Satire or just plain idiotic?

It's a pity they scrapped it.

If it had been Private Eye you would/could see it as nothing but satire but the Daily Star?

I'll admit I had a chortle but then I can also see how offensive it would be. But at the same time having a right to free speach means having the right to offend.

I'd say we have a responsibility to offend.

If we keep it up, hopefully they'll leave.
