		<description><![CDATA[I believe that hypocrisy in the racism debate does matter. While not knowing anything about Brian True-May I am not willing to brand him as racist for the handful of comments I have been fed during a media frenzy. Similarly nobody with any intelligence or sincerity who follows politics can seriously consider Dianne Abbott a racist as she snuggles up beside Michael Portillo on This Week on a Thursday evening.

If we continue to turn on each other every time one of us is accused of racism then we will all learn to disguise our opinions and this will not be a good thing. I am told by English friends who work in America that it is almost impossible to have an intelligent conversation at work. Nobody even tries as they are all afraid of tripping up over racism, sexism, agism or any other bloody ism. Yet do we consider America to be the least racist of countries? The election of President Obama would suggest that they are yet the disgraceful attacks on Mr. Obama indicate otherwise.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&amp;blog=2000120&amp;post=4685&amp;subd=talkingbollocks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was a discussion on Radio 4's PM program this afternoon where some bloke speculated that two years ago, during the G8 demonstration, the police were too heavy handed leading to the death of an innocent man. He thought that perhaps the police had reacted by becoming more restrained.

If this is true then somebody should explain to the police the difference between a legal demonstration and a riot.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&amp;blog=2000120&amp;post=4142&amp;subd=talkingbollocks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And that is what mutli-culturalism and a tolerance is about. Acceptance of difference.

Yes, it portrays a romanticised version of English village life. So what? It's fiction! Do we really believe that East Enders is an honest portrayal of East London? Are we to ban Miss bloody Marple? Do we really want a society where producers are forced to ensure that each program have a scientifically selected cross section of British society? What about the young, the old, the disabled? 
What sickens me with this sort of thing is the way the lame minded jump on the band wagon and repeat the accusation of racism like some McCarthyist witch hunt. Once someone is accused the pack falls on them and tear them to pieces. This evening some dull witted comedian named Lloyd Langford on BBC Radio 4's Now Show joined in the abuse. It seems to be a general trend with comedians that they resort to joining in supposed-anti-racist hate speeches to get the audience on their side.
I have never heard of Brian True-May until this week and have no idea if he has racist tendencies or not. I do know that producing a fictional TV show based on a traditional portrayal of an English village is not racist and that indulging in groundless accusations of racism is bigoted prejudice.
People used to say that Nationalism was the last refuge of the scoundrel. Now it seems that prejudice is the first fall back of comedians.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&amp;blog=2000120&amp;post=3850&amp;subd=talkingbollocks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I find it provocative because it follows The Pope's announcement of a new “Apostolic Constitution” to provide a legal framework for the many thousands of Anglicans and former Anglicans who are unhappy with Anglican policy toward homosexuals to convert to Catholicism. It is also provocative because, Queen Elizabeth II is the head of The Church of England and traditionally makes a speech on Christmas Day.

We should remember that the leaders of all religions are self appointed. They are men who think they are right and that everyone should do what they say. Considering the bad press that Catholicism has received regarding rampant and unrepentant child abuse this year I think this blatant empire building is ill timed and demonstrates that religions dignitaries have no more claim to morality that the rest of us.

As a good agnostic I am fairly tolerant of all manner of religious idiocy but religions poaching followers can easily lead to real confrontation. I often find it useful to reverse an argument or situation to getter a better handle on it. HOw would it be if The Queen did  a Christmas message on 104.5 FM Roma and announced a scheme for Catholics who a unhappy with their kids being abused by Catholic priests to convert to The Church of England?

With the situation in Ireland still fragile we do not need some bloody German stirring up sectarian antagonism.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&amp;blog=2000120&amp;post=3358&amp;subd=talkingbollocks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So, after turning a blind eye to this behaviour for decades the United States is finally putting pressure on Israel to stop building. Israel is now insisting that the Palestinians recognise Israel as a “Jewish” state and in return they will stop building for a limited period.

It strikes me that the Israelis are behaving shamefully. While continuing to kick the fallen Palestinians they have paused briefly to shout “Say the land is ours - Say it!”<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&amp;blog=2000120&amp;post=3108&amp;subd=talkingbollocks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The American pastor should be condemned of course but in the same breath we should condemn every little bastard shouting his mouth of in a street protest while burning an American flag. I was told by a Pakistani friend that the shouting mobs who burn American flags are often hired by richer more intelligent people so it would be useful to expose these people to give the lie to idea that the flag burning is an can be blamed on lack of education.

It would also help if prominent statesman in Muslim countries were as strenuous in condemning insults to Americans as Obama has been in defending Muslims.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&amp;blog=2000120&amp;post=2918&amp;subd=talkingbollocks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Firstly let's get this straight. It is ridiculous to say that life begins at conception. A sperm is alive and an egg is alive. Life is a continuum. One unappreciated fact about the human race is that we are all one continuous stream of life going back thousands, if not, millions of years so I guess a new born baby is millions of years old. Listen to Unbroken Chain by the Grateful Dead for more on this.

Secondly yes, a woman's body is her own to do with as she wishes but at some point one has to realise that she is carrying a child. What are you going to do, allow abortion up to 1 minute before delivery? At this point the accusation is usually this is unfair as I am a man and therefore will be put in this position. The answer to this is: Sorry, life is unfair!<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&amp;blog=2000120&amp;post=2830&amp;subd=talkingbollocks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I listened to Any Questions last week with the BNP leader Nick Griffin. I&#8217;d previously blogged about this and a friend email me to say that she thought that, contrary to my opinion, some people were too stupid to be exposed to Griffin&#8217;s sort of talk. I&#8217;d respond that, while it&#8217;s true that stupid people [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&amp;blog=2000120&amp;post=1381&amp;subd=talkingbollocks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The real question is this: Is it racist for a company to adjust the ethnic mix of characters in advertising to suit the target country? In my view it is not, it happens all the time. Advertisers design images so that the target audience will empathise with the people in the commercials and for this they try to reflect the ethnic make up of each country.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&amp;blog=2000120&amp;post=1172&amp;subd=talkingbollocks&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
