Why is it that when you see Politicians,or Royalty on TV visiting, the hospital, the school, the factory or even meeting people on the street, it is mainly an ethnic minority they stop to talk to?

Political correctness ethnic person, disabled person, old person woman, man I am waiting for the fat person to be on this list then I might get a look

Really? I thought they usually stopped to talk to late middle-aged women clutching bouquets.

Well they have to follow the Political Correctness guidelines don't they!......... and besides which these are probably the ones that are on benefits and have the time whilst the rest of us are at work.
Of course, it could be that the "ethnic minority" are the only ones left in that particular area!

"...it is mainly an ethnic minority they stop to talk to..."

Do you have any statistics to back up this insightful theory, anotheoldgit?

[Dassie]

brachiopod.......If you watched the TV news you'd have all the statistics you need. I normally play "spot the person" it's so obvious........oh.... and did you mean incite or insight ?
I'm with anotheoldgit on this one.

I refer you to Dassi's excellent answer.

Afraid not YvonneM, In this age of Political Correctness, you are forever condemned to roam the wildness along with the smokers.
