One of the things I'm proud of being an Irish Supporter in travelling the world is being treated with respect and showing respect towards other nations.
 
To refer to the French as Frogs and Onion Breath (to quote only a few) is pure Racism!
 
If we were referred to with similar names, how many topics on this Forum would be raised?
 
sl*g off as many nations as you want, but don't go down the Racist Route, please!Angry

I fail to see the racism in this tbh. He used it to describe people of the same race as his own unless those who do not possess a drivers licence are a race themselves.

While the aim may not have been to racially abuse people, the term refers to race and is generally considered a racist term, and the context of its use was utterly bizarre.

No worse than inbreeds etc which is regularly used to describe for example, fans of a certain county teams/people from certain counties, fans of a certain type of music and such like.

Isn't that the term they use in Harry Potter for those who aren't witches or wizards?

Inbreds is not a racist term. I would suggest that half-caste which is certainly a racist term is a much more similar comparison.

We'll have to agree to disagree. IMO they're all similar apart from half cast which has obvious explicit overtones.
