From: Vestin Pance Category: Art Date: 06 February 2009 Time: 09:22 AM Review: No matter how glib we might secretly accuse the PCB of being, there can be no justification for weighing up approval or disapproval. If Carol Thatcher is not in command of cerebral faculties the majority of conscious beings seem to use on a day to day basis she has no rightful voice as a commentator through broadcast media. If she is bereft of the emotional sensibilities to gauge defamatory or hurtful comments, well, the same applies. The Royal Family got away with it, they always do but that is no reason for a sea of brainless Telegraph readers to display the thickness as well as the shade of their skins by garnering empathy in the name of the Nanny State, pity they don't push as hard to ban I.D. cards. As for context, Jonathan Ross is a satirical commentator and Russel Brand similarly, there are comparisons but I assert the view that both of these satirical commentators/presenters have staked out and established their categories and no way you could call them racist. For the Royal Family to receive support from a man who likes being called sooty is beneath contempt and yet again lots of supportive grunts. Whilst it is true that Carol Thatcher is hardly a popular figure, only recently reappearing in the British consciousness via trash teevee's I'm a thing get me thinger, I would'nt mind wagering that the majority of BBC sympathizers for their decision just could'nt be bothered to support the obvious, Racism is no longer in doubt it is morally, clinically and emotionally wrong.
