    Some people really need to get a life and stop interfering in the business of others.

    I see she's been named and now everyone knows she's a grass.

    What stupidity.

    My first fiancee (later deceased) was a 'black' girl . She collected Robinsons 'Gollies'... the badges.

    Loved them. Laughed about it.

    People are so far up their damned PC arses these days.

    You can still buy Golliwogs on Amazon. When I had one as a child we never knew about black people so there was no connection, it was just a rag toy and I like them even now.

    Who decides what's racist and what isn't? And why has British culture been ripped apart?

    I used to save the Robertson's Jam gollywogs; used to like the Black & White Minstrel show,

    It clearly was an act of folly
    To go and ban an innocent golly,
    It really IS a damn disgrace
    Removing the happy, smiling face
    That once adorned our breakfast jampots,
    Just because ... ... some bampots
    Decree we Brits act with circumspect
    By always being politically correct
    !
