Actually I think you'll find that Islam is not a race so there's no such thing as Islamophobic racism.

But Gammon is.

Andrew Neil on twitter going turbogammon over being called gammon

gammons being upset about being called gammons will never stop being funny
I have a friend who thinks the word 'gammon' is racist and classist. He's also become a Glinner fanboy. It worries me.

What annoys me is, if 'gammon' is classist, how do you account for Nigel Farage? Plenty of middle-class gammons exist.

Not sure you can claim it as race based, considering:

Gammony


Not gammony


Both white.
Ah, Sammy Wilson, NI's Angriest Man.

I always think of gammons as being draped in an England flag, Stella can aloft, chanting "We love you Boris, we do". Like Brendan O'Niell thinks white working class people all are, or atop a horse, off to kill some foxes with some local Tory councillors, starched collar keeping their loathsome blood in their head. Very much not working-class.

Didn't a load of Leicester fans do just that against Liverpool? Because Johnson hates Scousers, so that makes him a total ledge.

It's ironic that Brendan O'Neill claims to be a champion of the working class when he's being bankrolled by millionaires.

He should be retweeting this photo which makes him look like the ultimate pasty Scot on his holidays never to be mistaken for a cooked meat more flavoursome than a boiled chicken breast fed to a sick dog. Denying his ethnicity. Race traitor.

Is it really racist if most of the people calling white people "gammons" are white themselves though? Because I think most of the people using "gammon" as an insult are actually white themselves.

Buelligan

Is there a vegetarian or vegan option?  I think this is the crux of it.

Shoulders?-Stomach!

Madhair is right, they hate it, they absofucking hate it.

Perhaps, like all good insults, it beats to the centre of their condition in an unerringly disarming and silly way.

Wizard of Oz revealed to be a gammon cowering behind a curtain.

Carry on using it, use it more, especially for Andrew Neil, Gammoncaster.

Various shades of gammon.

Beetroot? A head of red lettuces?

Frankly, it'd just be easier if you started up on the pork. It's the principal of the matter!

So coddled, he just undoes his trousers and pisses where he sits, and he has his own sign to notify the cleaner.

I'm often red due to booze or shame or being out of breath, but I'm a bit too young, and much too poor and unracist to be a gammon. Am I culturally appropriating them or they me? #notallgammons.

Gulftastic

Maybe they can reclaim the word? Start calling each other 'My Gammon!' when they meet up.

"Hello, shitty right-wing cunt. Would you like an excuse to deflect criticism from the horrible, shitty things you're doing? Fine. We don't really want anything to change either, so here goes: your skin is the same colour as gammon and that is bad.

Happy to help."

That would require the capacity for self-deprecating humour, and not taking oneself too seriously. So it's a big no from the gammons, Clive.

hiya Paul. keep those hot takes coming!

Old Nehamkin

Affluent, middle-aged white Tory voters getting so rattled by leftist shitposters making fun of them that they have to desperately grasp at the language of the civil rights movement to defend themselves is a patently ridiculous and funny situation and trying to actually engage with this kind of bad-faith "well actually" nonsense (which would just be returned in a slightly modified form for whichever specific insult or meme you could effectively level at this crowd) is an absurd waste of time and energy. Might as well just sit back and enjoy the fact that this one has so evidently got under the (purple, blotchy) skin of the world's biggest bunch of entitled, whingeing cunts.
