Lizzie,
As I remember it, historically, one of the reasons for going to war has always been "for Queen and Country" - that was very much part of my education anyway.
Anyway, as much as you might bluff and bluster, the main points are these. Here we have a family with a history of racist abuse and support for racist regimes. The latest examples are:
"Paki" - as in "Paki-bashing"
"Towel-"head" - as in "Let's go and kick the shit out of some Third-World country". (both of these from somebody who dresses up in a Nazi uniform)
"Fuzzy-Wuzzie" - see above.
"Sooty" - as in some poor creature destined to wander through life with somebody's hand up their arse!
All this from the wealthiest family in the land - thanks to their ability to live off the State.

Question - is such racism (please tell me these terms aren't racist) acceptable from State employees and would it be accepted were it to come from, say, a politician?

Question - would you like a family like this to move into your neighbourhood?

Question - how would you feel if one of them wanted to marry your sister?
