To me this shows how easy it is for people who want to be offended, in order to make a political point, to be offended by taking an everyday non-race related comment such as ‘cheeky little monkey’ and blowing it out of all proportion. It is an agenda. It is those that do this that are obsessed with skin colour and are effectively racist.
