Na then mi owd **** sparra. Seing tha monitoring this site tha may as well answer a few simple questions anmd earn the wages which most of us on here pay. I hope they are simple enough for thee. Q1. Should Ritchie stay or should he go? Q2. If a Pakistani man describes himself has being a Paki is he being a raceist? The reason I ask Q2 is thats what my old mate Arshad Mamood use to call himself.
I was on the M25 on Thursday when a Green BMW passed me, with the number plate P9 AKY,</p> In the corner of the number plate was a small flag of pakistan and the numbers and letters were arranged to read PPAKY. The guy driving the car was asian.</p> I hate racism and I smiled at this as this showed that we all sometimes need a sense of humour.</p> BTW I abhor the kind of comments posted by Ritchie is god, they have no place in a civilised society</p>
The word 'Paki' is the official abreviation of Pakistani, as 'Brit' is to British. I also know an Arshad Mahmood - probably a few around I reckon!
Ash as Arshad wanted to be called came to England when he was 15 and didn't have one word of English. I trained with him on a PGCE (FE) course at Holly Bank, Huddersfield Poly as it was then. Could it be the same Ash?
