I completely agree, dropping the Robertson’s golliwog was political correctness gone mad as was cancelling the black and white mistral show

The true story of the product was that Mr Robertson saw some children playing with a homemade doll that was black, that’s not racist,the children actually called a a Dollwog and for some reason he misheard the name but used Gollywog to promote his products.
This was over 100 years ago.
A few years ago the owners of a pub refused to take their Golly down and several police cars arrived as someone objected to them on display.

The comedian Jim Davidson can’t say Chalky anymore, the local council’s try to stop the comedian doing a show at the theatres nationwide and it’s the same for Roy Chubby Brown, as Lance Corporal Jones said in Dad’s Army , they don’t like it up ‘em!
Black and white TV (sorry television ) or coloured television , messed up world.
