    Yeah. About as Scottish as fucken Blade Thompson.

    They love her over there, even gave her a prize at the Edinburgh comedy festival.

    They're a nation of dour, unfunny, pasty, tightarse fluffybunnies in a country with terrible weather.

    They'd probably love Ursula Carlson too.

    any idea why our comedians are so crap? The aussies have loads of very good ones and we have twats like Jeremy Elwood and Paul Ego and the rest of the 7 days organ banks.

    That's actually a pretty good question. Billy T James and Leigh Hart are the only ones I can think of who are worth mentioning and BTJ is dead.....

    Is heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ??????????

    Yeah, there is. You're shit. Saw her on some UK panel show an it was just one big long total fucken cringe. God knows how she won that comedy award.

    Nailed it, she's dire and comedy is being taken over by pc loons.

    That's f%$ken disgusting. These PC piston wristed gibbons want to destroy everything. How to devastate hundreds of kids in one swoop.

    And what do the want to achieve out of this? Better race relations? Retarded.

    I dont have an issue with them having the Maori fella in a Korowai, but claiming him to be Santa is where they fucked up.

    If you want to add the Kiwi side of things, have a jolly old fella with a beard, a red hat in reds shorts and jandals.

    But you call it a Santa Parade, you have Santa, if you aint gonna have Santa (which is a specific character) then call it a Christmas Parade and dont say Santa will be there.

    They were discussing this on Breakfast this morning, and as usual, Hayley doing her bit to make me dislike her even more...she was incredulous when the other female presenter said Santa has to be a man too!

    Santa is Married to Mrs Clause and they arent gay.

    Yes alot about Santa might be un-PC, but seriously, what Santa stands for is to give kids something magical to believe in (for a short period in thier lives) in a fucked up world right now, lets not take that off them so soon.

    Hhhmm, rant over.

    I really don't see how they thought that Santa would fly with the kids. Not the end of the world but pretty annoying.

    @taniwharugby yeah well said. I see the news reporting it as a "mixed reaction" when all I've seen from the public has been overwhelmingly negative. There's a million ways to incorporate Maori culture into a Christmas parade, and it'd be cool if they did, but to actually change Santa just kills it for the kids there. I have really fond memories of Christmas and Santa growing up, it's all positive, I don't see why people want to ruin that.

    @taniwharugby Yep. Santa is an old bloke that wears red and has a grey beard. That's who the fictional character is.

    The tooth fairy isn't a bloke (cue gay, fairy, etc, jokes that would be inappropriate).

    The Easter bunny is a rabbit.

    Micky is a mouse.

    Donald is a duck (or president).

    Ludicrous, the whole thing.

    Are you not "normal sized"?

    And no, it isn't news, and I shouldn't have read it.
