| All he really did is say something a little non PC.
He should have however realised that, in this day and age, that sort of comment will spark faux outrage.

| Why 'faux outrage'?
Personally I find it genuinely disgusting... Perhaps your comment says more about your own world views than you realise?

| FTR, despite all my cynicism, I felt the need to doff my metaphorical cap in the direction of Mr Doyle. I thought the music section was flawless, the NHS element was excellent, if not a little misplaced (Up you, USA..), the historical element was brilliantly visualised and the creation of the O****** rings were nothing short of inspired.
The parade was to be as expected, but I felt the hill of flags added something unique to the ceremony.
McCartney on the other hand..... The only good thing I can think of was that it wasn't Sir Cliff.

| Stupid thing to tweet really, you should know that in this day and age if you say ANYTHING opposing multiculturalism in the UK you may as well shoot your political career in the face. Britain is mostly a better place due to multiculturalism, imagine how boring life would be if we were all toffee-nosed stiff-upper-lip, stick-up-ones- Tories.
Hell

It's a term that closet racists use when they realise they've been called out.

Not so much the Mail and their agenda but personally i think the family of Kane Gorny are right to be angry by it, as they feel let down by them.

They've closed the comments and hidden the six already made. I think they might have already taken an absolute battering over that piece.

I'm not surprised, its probably as close to outright racism that an editor thought they could get without being prosecuted - you can only assume what the original drafts must have been like.
Its good however that the Olympics have driven the extreme right wing commentators and politicians out into the open - we know exactly how their minds work now and where they would like us to be in their utopia - we knew they were still there from the last time a Conservative government was in power, they just don't fly their colours very often, they must be feeling brave now.
