest. What a penis. It's just as racist as any other term used to slag off another race, regardless if they were in jest or not!

Then on the way home, I heard loads of people on the radio saying they don't think it's racist because... "People in Britain are called Brits and people in Scotland are called Scots, why not call people from Pakistan, Pakis". I can't believe there are people about who think that the work Paki is just an abbr. rather than a racist term. People are genuinely offended and history has made the word a racist. In fact, why not take the rudest word (C) and say that is the same as the term 'lady garden'? Well surely they're equal in offence? They mean the same thing! Oh that's right, society and history has deemed one offensive, so it's not used! IDIOT.

So Harry, I'm sure you'll read this post... For the record... wog, coon, raghead, Paki are racist words and can cause offence. Stop being a twat. Stop making Prince Phillip look good.

something got to Simon? It is a very racial term and I would be very upset to hear it being used in the street. I know you are going to say I have used the P word before when mucking about indoors, but there is no way I would use those sort of names to their face it is very offensive to them. I can quite understand how they could then turn on the locals ( actually how many of them are English?) when such language is used. I think that until schools help adopt a better attitude to colour/ethnicity things are not going to improve. Also Harry is a Prince Philip in disguise. Philip has made so many gaffs in the past, it is going to come down the generations of the Royal Family who don't live in the real world.
