As usual, a perfectly innocent remark has been blown up out of proportion by these PC

muppets. I'll bet the person who nmade the complaint reads the Guardian, votes "Nu" Labour and thinks Risk Assessments for everything is the greatest idea since sliced bread. It's a perfectly normal expression in everyday colloquial useage to say "X.... looks like...." or "reminds me of ........" . I know to whom she refers and with his hairstyle, I can also see the resemblance. Making this statement doesn't make me a racist either. Haven't these pathetic little tick-tocks got anything better to think about?
