Bicyclist, does that mean he bats for both sides? I love that euphemism. "You know Carruthers, grand chap, mind you, he bats for the other side." Must play for Yorkshire.

The "Famous Five" will be off to Kirrin Island when they read this bollox...

My lad was brought up on them, and as far as I can tell he hasn't turned out to be racist or xenophobic. I keep thinking we must have reached peak woke, then something like this comes along.
At the risk of offending who knows who:-
Copied from Jim Parsons:
As a man, I used to think I was pretty much just a regular person, but I was born white, into a two-parent household which now, whether I like it or not, makes me "Privileged", a racist & responsible for slavery.
I am a fiscal & moral conservative, which by today's standards, makes me a fascist because I plan, budget & support myself.
I went to Secondary School, got professionally qualified & have always held a job. I now find out that I am not here because I earned it, but because I was "advantaged”.
I am hetero***ual, which now makes me a homophobe. I am not a Muslim, which now labels me as an infidel .
I am older than 50, making me a useless eater, a Gammon, who doesn't understand Facebook, Instagram, or Snapchat.
"I think & I reason, and I doubt much of what "mainstream" media tells me, which makes me a "Right-wing conspiracy nut”.
I am proud of my heritage & our inclusive British culture, making me a xenophobe.
I believe in hard work, fair play, & fair compensation according to each individual's merits, which today makes me an anti-socialist.
I believe our system guarantees freedom of effort - not freedom of outcome or subsidies which makes me a borderline sociopath.
I believe in the defence & protection of Great Britain for & by all citizens, now making me a militant.
I am proud of our flag, what it stands for and the many who died to let it fly, so I must be an imperialist and a racist.
Please help me come to terms with the new me because I'm just not sure who I am anymore !
Funny - it all took place over the last 7 or 8 years !!
If all this nonsense wasn't enough to deal with, now I don't even know which toilet to use !!
I'm a product from the ravages of the second World War, a boy from the buildings as we used to say. Went to school with the seat of my trousers hanging out, sometimes with a hole in my shoe.
Have to admit it was great being raised a 'Privileged' white boy!
Latest example tonight at Wembley they played music and cheering over the loudspeakers to drown out the booing of the knee by all the Jim Parsons lookalikes in the crowd.
I thought we were at war..?
