Guest Bedroom Bully Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 A charity dinner was held in 1995 near Manchester to raise funds for the police. One entertainer invited was Bernard Manning (then 65, pictured left), one of the standup comedians who do the rounds of working menââ¬â¢s clubs in Northern England and notorious for his anti-ethnic jokes.The dinner was attended by some 300 policemen ââ¬â all white except for one black officer. Targeting this single Blackman, Bernard launched into a string of racist jibes. His audience (yes, the police audience) all whooped with delight and cheered him on. Hereââ¬â¢s a sample of the jibes reported in News of the World (April 1995): ââ¬ÅWhere is he? How are you, baby? Having a night out with nice people? Isnââ¬â¢t this better than swinging from the trees? ââ¬â Youââ¬â¢re black, Iââ¬â¢m white. Do you think colour makes a difference? You bet your bollocks it does!ââ¬Âââ¬ÅThey actually think theyââ¬â¢re English because they are born here. That means if a dogââ¬â¢s born in a stable, it is horse.ââ¬Âââ¬ÅThey used to be happy people in the cotton fields, singing their bollocks off day and night. A fella used to go around with a whipââ¬Â¦ ââ¬ËOh, massa, give us another crack of dat whip. I love dat whipââ¬â¢Ã¢â¬Â¦Ã¢â¬Âââ¬ÅA Liverpool docker went to South Africa for a job. The boss tells him: ââ¬ËItââ¬â¢s people like you we want here. Hereââ¬â¢s a test. Thereââ¬â¢s a revolver, go out and shoot 6 niggers and a rabbit.ââ¬â¢ The docker asks: ââ¬ËWhy do I have to shoot the rabbit?ââ¬â¢ He got the job.ââ¬Â The occasion raised ã28,000 for police charities. Said former Liverpool Council leader (Derek Hutton), a dinner guest: ââ¬ÅThe fact it was a police dinner makes it all the more disgustingââ¬Â¦ The black guy could do little about it. He had this embarrassed grin on his face. But the police officers loved it. They were standing on the chairs clapping and cheeringââ¬Â¦Just think, next morning some of them would be patrolling the Moss Side area (which has a large black population)ââ¬Â¦Ã¢â¬Â Labour MP Terry Rooney said he would ask the Home Secretary to investigate, adding that ââ¬Åthese men are defenders of the publicââ¬Â¦ it shows that racist attitudes are still prevalent in the forceââ¬Â¦Ã¢â¬ÂCharacteristically, the victimââ¬â¢s own reaction was not reported. Instead the offender offered to speak for the victim and reconstruct his experience. Said Manning: ââ¬ÅThat (black) constable enjoyed every minute of it. It certainly wasnââ¬â¢t in bad taste.ââ¬Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numero001 Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Bedroom Bully makes me laugh when things like this come up. You claim your gonna have a Black wife, yeah?It was his occupation so based on that I will say he's a racist scum. Whether or not he believed what he was saying I dont know but I can only judge him from what I know and that was scum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUFCCHAMPS2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Never seen one of his shows.Maybe some will be shown on telly now.All manning did was talk out for his own people like everyone does expect ryan.Yeah some of his sh*t was racist and the slave trade should never be joked about but i guess the things he says gets a reaction and hype for his show.
