walked past him last week near Cannon St getting into his car. Instantly I did the thing that I absolutely detest when I see others doing it and pulled out my phone and started taking pictures.
He's surprisingly taller than I thought :-)11 -

It's an idiotic thing to post.
Looking forward to the posts justifying it.1 -
Has anyone asked what the Senegalese think?1

I see love island was labelled racist yesterday for people using the description as mixed race being a type, non story bit of lighthearted generalisation, as you do get Africans selling sunglasses on beaches in Spain and such, not racist shows what a pc world we now live in.
I don’t know how many things people can be “outraged” about at once, the rise in knife crime, burglaries going up, shit trains - no let’s focus on alan sugar tweeting about lookie lookie men.

I couldn't disagree more, I feel this is a very racist tweet. He's clearly saying they all look the same and stereotyping black Africans IMOpalarsehater said:I see love island was labelled racist yesterday for people using the description as mixed race being a type, non story bit of lighthearted generalisation, as you do get Africans selling sunglasses on beaches in Spain and such, not racist shows what a pc world we now live in.

Putting aside the argument over whether it's racist or not, how bloody stupid is he to tweet it in the first place?
Can he not see how it can be perceived?18 - Sponsored links:

i know we have got irish posters on here so will use that as an example, being part Irish i don't get upset when people say they'll be too pissed to do it or there out crazy paving or things to that affect.
equally my grandad was a glasgow man i regularly make jokes about them being tight.
its light humour - the aim isnt to upset people, as above bit different saying it to your mates down the pub not on twitter with millions of followers and once its out there there is no deleting.

ones own race is superior - obviously if you are the same then no you can't as per above.
he is "tweeting" that some football players looked like some lookie lookie sellers in spain after someone had mocked up a photo of them being portrayed as beach sellers - as i said in my 1st post - non story.0 -

Nothing to do with race.0 -
These players are famous, they are earning big bucks, and they are representing their country at the biggest sporting event in the world fresh off the back of a win.
It could be argued that they wouldn't allow something so ridiculous to affect them right now, but that won't stop the twitter heroes whom are clearly so outraged on the players behalf.0 - Sponsored links:

Are you disagreeing that Sugar was saying they all look the same? I think he was saying that and I think that's a disrespectful thing to do.
Jokes about stereotypes are very common, I accept that, but I personally think this was unfunny and unnecessary.0 -
Completely unfunny from Sugar as usual - still stuck in the 70s.2
