Hello TWR - nice to see you away from motoring for a change.
We need a committee (of whom?) to go through the English Language and determine what may and may not be said, some examples of alternates:

Irishman: P-word
Asian : P-word
Welsh: SS-word
Black : N-word
Chinese: C-word
White: White trash, honkey, anything else you fancy
Scottie: J-word, SJ-words
Corner shop: P-shop
Blackboard: Large writing surface

ect ect
