My gran had a dog called the "n" word back in the day, and I recall buying a winter coat which was sold as that colour |

Harriet Harmen is calling for him to be sacked. It is the likes of her that causes Racism problems. I frequently used the N word and lots of others like it. As I come from North London I had a lot of Black friends and they and their families never took offence. |

My mate, who was a guerrilla fighter against apartheid at one time, finds our attitude to racism quite amusing. |

My hearing's pretty good and I heard exactly what he said. I think it was a Freudian slip, but he definitely said it. |

The 'N' word was the version I knew as a child. As Island says, no nastiness intended, I certainly wasn't familiar with the word 'racism'. Does anyone remember that along with 'bottle green', 'navy blue', 'battleship grey' we had 'N word brown'. |

It was the N word when I was a child. We'd rattle it of with no nasty intent as 'that word' wasn't considered to be racist then. So I can understand how Clarkson almost said it. |

A while back I worked alongside a ( now what is the politically correct word as it has changed so often ) I shall say black girl. We were asked for one of us to do a job neither of us liked very much. |
