wasnt there so dont know
however, the comments floating about bewilder me. I have seen many
people completely relaxed and 'un-racist/discriminatory' in employment
and socialising who behind their closed doors still refer to coons,
chinks, paki bstrds, dykes, uphill gardeners, jon chapman, rag heads,
spasos, cabbages. You can scare people to not behave in a certain way
in public but you cant change their institutionalism through law. When
the stress is on thats what surfaces.

and the "i have a gay friend or a black man as a neighbour" is
cringeworthy to the umpteenth degree

When they tried to ban Ian Dury after his spasticus song - now thats funny
