Here we go. Chippy, over-sensitive us." Well, yes. Although I'm still concerned about this 'us' thing you keep falling back on. "There is a context for my plea to an end to the sinophobia." There you go again. Sinophobia? Straw man arguments will get you nowhere. I'm quite comfortable rejecting the premise of any statement that deliberately sets out to misrepresent my position. And then you call upon foot and mouth disease as your key witness. You can't be serious. Can you? "...pressing buttons on issues of race is negative but the government evidently finds it effective or they wouldn’t keep doing it." Just so you know, there is only one of two things going on here. Either a) your sensitivities (yes, that word again) perceive racism in the BBC's content where none exists, or b) you seek to deflect a debate that you're not comfortable with. "To me it’s drearily recurring annoyance." So we're going with a) in this case. It's been lovely to have you visit my humble corner of cyberspace. You're welcome to come again; but please, no more straw. @ Anna

“Oh dear. Here we go. Chippy, over-sensitive us.”

Well, yes. Although I’m still concerned about this ‘us’ thing you keep falling back on.
