Um, a guy did good as an SP bookie who also didn’t mind a punt on the nags. Oh, and his father-in-law owned a Golden Slipper winner. Perfect criteria for canonisation I ‘d say. (re The News Ltd-backed National Rugby League (NRL) ). Who are you to say News Ltd (or anyone for that matter) shouldn’t get away with turning him into a saint. You can leave your moralistic objections to an award being name after such an individual at the church door. Thanks

Jocular remarks about Jews or aboriginals are maybe in bad taste and/or racist,but the same type of jokes about ,say, the Irish are acceptable. I wonder why?
After all the Irish have suffered discrimination in the past in this country, and others.

Strange fires in highly insurable buildings have been referred to as Jewish stocktaking sales ever since my grandmother was a mere slip of a girl. As to how it has suddenly become worthy of being a rumour absolutely defeats me. If anyone decides that my comment is racist. Go suck your bum. Steve: I. Irish jokes are funny because most people believe that the Irish do, in fact, have a sense of humour. Which is more than can be said for all the political correct. 2. If it makes you feel any better there was a time when all the Irish jokes that we doing the rounds in Australia, ended up in England being told as ‘Australian jokes’.
