Evidently the word Gammon is racist

[Same_as_before]

I would estimate 75% of Remainers have called me it.

And they're the good guys.

Does that mean calling somebody a pig's racist as well then? Or do they have to be cured first?

 

[HundredRoom]

So is eggs , and fried bread.

Over 13m Remainers have called you a Gammon?

That's some going.

[Muttley]

Shirley "snowflake" is directed at the colour of my skin?

Us poor downtrodden white middle aged guys...

 

[HundredRoom]

Gammon is a cheap stereotype.
Stereotyping is generally not a good idea.

I am not sure it falls under the definition of racism.

It's a lazy insult.

As above is snowflake racist? Gammon is a state of mind which can result in high blood pressure

 

[BlindBoyGrunt]

Relax, it isn't racist.

Well said . Very much like many insults

 

[S7DiscoDown]

Doesn't offend me. I got called a 'typical middle aged gammon' a few weeks ago on twitter.

I was more annoyed about the 'middle aged'..The cheeky fecker

Yep it's another name they will shout at others to get a bite without them being labelled as racist, I'm better than that
