Fie on you, BBC, for using racist out-of-date terms like 'gypsy'.

Gypsy Twittering Poll Overload
Twitterers claim victory over loaded Mail Poll.
This follows an article by Richard Littlejohn, 'Fast-tracking the Tarmacing community on the NHS', which criticises the new regulations on making sure travellers and gypsies get access to proper healthcare (see my earlier post). The paper ran a poll asking the public “Should the NHS allow gipsies to jump the queue?” A campaign by Twitterers overloaded the Mail's system with 'yes' votes.
I wonder how many of them are gypsies or travellers?

Politically Correct Travelling Persons De-Activate Police Helicopter
Who would have thought gypsies, sorry travellers, would be in the advance guard of the fightback? - Gypsies trash £5million police helicopter.
Not just Labour who are desperate: "If so many people in Britain (80% was the usual figure quoted) wanted a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, how come only 43% bothered voting?" asks Nosemonkey's Eutopia. I'm sure the answer's pretty fucking obvious but I can't be bothered arguing the case.
This says something about somebody or other: Jesus and Princess Diana lead poll of dead people we most want to meet. Except that as there's absolutely no evidence that a man called Jesus existed, he shouldn't be on the list at all. That doesn't make it any better to have the spoilt airhead close behind, though.
