Susan Devoy is in the news yet again and not to her credit. She's certainly 'lost the plot” this time, together with her team of PC troublemakers.

The phrase ‘wight is wong' was a term I well remember as a huge joke when I was a child.
Suddenly everything we'd become accustomed to became PC. My mother would save the labels from the Robertson's marmalade so I could write for the novelty enamel golliwog. Along with friends, we wore them with pride until they were banned.

We'd eagerly look forward to ‘The Black and White Minstrel Show'' on Sunday evenings and those beautifully-written Enid Blyton books. What harm did they do?

They certainly caused no offence or damage to a child's mind.

We came to this beautiful country more than two decades ago and immediately became ‘Pakeha'. Did we get fussed - of course not.

What happened to humour? If it's to be banned too we'll become a poorer nation indeed.
This Race Relations team only harbours bitterness and hatred. Let's engage in a more enlightened society with a wider perspective.
