Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

@Gerry, you are the black woman I had a rather fruitless conversation with and who castigated all those "worthless" (her word) blacks who hadn't achieved what she had. . .

Right, so you are claiming that it's racist for white people to be proud of any black ancestry they might have? Genealogical appropriation?


No I'm just asking why you would be proud of someone simply for the colour of their skin. It would be like me saying I am delighted to have Swedish ancestors. Why does them being a certain nationality or race matter? Would you have been disappointed if you had only white ancestors?

It's like a weird parody of the south park where randy wants to have native Indian ancestors to prove how woke he is.

I wouldn't be happy or sad if I found out one of my ancestors was a different race. It's just not a big deal to most normal people. I would be much more interested in what an ancestor did than the colour of their skin. If you simply said you were interested to find out about your black relative that would have been less weird. Saying you were "delighted" to have a black ancestor is definitely weird.

As MLK said "I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character".

I disagree with some of their opinion, fundamentally disagree some of the time, but agree with others. I'm happy to discuss those opinions, and I very much suspect that my opinions would be disagreed with by BoJO supporters some of the time, fundamentally so on some issues, but on other issues we would find common ground.

By and large BoJo doesn't resort to profanity and petulant insults, and if he did I'd have zero respect for the manner in which they expressed their opinions.

Saxons were from Saxony, a province in a Germany. Prince Albert was born in the Saxon duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, so they could be related.
However, the Germans may have been a bit too “Lefty” for him.

You're correct about the name of the Saxon duchy, although Prince Albert's title was actually Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. In WW1 the German sounding name and the fact that Gotha bombers were flying over Britain promped a change in the Royal family name to House of Windsor... Madeye-Smiley

A bit extreme, admittedly.

Hmm...just as anyone with the slightest element of social compassion is labelled a lefty let's see a reasoned argument why the renaming of a ski resort in California is an attack on our white anglo saxon culture.? It's a bonkers claim to make. But hey ho enjoy a good bit of righteous pomposity at the guardianista mafia.

Seems like it's a tough life being a winner in the Brexit wars. You simply can't accept you've won without moaning more and more about those who don't agree with you.

As I said, the renaming of this ski area is perfectly reasonable. I had no idea that the word squaw was an insult. I thought it just meant woman or wife in the native language.
