Apparently he's been rapped over the knuckles several times. GOD knows for what though!
If an unpopular HM had implied Sophie was trailer trash there would have been uproar.

I agree !
far too many people are willing to be offended by just about anything - the problem is, when people really come up against offensive terms or behaviour, it's not believed to be such.
I think with the benefit of hindsight, Dexter would not have said what he said, and I don't believe he meant to be offensive, but he should have thought what he was saying could be taken the wrong way. 
If you have to think about every word you utter before speaking, then nobody would say anything spontaneous...it wasn't meant in a bad way, that was obvious

Sophie is of traveller stock, some live in caravans some don't.....trailer trash wasn't mentioned as far as I know
Yep, I completely forgot the HL show was on tonight. 
I bet I have missed the bestest show ever.

No it's the second or third. There was one when my Hubby interrupted things.

that's the problem Kaytee - it's got to the stage where we do have to watch every word we say - said as someone who recently got accused of being racial against Irish people despite being Irish myself - it's getting out of control

Had he used that phrase, I'm sure more people would have been offended - but that wasn't what he said.

It is...it all depends on the context and some people are far too ready to be offended, whether they really are or not is open to conjecture

totally agree - some people see a lot of mileage in being offended which means those that really do suffer abuse for racial/sexual/ whatever reason, aren't taken seriously
GET WOLFY OUT......can't argue with that
Does Dan have any idea how ridiculous his behaviour is?
