I received this in my inbox today. I know it's on a slight tangent but is this a racist joke in bad taste, a joke not to be taken seriously, a concern of a white British citizen put humorously or a possibility etc etc?
Back to the subject I feel that any elected political party should be allowed on Question Time to express their views and should not be censored by the BBC. This is a free country and anyone should be allowed to express their views irrespective of whether you agree with them or not.
