"Timmargh"

I've just been forwarded a load of emails to do with disability.

It says here:

"The government's own 'Minister for disabled people' (Anne McGuire) refers to herself as just that. Many disabled people find the term 'people with disabilities' offensive and most of the major disability charities - RADAR, Scope etc - use the term 'disabled people'. The Department for Work and Pensions who lead on disability issues also use this preferred term."

What the fu..? Unless I've gone mental that's saying that the term 'people with disabilities' is offensive, while the term 'disabled people' is not.

I don't know any other wheelies I can ask - can you explain this horsesh!t to me?

i agree, that does sound a little sinister

Is it just me or is that "I once watched my nan" bit a really sinister image?

Hahah.

I utterly hate Ricky Gervais as a stand up comic, one of THE least funny people I've ever had to watch, and I once watched my nan.

His cat mounts him, I saw it on the first video.

no he doesn't mount anyone, but i i watched it and i laughed alot, good comedian.

No. Is he on them because they have less chance of running away from his fat face in disgust?

Has anyone seen Ricky Gervais on disabled people in the Politics video?

love it.
