So what do you think should happen now?

Should the Police get involved?
Should the BBC fire him?
Should he be branded a racist for the rest of his days?
Should he give money to a charity?
Or now that he's apologised, shall we just move on?
Or something else?

I don't know nor do I care. Like I said, I don't think any offence was intended by him and like him.

I was responding to you claiming it's not a racist joke, when it is.

But you continue deflecting and moving the goalposts of the discussion. Carry on.

Did I claim it wasn't a racist joke? I thought I just said that we can't keep shouting racist every time a non White is the punchline.

I think those sweets are the business of the lady that won the apprentice.

15 notes for a few little sweets is highway robbery. You'd have to be made of money to purchase them.

Implying the joke doesn't deserve the racist tag?

If you thought it was racist you wouldn't have a problem with it being called such.
