Default Sigh... Nanny State again...

I thought their advert was hillarious, but I doubt Status Quo really gave two hoots.

Everyone is terrified of upsetting someone these days!

BBC News - Brighton council apology to Status Quo over advert

Too many black one legged lesbian muslim liberals in local goverment if you ask me

I work for the local government and I have to confess that there are so many support groups for black, gay, bi-sexual, "black and gay", bi-curious, disabled and many many others. I often feel left out. I am white and quite boring, I don't have a mission in life and I don't have any support groups to go to. Thinking about forming a new group called "ain't got no group...group" we could meet up 1 day per week and bitch about all the other groups. But then again given the cuts due today I could be in the dole que very soon...

lol support groups for the bi-curious!!

I'm white, fat, like Star Trek, 4x4's and fascinated by lorries, wonder if there's a support group that can help me?

If need be, can do a good Jamaican accent, happy to limp, and would make a great lesbian?
