Here we go again, the usual suspects jumping up and down shouting racism just because someone dares to raise an issue they don't agree with.

"I believe it is racist for the reasons I state above"

like a fair few others on here, doesnt take much for you does it...always looking for something....seek and ye shall find !

Baz,
I look forward to you answering the question, and your well thought out and reasoned arguments that the meme is not racist.

I was merely addressing your point /// A so called artist, in one of the worlds richest countries, labels them economic migrants. He is either very stupid, extremely cynical or more likely, just a xenophobic right wing bigot. ///

/// labels them economic migrants. ///

I see no mention of an art work there, but I do notice reference to 'economic migrants'.

No it is not 'Racist' it is just Satire.

[Gromit]

Satire isn't much of a defence because satire can also be racist.

Is anyone one prepared to post a reasoned argument of why this artwork is NOT racist?
Many of you have defaulted to it isn't racist without explaining how you came to that conclusion.
