There's been a lot of talk recently about the great man, but if you had to choose, which would you prefer as your head of state?
Personally I think a compromise is in order. If the Americans agree to put the Queen's head on their stamps then I think its only fair if we put their President back on our JamJar's. Discuss!
....:blink:
ummmm.......
Crikey mate, that's an inflammatory statement if ever there was one, president back on the jam jar. I don't suppose our American members will know but Robertsons Jam used to have a golliwog figure as their logo on the jam they sold.
I'll assume that wasn't intended as a derogatory remark and say I prefer the Queen as head of state. I'm no monarchist but she keeps out of my life, unlike the president/prime minister.

I remember growing up collecting the cut out Gollywogs without knowing what they really symbolised.
Best left in Enid Blyton adventures and historical folklore me thinks.
We've learned an important lesson here today kids, dont get lashed then visit your good old friends at Grand Old Team.

Well traditionally the White Mans fear of the Black man. Gollywogs lived in the Dark scary places of the world youd rather not visit.
I think they kind of got phased out in the late eighties.
After doing a little reading on the golliwog it seems it was a story book character writen by a young girl in 1895 and europeans took the little character to their hearts. It only seems to become a racist symbol when certain groups both black and white who just love to be offended decided it was racist.

mmmmmmm, how to end up ostracised with a comment that probably wont get forgotten.
i dont remember any jam with a president on tbh , given that we have never had a president over here it doesnt suprise me. i think you will probably be remembered now for your bigoted racist remark walter.
in fact did you think about that before you typed it or did you consider it a joke, a la 1970's working mens clubs ?

You have to look at the amount of racism back then though. It was a normal part of life.
