Look, I'm Welsh, and I'm sure like many of my countrymen, we found Anne's comments funny, and not at all racist. The 12 people who complained to the BBC about this need a good slapping. And why do the "authorities" even bother wasting time and money investigating crap like this, when theres some seriously bad crimes happening out there.

This is what you get when you vote Labour you know ... :lol: :lol: :lol: :(

Quoted post

Peter Rogers, a former Conservative Welsh assembly member and now an independent councillor for Anglesey, had criticised the inquiry at the time. He has now said it was "political correctness gone mad". Too bloody true.

Petty arsed little people trying for their &#39;moment of glory&#39;, as there is nothing else in their lives that makes them in the slightest bit noteworthy or interesting. This is the way the UK is going, following close on the footsteps of the Americans <_< :huh: .
