[Liverpudlian bus driver who was fired after he accused his Scottish boss of racism when she mimicked Harry Enfield's 'calm down, calm down' 'Scousers' sketch, loses employment tribunal Antony Ryan, 43, was offended when his boss mimicked Harry Enfield sketch Liverpool-born Mr Ryan complained it was 'racism' and took two days off work Mr Ryan was sacked by Shetland-based coach company for unauthorised leave Employment tribunal found the jibe wasn't racist and not a reason to skip work] So Glad he lost his appeal, Harry Enfield is a Legend. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...rs-sketch.html Ref: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dw9RuwD9sqQ |
being Liverpudlian is not a race

Yes that's what the worker failed to understand. It is great his Scottish Boss can have a laugh. |
Good job she didn't say the Waynetta Slob catchphrase of "I am smoking a fag" or he'd have claimed homophobia.

Lots of people say "calm down, calm down!" in a silly voice, I never realised it was a Harry Enfield thing! With the way some things culturally osmosotise, I wonder if other people use it without knowing where it's from.
But anyway, the bus driver was obviously trying it on. |

Fair, they fired him. |
