Second post in to this thread and somebody refers to men on the right as gammon. Now, you see this label a lot these days but is this not racist as well?

I've seen people say no, it is just a name. If it based upon the appearance of somebody, and in particular their skin colour, then how can some names be deemed racist and this not? I'm a white male but if I made up a name about black people based on the colour of their skin I know what the reaction would be.
It's our equivalent of a redneck

Its doesnt apply to all white people , in the way **** or wog is applied to asian or black people , it applies to the racist idiots who spend too much time in the sun in hot weather , get pissed up and spout racist abuse
