There seems to be a class of people who get up each morning and think "What simple thing can I criticise today. What aspect of everyday life can I vilify as racist or sexist or some other ist. Surely I can spoil somebody else's pleasure by pointing out that there is a one in a hundred million chance that it may offend."
Many of the population, like me, must be completely baffled by these illogical complaints, the latest of which is the Audi car advert showing a young girl eating a banana in front of a parked car!! I really think these people should apply there energies to more pressing problems in the world such as poverty, starvation, modern slavery or any other evil which plagues this Earth.
