    I suppose it all depends where you live your real life? For me the answer is no but for Monty I suppose it's a yes.

    We don't even need a debate about this, it's objectively measurable - we can measure the population and we can measure the representation on TV - Ofcom does exactly that.

    People who live in predominantly white communities probably think minorities are over represented. People who live in highly multicultural communities no doubt think TV is too underrepresentative, as CAM rightly alludes.

    People are quite simple and often unable to consider the wider world outside of the bubble they inhabit.

    So, what does Ofcom's research tell us?

    Not only are people from minorities under represented. Older people and women are also. As are working class people.

    Of course.

    It's either meant to normalise it before it happens for real.

    Or all the advertising companies are based in London where it is normal.

    Suck my salami, d*ckbrain. At least I didn't take the greenback and run. I'm still fighting for England. I take comfort that my abusers are ex-pats and ******* speculators.

    Really? I read Cam's comments exactly as they were meant to be read, ie that he's a superior guy and I'm just an old racist. He got the reply he deserved. You guys seem to miss nuances.

    Patty, I read your ridiculous comment on the Gills thread so you can take a hike.
