Can I just say, “get a life”?
A black man has had a whinge that his complaint about a market trader hasn’t been taken seriously enough.
The market trader, foul heathen fiend that he is, has been selling … I can hardly bring myself to say it … Golliwoggs.
Apparently, the man brings children from ethnic minorities to Market Drayton and he thinks they might be offended by the toys. Market Drayton is a town in a field in rural Shropshire. Immigrant population, excluding livestock, could probably be counted on one hand.
There are a couple of options this man has. He could try going somewhere where he won’t be exposed to a black faced child’s doll. Africa or Asia perhaps. Alternatively he could get a life and accept the fact that 99.9% of the population don’t find Golliwoggs offensive.
