It appears that now stating a fact like 'Ashley Cole' is not ethnically british is now unacceptable and deemed racist. The fact is he is black, his parents came from the west indies and therefore he is not ethnically british, how could anyone deny something that is as plain as the the hand in front of their face. Why can't he be proud of his origins instead of pretending that they don't exist. When Mr Cole fills in a form, what box doesn't he tick, next to ethnicity, White British?, I don't think so!!
 Terry Wogan and Bob Geldof aren't ethnically british either, but they are proud of their origins and knowone pretends otherwise.

Also how hypocritical of the press to be so protective of Mr Cole, when he has been constantly been vilified for his antics, including extra marital affairs, and drunk and disorderly offences, while his angelic missus is climbing mount Kilamanjaro.

This statement sounds like the BBC are moving away from been fair and allowing freedom of speech to been populist and satisfying the politically correct crowd.[/quote]

Locked Out	"Ethnically British"? Would that be "Aryan" by any chance?
BR	I look forward to the arrest of anyone who is racist in this way. Well done our wonderful BBC. More proof of their New Labour agenda.
