and just to add I was born in England but went to live in Scotland from the age of eight, my father being Scottish and no lover of the English. I had many what would be called 'non PC' comments aimed at me, I prefer to tell the truth, they were slurs and insults, they were especially frequent at Easter as I was according to some a 'Jesus killer'. I know very well the difference between commenting on someone just to be able to point someone out and the remarks that are horrible to be on the end of which I still do receive.
I didn't think Aussies still had a chip on their shoulders about their beginnings, it seems some have. the world has moved on enormously, they should to.
Can anyone imagine what the reaction would be if that was said to a black guy?
