Sorry, no link, will have to type out :-

Rita and Norman Brookhouse's views were condemned as discriminatory. What rot. Since littering and fly-tipping are offences if you and I commit them, surely not requiring one group of people to clean up their mess is what's really racist and dicriminatory.'
Good point. !!
